Things I NEVER do

Today I thought I'd write a post about things that I absolutely never do. They are frivilous stupid things that other people are free to do without complaint from me, but I never do them myself - ever.

Paint my Nails - I used to do this when I was younger. I'd wear my massive silver rings and wear silver sparkle nail polish with them, but I got disappointed with it. The polish never looked nice for longer than a day and a half and I can't stand for my manicure not to be 100% perfect, so I'd have to remove it. It just felt like there was no point. I also never ever paint my toe nails - EVER.

Wear Flip Flops - I remember being a very small child and owning a pair, but I only remember wearing them once. I honestly think that I was around three or four years old. As I got older I didn't like putting things between my toes, so I never wore them even though everybody and their dog owns ten pairs. Last summer my sister brought me a pair and I tried them because I thought I was being unliberated and inflexible. Yeah, I don't trip in ten centimeter heels, but I trip when I wear flip flops. Someone want to explain that to me?

Watch Reality T.V. - When I'm sick - like now - there is a huge temptation just to turn on the T.V. - watch whatever is on and space out. But I had our T.V. disconnected about a year and a half ago. No cable. No satalite. No peasant vision - nanimo. I actually don't have such a problem with scripted shows, but there was so much reality T.V. and there was me with the urge to space out. Now that I'm sick again and have been tormented by the urge to hook up the T.V. again and just get the basic three channels. But I can get through it if I think about some of the reality T.V. I got sucked into watching and I become mellow immediately - it's awesome.

Mall Crawl - People in my situation in life go to the mall to hang out a lot. When I go (because of business) and I see these people over and over again, just walking around and looking at stuff without any shopping bags with them - my eyebrows droop pathetically. I know why they do it, but my heart and brain still recoil. I hate window shopping.

Feel Bad about Taking the Bus - I have a car, but occasionally, I still need to take public transportation for various reasons. I love versatility and independant mobility so I never get on a bus and allow myself to feel bummed - even when it's cold on an unearthly level and there are children around me crying that high pitched death call that makes you think of the afterlife. Never!

Hope you enjoyed my rant!

  • Hiya!
    I also don't ever paint my nails! Ali tried to get me into it, but i always felt it was a waste of time, especially as you said in your post it wears down by the next day. I've landed my man, I'm now a sahm, why do i need to get *that* glammed up??

    Toes on the other hand, I do. That's only because I *do* wear flip flops in the summer. However, I only paint my toes in the summer. Here it's only like maybe 4 months of the year, so I guess you could say I paint my toes only 4 months of the year, which really isn't that much.

    I *must* be a cruel person. I love to watch *certain* reality tv shows just to watch people make fools of themselves. Do they not realize that once they are done the "surreal tv life" they have to go back to their REAL lives and reap the consequences of what they said and did on tv?? Most of the time I just sit and wonder "are their *parents* watching them do this?? I wonder how proud they are?"
    But I also LOVE drama. What better drama can you get than on reality tv?? LOL I'm easy. You can entertain me for real cheap!

    As for taking the bus, those must be my kids you hear-The high pitched death call that makes you think of the afterlife- that is C all the way! LOL!! Her new nickname is CeCe the Banshee!! LOL

    Good to see you posting again. I read ch. 7 in WEYW. LOVED IT!! My fave line was "Oh! Goody!" LOL

  • Hahaha! I'm glad you liked it. I'm still fried though. Maybe one day I'll be back on my feet.

  • 1. The secret is topcoat!
    2. I love flip flops :( And also high strappy sandals.
    3. I think avoid reality tv because I hate bickering of all kinds, and that's the thing that most people watch it for.
