Random Thoughts Tuesday: Socks, allergies and School House Rock

Ran-dom! Ran-dom! Ran-dom! <--- That's my "mental audience" cheering me on in my head. What? Don't you have a mental audience? If not, you should totally get one. When dh says something stupid I don't comment, but look to my mental audience and then back at dh. To be fair, dh does the same to me, though his audience doesn't get nearly as many looks as mine. :)

Hunh, that was pretty random. Yay me! On with the regularly scheduled randomeness:

*Can randomness be scheduled? Apparently it can: Tuesdays.

*I cannot wear socks when I sleep. I feel like I'm suffocating. Isn't that weird? I don't breath through my feet! I also have no problem with blankets being on my feet, but socks make me crazy.

*Despite the fact that I know I can't wear socks while I sleep, I wear them to bed almost every night. Craziness! I know! Actually, I put them on because every night I put Vaseline on my feet to keep them soft. I have to put socks onto keep it from getting all over my sheets while it soaks in. My grandmother used to do this for both her hands and feet (she wore light weight cotton gloves to bed!) and had the softest hands. I don't know about her feet, but I'm assuming it worked because it keeps mine soft and pretty. When you wear high heels (especially high heeled sandals) you need pretty feet. I hate when people have that gross cracked skin on their heels. Ick! Get some Vaseline! I wear a light weight low sock (the kind you can wear with sneakers and not see them) and while I'm sure it sounds super sexy (haha!) dh actually likes that I do this, because other wise I would put my "icy feet of death" (his words) on him.

*At some point during the night, I take my socks off. I don't know how, but they are always off and on floor beside the bed when I wake up. WHAT? Do I do this with my hands? Do I do it with my feet? How do they end up on the floor? It is a mystery.

*Today Indy and I studied verbs for grammar. We watched the School House Rock segment about verbs and I've been singing it all day. "to run, to slide, to jump, to LOOOOOO-OOOOVE!" Man, I love SHR. Remember it on Saturday mornings when you were a kid? "As your body grows big-ger, your mind will flow-er. It's great to learn, 'cause knowledge is power!" If you don't own this DVD, you should. Make your kids watch it. I promise they'll love it. Who doesn't love 'Conjunction Junction?' *Allergies suck. A lot.

*My space bar is still sticking so I have to be very observant when I type. Stupidspacebar!Freakingworkalready!!!!!

*Albert Einstein didn't wear socks. Think his feet were sweaty?

*I lost a follower. It makes me so sad. What did I do wrong?

*M says 'Spaghettioes' smell like poor people. Um, what?

*I just watched the Today Show segment on flip flops and the germs that reside on them and now remember WHY I don't own any. GROSS! BTW, I get the Today Show at 1pm (7am in NY) so I watched it while eating. Nice. I'm totally going to go Lysol all my shoes now.

*I had a great session with my trainer today. She complimented me WITHOUT a backhand! She said I looked trimmer. It's true. I do. There is much less top to the muffin when I put my pants on. Too much info?

*And finally, I'd like to thank our Canadian friends for this little bit of humor. It is awesome. North Vancouver, you rawk!
