A few things I've learned in the past week:
1.) If you get a gut feeling about something, it's probably right.
2.) This all depends on who your ex is and how mature they are, but in my case, if you send a "hey how've you been?" text to an ex that you haven't talked to in awhile, it apparently means that you're a creeper, you're hitting on them and you should know better because they have a girlfriend, and you're trying to get back together with them. And they will freak out and tell the entire world this. Needless to say, I'm not texting him again until he grows up and stops thinking so highly of himself.
3.) One weekend can change the course of your life. That sounds really dramatic...I mean that things happen that suddenly change your future plans for the coming months/years.
4.) If you work in a school with kiddos, and if you want to stay healthy, your 2 best friends should be Airborne and hand sanitizer.
5.) Don't drink an entire cup of something at a restaurant and leave without first peeing.
6.) I am completely and sadly tactless. No tact whatsoever. And more than likely the moment I open my mouth I'll stick my foot in it.
7.) I HATE that phrase.
8.) Murphy's Law prevails, so just go into a situation with the attitude that no matter what happens, you'll enjoy the ride.
9.) Don't try to impress someone/make a good impression when they already like you and have a decent impression of who you are. Disaster. Hopefully I didn't permanently mess things up.
10.) Just when you think you escaped the stink bug problem everyone else has, they will grow exponentially in numbers over nite and terrorize your home in droves the following day. And they will never cease to gross me out. There are currently 2 alive in my room. I killed at least 10 today. If I hear a single buzz tonite, I will not sleep.
11.) When you work where I do, reading about Beauty and the Beast can turn into loud and wonderfully hilarious renditions of the song ("Tale as old as TIIIIIMMMME") which leads to ballroom dancing around the room, which leads to turning on the radio and having a dance party for our social skills group activity. And autistic kids have thee best dance moves. Ever.
12.) That new 106.7 station is kind of amazing. Songs of every genre from my childhood/adolescence on shuffle. Woot.
Things I already knew but re-learned in the past week:
1.) Life is good.
2.) I don't deserve my wonderful friends and people in my life, but I really love them.
3.) Stake conference makes all of life's suckiness seem so far away. It's like one giant "it's gonna be ok".
4.) I LOVE fall.
5.) At any age, boys will be boys.
6.) Procrastinating leads to lack of sleep and nothing good can come of that.
7.) I like Glee, just a little.
8.) Love everyone, because we are all equally unimportant and important.
i have always enjoyed stake conference too but you said it perfectly, its like one big "its going to be ok" : ) as for boys... they are stupid, and never grow up.
ReplyDelete2) all he had to do was say, "great - been dating a new girl, havin' fun - what've you been up to?" and something clever about things you're into.
ReplyDelete4) and latex gloves. You'll look really cool, and they'll feel so close to you.
5) agreed.
9) Done that - TOTAL disaster. Should have left "well-enough" alone!
10) !!!!
11) And tell me you were the coolest Silly Girl they had EVER heard!
12) Ditto on everything accept boys, kinda. I can't tell you how much awesomer a husband acts most of the time than boys.... MOST of the time. And when he acts like a boy, it makes me smile. I just love Jeff. Sorry - this is about you - back to you. =)
