The Basics

Hey everyone!  I decided to add this page to give any new readers the quick summary of some of the things I talk about on a regular basis.  This saves you from having to read an entire year’s worth of posts.  You’re welcome. 

- I dislike Tuesdays.  I feel they are the day of suck of the work week.  Most feel this way about Mondays- but at least Monday you have the excitement of the week to talk about, it goes by semi-fast because you’re playing catchup at work, it’s a fresh new start to the week, etc.  Whereas Tuesday you’re still stuck in the beginning of the week.  You’re done playing catchup.  You’re done discussing the weekend.  Tuesday really has nothing going for it.

- I also dislike the majority of fruit or fruit-flavored things.  Don’t know why.  This was seriously debilitating as a college girl being offered free shots.  I used to eat it as a kid (but I think it may be because I was forced).  After much consideration, I think it’s the texture that gets me.  I just don’t like it.  The smell is also a factor- the smell of bananas and peaches make me want to gag.  It’s odd.  But I will eat the more nontraditional fruits (most likely you think they’re veggies, but they’re not) – avocado being the main one I can think of.

- The two friends I will probably talk about most often because I am lucky enough to get to hang out with them on a regular basis are A and M.  A has been one of my best friends since freshman year of college and lives not that far away from me now.  She’s a sweet heart and a half! And M is my good friend I met while living in the ‘burbs.  She’s a spunky red head with attitude. 

- A few things I consistently will obsess about:  running, peanut butter, Vince Vaughn, caffeine, wine, cereal, movies, the City of Chicago.  Am I missing anything? 

So, if you’re new, that should get you started!  If you’ve been reading for a while, maybe this will better explain why I’m a little crazy.  Because, let’s face it, I am.
