I have been having some problems sleeping last night. A mature way to handle this situation would be to do some stretches, take a warm bath, and then meditate. Instead I chose to think about everything in life that bothers me. Including the annoying things I do and or say. The first is when some explains how they have turned their life around by saying they have done a complete 360. I am horrible at math but wouldn’t you be back to where you started? In reality you haven’t done a damn thing. Basically you are telling someone you have worked really hard to not get anywhere. I think i’ll start telling people I have done a 45, changed enough but not so much that I had to work really hard.
Growing up I used to love to buy things with the Guess logo, fortunately my mom didn’t buy us a lot of crap like that. You were seriously “in” when you wore shirts and sweatshirts with a logo on them from an “in” brand. It never occurred to me how ridiculous this is until my friends father pointed out that I was paying to advertise for the company. Now wearing American Eagle, Hollister, and Abercrombie is the complete obsession for teenagers. I can remember begging for a pair of $40 jeans and that is a drop in the bucket now. The big difference now? Girls are paying to advertise for these companies by wearing the logos on their booties. Seriously? I am going to give you money so I can wear your name on my ass?
Annoying thing number three, how I start sentencing out by saying “I’m not going to lie…” I can’t stop myself from doing this. Here is an example, “I’m not going to lie, that is the funniest movie ever”. Why in the hell would I lie about that. Annoying.
You would think that this type of thinking would keep me up at night…nope. I feel asleep rather quickly, well after I made my list.
For all intensive purposes, it’s a doggie dog world.
