26 Thoughts and One to Grow On

First, some things you may not know about me

1) I am seriously weary of people who do not appreciate Seinfeld's humor.

2) I know six programming languages. I don't know how to use them, but I know they exist.

3) I am extremely possessive of my desserts.

4) I use only my index finger when typing with my left hand. This was news to me when I discovered it three months ago. I do not know if this has always been the case, but I can't seem to change it.

5) Ice cream burps are my fave, followed closely by doughnut and guacamole burps. If you have never had a delicious burp, I pity you. It's a non-caloric treat.

6) I had no front tooth for four years. And rocked that look every minute.

Things I ponder

7) Is the speed limit really being enforced by aircraft?

8) How much money do grocery stores lose from people mislabeling their produce during self checkout? Is it worth the money they save in staffing?

9) At what level of static does the average American change the radio station?

10) Why does every oil change turn into a $300 excursion?

11) Is it socially acceptable to pluck one's eyebrows at an ATM? Those mirrors have the most incredible lighting.

12) How many malicious workers shake carbonated beverages before stocking them and get silent satisfaction knowing they exploded all over someone?


Pet Peeves

13) Excessive hash-tagging. If you can't make your point in six hash-tags, it's not worth making.

14) Anyone who says they know what it is like to be a Cleveland fan because they have one mediocre team. O, I'm sorry, Detroit, the Lions are terrible? I seem to remember the Pistons and Tigers winning championships in the past ten years. Your sports history is not as tragic. Don't take that from us.

15) People who say they love summer then complain about the heat.

16) Business emails beginning with, "I just wanted to reach out." Obviously. That is implied by you sending me an email. Tell me something I don't know like, "I had no desire to reach out, but my boss is going to throw a fit if I do not."


Random thoughts:

17) This is post number 69. Well, kind of. There are a couple drafts included in the count, but I am not deleting them so this can be 69.

18) I am getting my car inspected today. It expired last September.

19) Chipotle. I just think about Chipotle a lot.

20) Occasionally I remember it is not a dream; Lebron has returned and, realistically, Cleveland could win a championship in my lifetime. Then I smile. Then the Browns lose.

21) I think my neck is generally sore from balancing and supporting my big head.

22) One should always buy hoodies two sizes too large. They are not meant to be flattering. They are meant to be comfortable.


Things I spend too much time pondering

23) Cider vs IPA: Crisp, light, refreshing vs hoppy, heavy, and rich. Both so good once they hit your lips. Bahhh. Give me both.

24) How much money does the Smoked BBQ truck man make? And why did Zocalo stop having dance parties?

25) Hypothetical hubby - professional country star vs tennis player: Rugged, strong, American vs suave, smooth, sensational. And both so good once they hit your lips*. Bahhh. Give me both. And Mark Wahlberg.

26) Could I make a living being a socialite?

Finally, one to grow on.
