A little peak inside my brain on a Friday afternoon…
 
I have the munchies.  Except they are more than the munchies; more the like the “eat everything in sight-ies”.  Would love an iced coffee too.  Why must they have so many calories?  How come I go to the gym and do aerobics for hours and only burn 400 calories–i drank more calories than that in my delicious coffee creamer.  shootskies!  Will I always picture leotards, tights and crimped hair when I type the word “aerobics”? ( I went looking for a picture of myself doing aerobics in Thailand–and came across this one of me and Ronald.  Figured you might like that more than me doing aerobics with a bunch of little Thai ladies. ) I love aerobics.  And I am pretty sure my other classmates love it that I love aerobics, because I am not exactly coordinated, so it is more like flailing about at rapid speeds.  And surely they are entertained by my very passionate flailing about.  I have been told I am a passionate person.  I either REALLY like something, or REALLY dislike something.  I thought this was normal to have a such a broad spectrum of emotion about certain things.  Like chicken salad and cheetos, I have very passionate about that being the best possible summertime lunch option.  Or scary movies, I am very passionate about those being the worst possible type of movie.   This is normal, right?
 
Where do you suppose one puts a paragraph break in a stream of consciousness blog post?  Does my brain think in paragraph form?  But I do want it to be easier to read…hmmm.  I have been reading a lot on how to be a better blogger.  So far, it doesn’t appear to be working.  I have come to the conclusion I don’t have anything to write about, except I do.  But I can’t imagine that anyone really wants to read it, so why blog about it?  Does anyone really read this stuff anyways?  I would like to be an expert on something, then i would write very informative posts on my subject.  So far the only thing I would consider my self an expert at is picking out good chicken salad.  Hands down the best store-bought is at Kroger.  Don’t even think about going to Wal-mart!  And if you are ordering at a restaurant, you might as well go straight to the Cheesecake Factory.  Holy cow, it is amazing.  And of course there is the cheesecake that you must order.  yep, that settles it.  I could write an entire blog about chicken salad and become a connossr.  If anyone out there works at Kroger:  do you think you could add more almonds and less celery please?  Then it would be perfect!
 
Someone I know and respect a whole lot found out yesterday he has Leukemia.  Would you pray for Rob?  He is a hero in my book for his unfailing commitment to his local church and his family.  I hate cancer.  a lot!  It can go right back to hell where it belongs. 
 
I have been in KY and OH this week and it has been great!  Ready to see my MI roomies though!  They have such a soft place in my heart and I love laying in bed and listening to their giggles in the evenings and the way they let me mooch off their dinner plates every night.  I just love em!  Well, off to find some chicken salad…
