Roll off roooooll off

Do you ever look at something and say "seriously??? why?!". Obviously I do. Or I wouldn't have asked that. First edition of "Things that make you go whaaaaa??"

1. First of all, there are many things about KFC that make me ask the world SERIOUSLY?? Because of this, it has many subtypes:
    
     a. Their commercials. I'm sorry but, we all already know how much our arteries hate you so do you really think it's such a bright idea to give us blow up images of your nasty food? I can see the grease and fat dripping from the images. It makes me want to vomit. Alot. Atherosclerosis heeeere I come. I would like to make a request, can this please be the new "super-size me" experimental video? Takers? No of course there are no takers. At least McDonalds is smart enough to have a playplace and clown to attract visitors. (which....clowns are freaky I don't get why kids like them)
     b. They have a "Keep Fit Challenge". This is my response: ".........."
     c. They have what is called the "Double Down", which if you do not know what this is it is basically bacon and cheese between to pieces of boneless fried chicken. "so meaty there's no room for the bun". Okay eww gross. Literally thinking about it makes me cringe.

2. OldNavy now sells zip-up jackets loaded with their own headphones. Are you for real. Clever yes. But I have to admit, if I see someone walking down the road with their jacket on and the buds in their ears all I'm going to think is why does that weirdo have the strings to his hood in his ears? Could he not find another place for them? Does it make him uncomfortable to just have them awkwardly hang there like they are supposed to? And if this is the case why doesn't he just tuck them into the jacket or pull the string out? Yes I would think all of those things. Probably in that same order. Plus if buying one of these makes someone think hey now I have earphones, what if they just dont wanna wear the jacket that day then what. I say just buy the person a pair of earphones and tell them to stick the ipod in their pocket; if they are really self conscious about having the earphone wire visible just tell them to tuck it into their jacket and no one will notice.

3. While I do LOVE Chicfila and it basically is the only "fastfood" I like, I just don't get why workers are made to say my pleasure. Sometimes I just want to ask for or say something really off the wall just to see if they will still say my pleasure at the end. Judging by some of their faces after the customer pleasing response of my pleasure, clearly it is not some of their workers' pleasure. I'm just saying. If I were to say "thank you for being a rude and horrible cashier" would they return with my pleasure. Because, I feel like if they did that would be kind of rude. Not part of the plan I suppose. I would just like them to say your welcome. But I will say again, I do I do I dooo-oooo love Chicfila.

4. Guys. I don't understand. I feel as though they feel the same about us. In fact I know they do. You men think you are so simple. Lies. All lies. You are just as complicated. Contrary to your belief we do in fact love to hear what you have to say and would love it if you offered it up voluntarily instead of making us drag it out of you. It, believe it or not, would make our lives oh so much easier. Expressing your feelings does not make you a pansy, I promise. Not doing so doesn't either, it just makes you irritating. Rant over. Please remember I did say just as, we are complicating too :).

5. Bridalplasty. It's a new show on E! about women competing for their dream wedding.......and a good bit of plastic surgery...hence the name Bridalplasty. Some of these women I can understand their reasoning, but most of these women...are you kidding me? Next Heidi Montags right there. In training. One women is a previous contestant of the Biggest Loser. I remember her season and her proposal on TV BECAUSE it wasn't very long ago. Are you seriously going to go from Biggest Loser to Bridalplasty. I do not get it. I do not think Bob nor and especially Jillian would be proud. Come on. Aside from all of that these women are completely catty, it's actually kind of sad. The one woman I would have wanted to give the dream wedding too is already gone, and she is the one woman I'd say that is genuine. Plug-I do love me some Biggest Loser!!!

I do have more. For a later date these will come. Merry Christmas :)!!!

It's Abouuut Time...

Nursing school has kept me from entertaining myself and writing this blog. How dare it. All I can say is, thank GOODNESS this semester from Hell (and yes I literally mean Hell) is finally over. I didn't think it would ever end, but I am at the light at the end of the tunnel so it must be. I feel like I'm dreaming, considering I've had a schedule full of absolutely NOTHING the past few days...well actually I did get a haircut one day..and that took up some time...a whole hour, if that. Impressive right? Pretty jammed packed. While it's definitely nice to be completely unproductive and have nothing to do or study for, I must admit I feel quite useless. I'm bored. I think I forgot how to chill out. All I can think about while sitting here is that I should be doing or studying for something.
Regretfully I must also admit I've already looked at the syllabus for all my classes next semester, yes I know that I am a dork. With a capital 'D'.
I know my parents enjoy me home, the dishes are washed, the trash is taken out, the laundry is done, the dogs are good to go, the house is clean, ah yes they are probably really enjoying me home. Lucky for them they don't have a child who can just sit and do nothing all day.
So now that the semester is over, and for some reason Global Warming (I know what it means I just choose to only pay attention to the warming part of the phrase) is deciding to be USELESS, it must be time for the happiest time of the year.......opening a present from a relative who thought what you might really enjoy for Christmas would be a hand knit sweater fit with jingle bells and all. Question. If it's already Christmas, why give me something Christmas related?? THEN the only time I can use it (whatever that may be) or look at it will be a whole year from now. Of course that next year the same person will give me yet again something else Christmas related....soooo basically it's a never ending cycle. I'm not talking ornaments here people, I do love me a nice ornament. I'm talking Christmas clothes...really? I don't want a sweater with a giant Christmas Tree on it. Nor do I want socks fit with bells. If you really feel inclined though to give me these things please include a light up necklace and a pair of antlers so I can wear it all to the next tacky Christmas party. I'd be the cooliiiiest one there. Holla!!
Despite how horrendous and nerve racking of a semester that it was, without it I would not have met some of the coolest people ever. Cath buddy and friends you people know who you are :), thank you for making my semester great despite!!
