Flying

For some reason, when I fly I always get ginger ale. I almost never get it anywhere else.

I also can't help but fall asleep on the plane. Even when I want to stay awake I can't help it, which is weird, because I'm usually not really comfortable.

Hot Hot Hot

Have you ever been in the shower and noticed a sudden change in water pressure?

That is a scary moment, because you know that the water is about to come out either really hot, or really cold.

Not much you can do either. You could turn the water off really quick, or go to the back and just burn your feet.

Food Aromas

When I walk by a bakery or a barbecue or any place where cooking is going on I always think it smells good. Most people do right?

"Mmm, smells like someone is barbecuing, it smells so good."

But then you go to the barbecue and you end up smelling like the barbecue. For some reason when the aroma transfers from the steak to your clothes it no longer smells good.

"Wow, you smell like you just got back from a barbecue," is not a compliment. It means you should put on some different clothes, "'cause you stank."

The same goes for restaurants. You walk in and, "Oo, smells good." Then you when you leave you have to apologize to everyone, "Sorry I smell, I just got back from [insert restaurant here]."

Why is that?

Circles

You know how whenever you are somewhere were there are a lot of people (like a party, or ward prayer) everyone tends to get into little circles to talk? Well, sometimes you get into one of those conversations and you realize that you would rather leave your circle and join another one, but you can't really do it without being obvious.

I mean, it's not like you're on the phone and can just say that you have to go do something like...they are going to see you walk over to the other circle and start talking.

You can try the fake cough, turn your head and walk away...
You can try to pretend like you have to ask someone in the other circle something...
You can start talking about how you recently started buying the generic brand of baked beans and when you take off the label you can't tell the difference. That might drive everyone else out of the circle.

But really, maybe the best thing to do is to have a determined look in your eyes and say "excuse me." Ain't nothing nobody's gonna do about that.

ESPN

ESPN is the only channel that was so good they had to make another one just like it: ESPN2

Clothes

Today I bought some new clothes. This is always an interesting experience. I hate shopping for clothes, yet I like getting new clothes...catch-22.

Probably what I dislike most is trying on clothes. It's funny though, because for some reason I always imagine that once I put the clothes on I will look just like the people in the pictures all over the store, having fun, looking good, probably with wet hair for some reason...but when I try them on, it's just me again, with new clothes.

Cereal

For most of the things I get at the grocery store I just pick the cheapest brand, unless it looks gross, but for cereal it is a much harder decision.

Am I feeling healthy or do I give in to the sweet tooth?
How much does it cost?
How big is the box?
Are there any prizes inside?
Is there a maze on the back?
These are all things I have to consider before making my decision.

Today I couldn't really decide so I got the Reeses cereal and Blueberry Morning. Between the two they fit all the criteria minus the prize inside.
