- Do you ever lie awake at night thinking of what you are going to write on your blog the next day? The "Wishful Thinking" part of my brain hopes that I am becoming a better writer by thinking my blog posts out for long periods of time. The "Reality" side just thinks I am sick!
- I hate parking. I really do. I am always afraid that I am going to hit the car next to me and it just stresses me out. Thus, I am a BFE parker. (I still don't really know what BFE is??). I choose parking spots at the back of the parking lot and walk. It really isn't that much farther and it is so much easier to get the babies out of the car if you don't have to worry about dinging the car next to you. Anyway, the point of my story, in Idaho, people don't seem to understand that I am parking out in the back, all alone, ON PURPOSE! They must think I am lonely or something, because invariably, when I come out of the store, there is at least one car parked RIGHT NEXT TO ME!!! Not a space away, in the space right next to me. Bothersome.
- Speaking of bothersome, does it bother anyone else that blogs read backwards? For example, while I am doing my blog surfing, I will at times fall in love with a blog. One that just clicks with me. They have the same values, morals, ideas, styles-- a perfect match. In order to get myself caught up on the blog, making sure I didn't miss any of their wonderous ideas, I get myself all confused timewise because I am reading backwards! It is like starting a book on the last page, in the bottom corner and going towards the front. Huh. You would think they--the computer genius out there in cyber space would have come up with a little better system.
-Another parking story. Every apartment we have lived in for the last nine years, Brandon and I have both found perfect little parking spots in the complex. They are always away from the crowd in a spot that no one else ever parks and that has plenty of room so that we don't get parking claustrophobia. These spots become "ours" in a sense, and we ALWAYS park there. After several weeks or months, randomly, someone will start stealing our spot. Maybe they have just moved in and don't know the "rules" yet, or maybe they just are not very observant, but I tend to think that they are just out to get the Payzants.
"Phase I of my evil plot is now complete! I shall next "walk the dog" across their walkway a few more times and the Payzant family will be driven to complete and total insanity!!! Mwa- hahahaha!!! (evil laugh)"
It has already begun here. . . how many more months in an apartment?!?!?
Thanks for listening to my random thoughts.

I am the same way with parking! It irritates the boys so bad :) They always ask why we park so far away. I just tell them it's because they need the exercise. LOL
Oh, I hate the whole parking thing too. What are people thinking taking your spot at your apartment complex. Maybe you should put up a sign that says RESERVED :) So how's the whole house hunting thing going? Hope to see you soon. Ryan might have to come up there for work this month...would you want me to come with and hang out??? Let me know.
I don't lay awake at night thinking of things to write on the blog, but I do think about it during the day and when something funny happens I think "I should take a pic and write about it on my blog." I like your train of thoughts!
We have our own bad thoughts about our apartment complex too. Except we can't really blame the people. I should take a picture of the size of our parking spaces for you to see... it is ridiculous. They barely fit 4 small cars together and vans and massive trucks park in them (There is no open door space). We are ALWAYS paranoid that the kids are going to throw the door open into the BMW next to us, or some mustang with HUGE doors will slam into the side of us.
I remember at Ricks that Brandon used to park in the back of the parking lot at Somerset Apartments(: He was always so careful... remembering that just made me laugh... thanks!
