Random Thoughts Part XIV

1. I have never played in the snow. Granted there might have been a time where I threw a snowball for a minute or such, but that is about it. These white people are always frolicking in the snow and act as if its the greatest thing that has ever happened. I really do not understand all the excitement. Maybe one day I will learn to understand this phenomenon.

2. I saw the most amazing thing the other day. A CRAYON MAKER. You take old crayons and melt them and you can forge new crayons with each other. They are a swirl of amazingness. I almost went to the store and got one right there. I had such a deprived childhood. Where were these amazing things back then!

3. I have a fixation on leaves. I will go out of my way to go step on leaves and hear that ever so pleasant "CRUNCH CRUNCH." You know what I hate though. When you see the most delectable batch of leaves and scurry over to give it a nice stomp....NOTHING. The damn things were soggy and NON-crunchy. What a devastating experience.

4. For those that know me, I am very touchy with the volume in my car. The volume MUST be on increments of 5. I have driving with new people or elders because they turn that dial like its their job. They do not realize that it literally drives me insane. I have pretended to get a call before, so I could lower the volume, "take" the call, then put the volume back at an acceptable number. If you do not know his yet, please mark it down from now on.

5. What the hell is the point of a sheet? We have the elastic sheet cover, the covers, but then that damn sheet in between. There is not purpose to that thing. All it does is get untucked and cause much frustration for myself. I need to figure out a problem to this dilemma.

6. I hate having to tell my Mom that I have something wrong with me. She always has a reason or excuse as to why it happened. If I have a headache, it is because I was talking on the phone outside. If my back hurts, it is because I had that can of soda. If I am throwing up, it is because I was out too late. WHAT DO ANY OF THESE THINGS HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING. Indians Moms love to do this though. They like to make connections where connections to not exist to prove their point. My Mom has a chance to nag me about things she does not like by attributing them to my ailments. Ugh...

7. This 7th post, is somewhat of a different Random Thought. It is an apology. I have recently discovered the brilliance of a Snuggie. At first it was just because my Mom bought me one. I was very disturbed and upset. I hated those things, but then I tried it on and realized how judgemental I was. It is the most amazing contraption ever created. All they need to do is add some pockets and make it easier to walk around.

  1. 1. It's simple - we are white, the snow is white. It makes us feel at home :D :D

    4. True dat.

    5. The sheet serves very important purposes. It is basically "blanket lite", and designed to help facilitate a barrier between you and the covers. If you get too hot, remove a blanket or blankets/ the sheet will cool you down but keep you at requisite warmth. Also, the sheet keeps your nasty body from ruining good blankets...we don't want that. See? very useful

    6. Your frustration is being caused by your new stigmata, and you had lunch yesterday. Fix these :D

    7. IT'S A REVERSE ROBE. THAT's ALL.

  4. 1. Snow is amazing. You'll have to try it some time. Snowballs, random snow forts in obscure places.. idk maybe its a white person thing.

    4. I am so gonna fuck with your volume when you come down. I think 23 sounds like a good volume.

    5. Get rid of the sheet. Mine sits in my closet somewhere. I've never been happier. I suggest you do the same.

    6. lmao

  5. 1. I can't believe you never liked snow even for one moment. As everyone said, snow is amazing (okay, maybe not always). Guys, snow is NOT a white person thing (I find find this comment amusing), believe me.
    6. that was funny. Not all Indian moms are like that.
    hbraunel, what is wrong with going to the beach in a sari? Nothing personal, but you can't expect everyone to wear a swimsuit on the beach. A person should wear whatever she/he feels most comfortable in, may it be a sari or a bikini. Peace.
