Ten on Tuesday

Ten Things You're Really Good At.

1. Laundry.  "I am the laundry queen!  Not so sweet, way past seventeen!"  Ba dum, ba dum, ba dum.
2. Daydreaming.
3. Remembering advertising jingles.
4. I have an unbelievable knack for finding the one seat next to a person that will annoy the hell out of me.  Every.Single.Time.  In the movies, at a play, or (and this isn't sitting) in line at the store.  The talkers, the crinklers, the loud chewers.  There I'll be.  Remember, don't sit next to me or you will be sitting next to the annoying ones too.
5. Procrastinating.  I'm really, really good at this.
6. Cleaning.  I'm so thorough that I just never get started, because I obsess and it takes too long.  So the place is always a mess.
7. Ignoring the mess.
8. Sarcasm.  I try to hold it in most of the time, but you can be sure I'm thinking it.
9. Getting songs stuck in my head and sharing them with my family for days.  They really love that best about me. (see?  Sarcasm.  You never know if what you read here is my real feeling or sarcasm.)
10. I asked Erin, "What is something I'm really good at that drives you crazy?"  Her response:  "Ummm......  Simply driving me crazy."  Heh.  She is a laugh riot a minute, I can't imagine where she gets it.

Two hundred thirty-three to go.  After almost seven months, I'm still really good at forgetting to post to this blog until the last second of every day.  Will that ever change, or is it the habit I developed in 21 days?

We could be twins separated at birth on #4. Honestly. I go in to NY for a concert and get a bag lady behind me rattling plastic bags. I go to a Ray Charles concert and get amorous gay people right in front, feeling each other up through the whole concert and have to explain to my two young sons. I go to a mandatory real estate continuing ed class and have two gabbers behind me and a key jingler on the other side of me. Movies? The person next to me brings carrots as a snack. Sheesh. They don't even know how to SIT STILL and BE QUIET in the damn opera any more, and don't get me started on people on airplanes!

[maryse]

regarding #4. is it possible that you are just really good at being easily annoyed? ;)

Love the list. #9 - the remedy for getting any song out of your head is to simply start singing "Hey Mickey You're So Fine. You're So Fine. You Blow My Mind. Hey Mickey." (Sorry - no known remedy for removing THAT song from your head). #10. I tell my boys "I'm your Mom. It's my job to embarass you. How am I doing?"

Thanks for the laughs.
