Random Musings: Volume 2

It’s been one of those days - there are thoughts and many of them, however I feel they will best be expressed through random thoughts instead of true emotion. Yes, it is avoidant. No, I do not care. (Okay, I care, but I can’t WANT to care right now. We good? Good.)

  1. Watching Dear Evan Hansen (with or without wine) when you’ve had an emotionally trying day is a bad, BAD idea.

  2. It is amazing what trained firemen will admit to not knowing during random conversations.

  3. Why is some kielbasa pointy at the ends and some has rounded ends? Which is better? Why?

  4. How do gnats get in your house if you don’t go outside? Asking for a friend…okay fine, I’m asking for myself. But seriously do they just sprout from thin air????

  5. Do gnats serve any other purpose than to annoy you when you’re using a backlit device or providing a heads up when it is best to avoid citrus fruit?

  6. I bought a book with 50 easy guitar songs for acoustic guitar that I apparently MUST know. Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters” is considered easy with a measly 15 chord changes. I can’t remember if I put deodorant in both armpits, but I’m going to remember FIFTEEN chords.

  7. “Horse with No Name” has two chords. That’s pretty easy. Two armpits. Two chords. Got it.

  8. Due to the weird weather, we’ve been getting palmetto bugs in the house from time to time. I’ve been finding my inner warrior and have engaged in a little hand to hand combat. I was feeling pretty proud of myself until I walked outside today to take out the trash, saw a spider and nearly fell down. It is important to note that this spider only had five legs and was most likely dead. The rational thoughts did not occur to me until I was safely back in the house and breathing normally. (It may or may not have taken five or six minutes, give or take 3 seconds, to achieve said normalcy).

  9. Use real butter, even if you end up with a package of “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” because it was free with the purchase of some other random thing. There is no comparison. Also, when your husband refers to it as Fabio’s “secretions” you will search the entire fridge for something else to spread on toast.

  10. After today’s transfer gone wrong, the proclamation that I was going to the bathroom was noted to be an example of “mocking the crippled”. Please note for the record that there was no intent and therefore I wager he would have a hard time convincing a jury.

  11. There is a lot of true crime television available to those who are not inclined to watch reality television or children’s programming…or anything starring Dolph Lundgren.

  12. My husband loves Dolph Lundgren.

  13. And Arnold Schwarzenegger.

  14. Yes I had to use Google to spell that. I dare you to do it without looking.

  15. I fell, not once but twice, a couple of weeks ago with no lasting injuries. I brought in a 5 gallon bottle of water the other day and have been nearly immobilized for days. Make it make sense.

  16. Why did Amazon Prime Video change their menu? It is impossible to figure out what I can watch for free and what requires me to sit through advertisements or give someone monies. I am watching Madam Secretary again on Netflix instead.

  17. My cats have the ability to know exactly when to snuggle with Brent or I to calm us if we are anxious, or even climb up on top of us to lick the tears from our eyes when we are crying. However, they cannot take a hint when I am shoving them off a chair or my bed that I want them to move.

  18. If cats are the guardians of the underworld, what does it mean when they sleep on top of your shoes?

  19. I sing loudly and unapologetically with noise canceling headphones on. This isn’t a joke - unless you are unfortunate enough to be in the room when this occurs. That is downright funalicious.

  20. Lego video games should not be difficult for adults. Let’s revisit the jumping puzzles and the stupid boat steering in Jurassic World. I’d really like to 100% it - thank you for your consideration.
