Friday Random Thoughts

Woot! Two posts in one week. Heh. How about some random thoughts for your Friday viewing pleasure? I’m sure I’ve got something swimming in my little head.

-I had two near misses this morning on my way to work. I am more convinced than ever that there is an invisible, protective bubble around my car. The first one, I was making a left out of the daycare parking lot as the mini bus was turning in. I looked and didn’t see anyone behind her so I started to go – when I saw a freakin’ taxi fly out from behind her. I went to slam on my brakes – and MISSED the brake pedal. I missed the dude by inches. Then I missed another guy as I backed out of my 7-11 parking space. There was a truck next to me and I couldn’t see. Good thing I was pulling out at a snail’s pace.

-I found out recently that a former friend (and by former, I mean I haven’t spoken to her since I was 18) has her child in the same daycare that I use. We had a falling out over something totally ridiculous, so I wonder if I’ll actually say hello to her next time I see her.

-Speaking of blasts from the past, I ran into someone yesterday in 7-11 that I have not seen or spoken to in YEARS. I dated his friend when I was in 8th grade! I couldn’t believe we even recognized one another.

-My little boy Christopher has a blood blister on his lil’ itty bitty pinky toe. L How on earth does a 4 month old manage that? It’s not like he’s walking, or even wears shoes for that matter! I doubt we’ll ever figure out that mystery.

-Speaking of Christopher’s feet, how stinking cute is this picture?



-Lauren is becoming an expert on bears. She gave me a whole lecture this morning about how you can’t go near a baby bear or it’s mama will attack you, but if you leave the baby alone, the mama won’t attack you. And if you are attacked by a bear, you should play dead. Good to know she’s got that info incase she ever encounters a bear in Hicksville.

-I finished all 4 Twilight books, and was left with an empty, “Now what?” feeling. I’m not ready to let go. So I started over again with the first book. One of these days I’ll get to read Midnight Sun, but it’s kind of a pain in the ass to read 200+ pages as a PDF file. The DVD of Twilight comes out in less than a month. Can’t freakin’ wait.
