  Oops forgot to post this yesterday. Hope this holds you over for 2 weeks. You won't be hearing from me until after that.

  The other day I was leaving for work and mom was telling me to drive 5 car lengths behind the car in front of me. She was not kidding.

  I really hate that I look like I'm a teenager.

  I rarely cry. People who read this blog probably know that but I have recently discovered something I found groundbreaking. I may or may not be wrong but lets be honest, I think I'm right. You see when I cry, I cry...there is no coming back from it. Puffy eyes. Sniffling. The works. Probably because it happens so rarely. But with criers, I've recently noticed one second they can be fine, then be crying and come out the end of the same sentences not crying. It's an amazing skill in which I do not have...and I wonder if it’s a skill a person develops when they become a crier. If they cried like I did every time they cried, oh boy...they'd never have a real conversation.

  I've been doing these random and useless posts for a year this month. Not sure if I’ll continue.

  Listened to Christmas music for the first time on October 19th. I don't follow rules. But in my defense, Spotify recommended this to me, so I clicked out of curiosity. Thumbs up.

  I'm always in defense mode. Wherever I am, I hate - hate my back to people. Restaurants, church, just standing in a room etc -- I like a wall or something behind me, so I know any harm that could possibly happen is visible to me for the sole purpose of protecting myself or someone else.

  I love 1/4 zip/button shirts/pullovers. This is my weakness. More specifically NorthFace ones. I start on The North Face website where I can see all the ¼ in one place then I go over to Moosejaw and look at them. I have a problem.

  There is one exception to the [unspoken] co-holding a hymnal rule. If you're married, your husband can hold it himself while you daintily sing. Possibly even dating. If not, that thing is heavy to hold up by yourself for 6 stanzas. Hold the other side, folks.

  It’s official, I am not as young as I used to be. The other week, I stayed up until 1 twice and midnight another night. That used to never phase me and I would actually stay up later and more consistently than that, now I struggle to function the next day. That week I found myself taking a nap on Saturday at 3 pm, so I could be alive to do something Saturday night. Ha.

  Another unspoken rule and no, the two rules were thought about at different times. I digress. There is an unspoken cross your leg rule. I feel so confined when one person on one side of me is crossed left and the other person on the other side is crossed right. Let me just sit here without crossing my legs trying not to get in the way of your feet dangling in my area. It's unspoken but really, if you all cross the same way, it makes the world a better place.

  I have zero care for Halloween. No particular reason, I just don't.

  I will never understand those kids at the bus stop standing outside in the cold plus drizzling rain or snow when their parent is sitting in the [warm] car waiting for the bus. Dumb child. Get in the car.
