It just kept going and going

I almost ran over Chip, or Dale or Theodore this morning.

DWest was as good as ever last night. So, much for him losing his rhythm due to that nasty injury. Welcome back, Delonte.

  • I am a catalyst for excitement.

My goal for like the previous 5 years has been to take a girl to at least one pancake breakfast in March. I am currently 0 for 5 in those years. The same goal is in effect this year. Wish me luck.

All my life I've had problems with my shoelaces They come untied about 5 times as many times as anyone elses. I even double knot them sometimes. Tomorrow, I need to keep a running tally of how many times I tie them. Watch it be zero.

  • So, that totally back fired on me.

  • Lost a friend who never really was.

Took a shower at the Y today. Significance of this you ask? All I did prior to this was watch sports center.

Difference between what I write on here and what it is I'm writing about is that no one has to read this if they don't want to. Where as I can't just turn my listening ears on and off. I guess I can pretend too, but it's not like I can wear ear plugs to work or around people I don't want to listen to at that moment or shut my ears up with my fingers or walk away.

Why is it rude to wear a hat inside? I never understood that, people wear hats in domes. Did cowboys take their hats off in saloons? I can maybe picture a few on the counter, but most of them are wearing them. I don't like being told what I can or can't do when it doesn't effect anything in the big scheme of things.

I wish I could wear my hat whenever I felt like it. I could in college that was sweet.

One time I had this bruise, I was embarrassed about, right between my eyebrows so I just wore a knit hat for a month that covered it even though it was like 80 degree weather the entire time. I can't believe I just wrote about that.


I wonder if you can wear hats in high school yet? Cell phones have drastically changed high school I bet. Texting in class instead of passing notes. It really is remarkable how far we've come and all that has changed.

Instead of having a three foot cord and having to talk in the kitchen in front of your family. Now you can go to your room or even outside. Driving in your car for crying out loud. Sounds stupid to talk about, but oh the things we take for granted.

At least I was young enough to get to wear light up shoes and even the pump up shoes. Man were those sweet. I would pump them all day, feel like I was on top of the world. Little basketball shaped thing.

Now they have shirts that light up, pants, bracelets, hats, hair things, pretty much anything you can think of they have a light up for nowadays.
I wonder if this makes children more or less interested in lightning bugs.

If a kid is crying because they are sad all you have to do is find something that fascinates them, interests them, makes them curious, puzzled, baffled by and they will calm down. I know that if this one girl cries all I have to do is give her a pen to hold and shes happy. My eye glass case will distract them for hours during nap time.

I use to seriously love The Little Mermaid sound track. My sister use to have it on cassette and say 6 or so years ago I drove around with it in my car. It seriously had some good tunes on it, man. Okay I'm a big dork, but I'm not gay. Anyways, now I hear it everyday from the baby room and I'm slowly starting to hate it.

I seriously need to stop cracking my knuckles or I'm going to have super bad arthritis in ten years if not sooner.

I really wanted to watch the end of the Nascar race and the Cavs game last night and switch back and forth between them, but I couldn't watch either because on one T.V. they were watching the award show, Oscars I think or whichever one it is and on the other T.V. they were taping Oliver Twist of all things. So yea, I was totally screwed over.

I don't think it's good for habit forming reasons to let a child lay on you during nap time, but that's what someone at work did.

At 2:20 Pm I told myself I was hungry. Maybe I'll treat myself to something special after work, I thought to myself. Is there anywhere good to go to on Mondays? Anywhere have a good special? I've been in search of somewhere for a long time now. I ended up getting curly fries again.

Quotes of the day: (Yes I felt like having two, so back off, haha, they are the same topic at least)

you want the real reason..... it's similar to why men tipped their hats back in the old days and i believe carried from there.... it was a sign of respect showing you were clean and didn't have any bugs! don't forget back int he old days, that is why men tipped their hats to women and removed their hats inside. men also wore things like top hats, bowlers, etc and the comfort level was not that of a baseball cap. it's considered rude because hats are meant to be casual or for warmth.

women's hats were not baseball caps either but generally adoren with flowers and such - it was more a clothing accessory and a sign of modesty.

My shoe laces always come untied, too. So I don't really wear shoes with laces.

I love the Little Mermaid. I downloaded the soundtrack on my computer recently.

Oliver Twist was good!
