Some Thoughts

Some of you are just dying to get into my head! So let me share with you some thoughts I've had as of late.

* Shaving when you aren't kissing someone and the weather does not permit shorts is basically pointless
* My hair is still short
* I like things clean, very clean.  Living alone is the best way to achieve this.
* Having parents on the other side of the world presents a difficult moment when contemplating presents {did you catch what I did there?}
* My Pandora Radio rotates between Neil, James, and Tim ~ at least I'm predictable
* I heard Straight No Chaser in Target the other day ... friends having success!! YAHOO!! Hot friends having success!! DOUBLE YAHOO!!
* Bleu and I have been together for five years, she is mine. I have no plans on ending the relationship, she's steady, looks just fine, and paid for. I'd appreciate it if my siblings would stop bruising her bumper though.
* I am not Meredith Grey apparently.  I have parents that love one another, have never been abandoned, and I have absolutely no skills with a scalpel.
* When friends need to avoid the dark and twisty place I turn on Fringe {Pacey all grown up}. The problem with this is  I can't turn it off.  I get all involved in the life or non-life of Peter and the lies and crazy of Walter and another 41.5 minutes doesn't seem like too long but then I need another and before I know its 3 in the morning and I have a call to be on at 730.  At least I'm bright and shiny in my footie pajamas while indulging this desire ... yes, one that started as a distraction for friends is now my very own
*  I work at the House on the Hill on Wednesday nights.  I live for Wednesday nights, truly.
* Having my music interrupted by the voice of John makes me smile {esurance}
* Last night I had a dream that I was living with Adam in the new house and we were to dinner with a group of friends and John and Emily were at the next table over.  I got up to use the ladies room and Emily was getting up at the same time.  We became fast friends and upon our return to the main dining room Adam and John were talking.  We took a picture, exchanged numbers and then I woke up.  The thought of this dream will make me happy for weeks.
* I can do hard things and as it would turn out, they aren't really that difficult
* Midway is beautiful
* I'm not one to have her nails painted.  Toes, sure.  But my fingernails are just not something I pay attention to.  
* I would like to have my dog with me at all times.
* I was raised with a Papa who drove and a Grandpa who drove, I think this is why I judge couples in a not-so-kind-way when the woman is driving
* The family that was sitting in front of us in the Conf Center when the changes in the missionary age was announced was so entertaining ... Mom was crying, sons were texting Bishops for interviews, and the daughter {clearly a Daddy's girl} who had likely never spoken of a mission leaned over to Daddy to announce she was going in a year, Mom cried more
* The cream-puff-cake is a HIT {it's an actual cake folks}
* I am not a concert attender, my ears are far too sensitive
* I have to think before I leave for my Sunday Worship now as the suit coat I normally have is no longer accessible
* Away We Go still warms my heart
* I drive the Rover better than everyone
* Cowboy and Girlfriend still have me wrapped around their finger
* I will never name a child a U name, nope, never
* I will fall in love with any man for at least 3 min if he is wearing a grey cable knit sweater
* I need a bit more tact
* Could you see me working on an Egg Farm? Funny thing, I could.
* I call myself Kate when I speak to myself {which is often}. Thank you Gams.
* My kidney is FULLY functioning ... FULLY FUNCTIONING!
* The mere thought of my rock, at my Lake, with my Grandparents and Buba makes my heart warm.
* EQPs and I are not a good combination
* I have very few pants that fit.  Not because of a weight loss or gain but rather a non-butt that refuses to work in anything!
* If I had more patience for school I would go and get my MSW, then get my LCSW so that I could tell people how to fix their lives and they would listen.  Until that patience comes, I'll tell them and they won't listen.
* The pictures in my office are three years old, that is sad. One would think I'd just get new pictures.  Nope, I'm going to get a new office.
* I need to see Zuri
* The people I Gchat with are the people that I love the most
* I cannot make it to Canal Drive on Wednesday mornings in less than two trips back up to the house, today my neighbor witnessed and giggled at me
* I sing Guys and Dolls in the shower when I'm happy
* I sing Billy Joel when I'm contemplative
* Sister Lewis {my 82 year old trainer at the House on the Hill} is my hero
* Conversations with the Grandparents on speaker phone can help life make a bit more sense
* I'm a scarf girl
* Turns out, I really like my brother in law
* I would love him a lot more if he would father a child with my sister
* I love to cook
* Sundays are a bit scary right now
* Bunk usually knows best, I should listen and remember that more often
* My parents are Spiritual Rockstars ... fact
* I'm not nearly as dramatic as others
* I'm far more dramatic than some
* I type faster when I'm furious
* Can someone explain to me why people love their brakes in the canyons?
* Rach is leaving the Choco
* I'm still thrilled about Pete and Wendy being married, if only for the simple fact that it was there I met Janny and Rach ~ who I really can't imagine not having now.
* Uncle is the best, even far away
* I like to stand on furniture
* Candles are always lit in my house right now
* I haven't had AC or heat on in my house for almost two weeks ~ GREEN!
* People that bring me movies and food are my kind of people
* When I am sick I tend to get sad because I can't do anything, the best way to avoid this is to not get sick and the best way to do that? My kidney and I are sorting through that.
* I believe in adventure
* Walking in a coat, gloves, and scarf with the sun on my face is truly a slice of heaven
* My people are so incredibly talented, in so many different areas, but I think they excel in the area of Kasi
* The ocean sounds really good to me right now
