Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

[stormchaser2014]

My sister said that her fiancé's cousin wouldn't be a good match because she said she's high strung and I'm too laid back. Opposites attract right? No harm in trying it out.

So, my sister's fiancé's grandpa passed away suddenly a couple weeks ago, the visitation/funeral was last Saturday. Well his cousin was standing with the family by the casket for the visitation, we kinda smiled at each other, but I didn't introduce myself, and I moved on in line.

I sent her a friend request on Facebook the other day, to my surprise she accepted it, thought she wouldn't because we don't really know each other.

So today, we stopped for a couple after work. When we left I drove by a couple houses we built just to see how they turned out since they were on that end of town. Then I really had to use the bathroom, so I stopped at a kwik trip.

As I was walking in, I saw this redhead out of the corner of my eye walk in the other door. I turned back to look and it was her. Didn't think she'd recognize me in my work clothes, but she did. We said hi and I formally introduced myself this time.

This has got to be a sign right? The Lord does work in mysterious ways.

The grandpas cousin? You hitting on the 80 year olds?

Very funny. I knew someone would say something.

New pet peeve people who listen to a podcast in public spaces (hotel breakfast area.) With no ear buds so we all get to hear. Sigh.

In airports & planes, too.
In fact, any use of electronic devices (phone, podcast, music, games) without muting or using ear buds in shared public spaces is rude, IMO. I sat on a plane a while back with a woman across the aisle playing some game with flashy blinkies, and tinkling and boingggg noises. It was a red eye flight. She was totally oblivious to the fact that the noise would annoy people. The flashing lights I could deal with...I always carry an eyemask on overnight flights. But the high-pitched noises...oy!

Why do people need the sound on to play any game? When I play a game on my phone I always have the sound muted. I couldn't imagine having the sound up where anyone could be bothered by my mindless waste of precious time.

I wonder who was the first person that decided to put on a wing suit and jump off a mountain.

Lol, I'd call it 1. The one I went to high school with. We've hung out a few times.

Had some friends give us a couple dozen farm eggs on Saturday. Went to make an omlette this morning and first couple I had cracked open had growing embroys in them! took me six eggs to get three eggs that weren't fertilized.

My wife would never eat an egg again.

Sounds like someone doesn't collect eggs on a daily basis...

Leisure suit Larry isn’t the same without the squeaky bed.

A prime example of a game you shouldn't be playing in public for these and other reasons...

Two GA, 2 reserved sec112, row 12, seats 1-2. Pretty close to net being your line of sight.

If you were going to grab a meal from a quick food place for you and your spouse, do you know what they typically order. I could probably correctly get my wife’s meal 75% of the time.

This came up because my wife flew through Panda Express. She obviously didn’t know my typical order from there. I think maybe subway she would be good.
