Random Thoughts (Mostly Stolen)

My Mom sent this email to me and I just had to share it, just in case you haven't seen it before.

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer's history if you die.


There was a time when this was TOTALLY true, but honestly, now I am pretty boring. Though the other day I tried looking something up on YouTube and for some reason I thought it was UTube....trust me DON'T type in UTube...not a good thing!


2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.


Yeah, but good luck getting me to admit to that.


3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.


If babies and toddlers understood how good they have it. What I would give for someone to tell me to take a nap.


4. There is great need for a Sarcasm font.


Nooo...you think?


5. How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?


What? You mean rolling it into a ball isn't the proper way to fold a fitted sheet?


6. Was learning cursive really necessary?


Actually, I am starting to think learning to write at all might not be necessary with computers.


7. MapQuest needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my own damn neighborhood.


That's if MapQuest can even find your house to begin with.


8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.


OK...I know I might sound morbid but I have to agree. Don't you wonder why people die when you read an obit? Human nature, my friends, human nature.


9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.


Nope, not a clue but I bet it was the last time I was told to take a nap!


10. Bad decisions make good stories.


My entire life must be a good story then...may be I should write a book.


11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.


Hmm...might have been about the time I opened my email and decided to blog about it.


12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection . . . again.


I am now finding the biggest reason to NOT have your kids over a decade apart is because of this issue. 99% of our Disney collection is still on VHS, lot of good that does me.


13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to the ten-page paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.


Hey Microsoft....please explain WHY it does that.


14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this -- ever.


No...it means I won't BUY it.


15. I hate it when I miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!) but when I immediately call back it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?


I know the real truth you call as a show of good will just HOPING no one will really answer and then when they call back you don't have to answer but they can't say you didn't call. Well, I am on to you.


16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day . . . What a waste.


Or even worse...not having anyone notice how great you look, specially your husband. GRRR!!!!


17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.


Good idea.


18. My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day, "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How do I respond to that?


I am thankful that hasn't happened but trust me, there have been questions that made me scratch my head.


19. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

Mine does!


20. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay.

LOL...but those kisses probably lead to some great stories.
