Creatures

This is a two part post which will be separated by the pictures.
First thought: I am a creature of habit. I think most people are to a degree. Its the same reason that when given the option of sitting anywhere we want in class, church or wherever; we ALWAYS pick the same seats. I extend this neurosis to my parking spot as well. Last night some Buick Lesabre with Idaho plates parked in my spot. It threw off my whole evening, and I am still a little bitter towards her....GET OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT!!!
Don't mind the toilet paper, whats important is that you can see where I park my car on the regular.

Second Thought: I live in a basement apartment and so occasionally you can find an 8 legged creature (spider) in an obscure corner of a window or storage closet. Typically I don't mind and I let it live. HOWEVER,  as soon as that spider decides to make his presence known while I am going to the bathroom or getting in/out of the shower, THAT SPIDER MUST DIE!!! I don't need some spider creeping up on my while im in various stage of undress. LIVE AND LET DIE!

Reading is FUNdamental

I really used to enjoy reading. Even as a little kid I picked up reading really fast and won school awards for being on top of it. This was all good and well, until I hit high school and college. School has absolutely ruined my love of reading, and every year I feel like it is getting worse. I have so much required reading that when I have a free moment, I would rather not have to pick up another book. There are so many books that I would love to be able to sit down and just ready, but anytime I start a book, I remember how much I hate reading now and it just ruins it for me. It probably doesn't help that I have almost no attention span thanks to some medication I take, but I really only feel like that is a contributing factor. I would love to get my love of reading back, there are so many books I want to read like: The Art of War, Men are from Mars Women are from Venus, and War and Peace (in Russian). But I know that until I feel like I can enjoy reading, which probably won't happen until after I finish school for good, I will probably continue to loathe reading a book.

Yes Man

If I am not interested in doing something or going somewhere, I usually will speak my mind...at the least I make up a very polite excuse why I won't be able to attend some event. However, I have noticed a recent trend with certain people getting me to say yes to anything. Anytime someone has called me while I am sleeping/just waking up from sleeping (naps included) I am far more likely to say YES to pretty much any request. It isn't until 5 minutes after the conversation that I even realize what I agreed to. Luckily no one has asked me to rob a bank or smoke crack after a Sunday nap. To those who have taken advantage of this: shame on you, especially for waking me up from my slumber!!
