Yes, "you should," right, Cookie? If only you weren't afraid of interacting with people on the phone, and you weren't so socially awkward, and your intestines didn't betray you in moments of stress, and probably if you could make left turns in traffic without having mini panic attacks? There are a lot of things you SHOULD be able to undertake and complete...
SHUT UP! YOU'RE A COOKIE! I'M AWESOME!
Stupid cookie!
My mother is a former drag racer and dirt biker and is seriously the BEST most bad-ass driver I know. She will go out of her way to avoid making left turns in traffic, because and I quote, "I've seen what s*** can happen." Also she is a semi-professional cake baker and we laugh together over cake wrecks, which is how I found your lovely blog!
ReplyDeleteYou tell that cookie, JRose.
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with being afraid of interacting with people on the phone, and being socially awkward? I mean, my intestines are mostly okay, and I turn left like a madman, but the other things are pretty normal. Especially if you have a blog, from what I'm learning. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm a little creeped out that nearly everything you said to that cookie hits a nerve with me (minus the left turn thing). It's nice to know that I'm not alone in my "stuff" that others find weird. The realization that you're not alone is huge. Thanks for sharing. Oh, and screw that cookie.
ReplyDeleteI think you just described me to a T.
ReplyDeleteomg, there are others...... we should form a secret society of poop -in -the- pants stricken left turners, who instead, turn right and take the long way while contemplating that call to customer service we have to make in order to avoid the power being shut off because we forgot to pay the bill.... again....
ReplyDeleteI stress so much that I end up sick for a day afterwards if I'm lucky. If I'm not lucky then I am late to/miss what I was going to be doing because I am stuck in the bathroom. I also only like left turns on lights and now that I'm having a baby my driving has gotten more careful with no unnecessary turns, I will go out of my way to make sure everything I am doing has stoplights.
