It's Random

Random Thoughts...

Haven't done a random thoughts post lately... and well, I have some random things going through my mind. So, here we go.

1. Anything is a go at Wal Mart. "Really?" You say? Well, let me explain. Some places you go, there are things that are socially unacceptable. A mullet at the Kentucky Derby, Patriots jersey at Lucas Oil Stadium, rock music at a coffee shop, baby in a bar... just to name a few. However, at Wal Mart, anything goes. Children on leashes, mullets...

I recently had an unfortunately experience at Wal Mart... 45 year old dad, one of my former student's parents... asking me on a date. This is socially unacceptable... even for Wal Mart. Why do people think that is ok?

2. Trail Mix... my new love.

3. Trust, my new thing.

4. My sister is gettin' hitched in 18 days! I think she should ditch the dress she bought and wear this! It is 100% Charmin Toilet Paper. Craaaazy!

5. Free Tip

Do not put your cell phone in your back jeans pocket... no matter if you don't want to carry your purse, just running to the mailbox for a minute... no, don't do it. Why you ask? Well, take it from someone who really knows... you might forget it is in your back pocket. Your back pocket might be a little too tight or shallow... Only bad things can happen... Yes, take it from someone who knows all too well...

This has happened twice in the last 4 months... TWICE!!! What is wrong with me??? I can tell you this, I do not put my phone in my back pocket anymore. One time, it's a fluke. But twice? No... no more.

5. Perfume Scented Dryer Sheets - Isn't this a brilliant idea? No more spritzing body spray before you walk out the door? You put your favorite shirt on right out of the dryer and, VOILA! You smell like your favorite scent! Why has someone not thought of this??? This is perfect for the single person. Families, yes, I get that you don't want your 6 year old smelling like Ralph Lauren's Romance... but me? I'd love it! Clinique Happy dryer sheet? Hellooo?? Am I the only one that thinks this is a good idea?

6. Silly Bandz, have you scene them? Really, how could you not? They are the latest fad. And I am left asking, how? They are rubber bands in shapes. Let me say that again. Rubber bands in shapes. Some of my students wear hundreds of them at a time. Kids trade them, and if you are lucky, you might be given one as a gift. Last week one of my students gave me a dolphin, then I got a girl and a seal. Each one to go with my day's outfit. Yes, if they don't get math, at least they get fashion.

Speaking of fads, remember when pogs were cool? I remember I wanted to collect them. But by the time I got a few, the fad was over...

9. Glee... it's the closest thing to my life as I could imagine. I watched a few episodes on hulu the other day. And I have a confession... I want my life to be a musical. Whenever you feel like breaking into a song, others would be there to be your back up. Or if you wanted to dance around the sales rack, the lady next to you would be there to dosi-do with you! The show Glee is exactly that. Oh, for me, Heaven... might be a living musical! :)

Check this out... I sooo want this to be my life... (pause the music at the bottom of the page to get the full effect! :) ) "That's the most singin-est janitor I've ever seen!"
