Random Thoughts

I was driving a lot yesterday & I was chewing gum (Orbit White Bubblemint - the absolute best!)to stay awake & alert when I had this thought - if you're chewing whitening gum will it work better if you kind of lay it over your front teeth & leave it there for awhile? Kinda like soaking dishes makes them easier to scrub?
Yesterday was my parents 37th wedding anniversary. Holy cow! I never thought they'd make it this far ;-) Instead of going out last night to celebrate they decided to wait until tonight when my sister & her family & I can go with them. Awww! We do really like each other all a bit too much.
Another super random thought...hospitals have lots of those convex mirrors (or as I like to call them, bubble mirrors). They let you see around blind corners. When I first started making lots of deliveries those crazy things really confused me. I would look up there & think, "Wow, that girl in the blue shirt is walking really fast right by me!" and then I would realize that I was the girl in the blue shirt. Makes you feel a little stupid. And I have to admit they still kinda mess me up. The same goes for faucets that have the one lever to operate. What part of the lever is the pointer? The far end or the end closest to the base of the faucet? My mom says I overthink these things but that doesn't comfort me when I stand at the sink for several minutes waiting to see if I just need the hot water to heat up or if I have the stupid lever pointing the wrong way.
When I decided to buy this house I forgot to check the faucets. Oh no.

Crackin' me up -- especially about overthinking about the faucets! We deal with A LOT of faucets week in and week out with our traveling so I can sympathize. Thanks for sharing your random thoughts. I have those kind of thoughts too, and I've had that exact same thought about the teeth whitening gum.

Hee hee! Thanks for sharing your funny thought processes! Can't say that I've given much thought to those things but I have my own very strange quirks. :) Have a lovely weekend!

Did you work in the kitchen, or were you in Hudson? I'm trying to think. I feel terrible, that I can't place you. I guess that was close to 10 years ago. Mabee I'm getting old :D
No matter, its fun to meet up with people you went to college with way back then.

Yes, I heard that if you put your gum over your teeth for several hours throughout the day, it will make your teeth nice and white. Try it!!!! Don't mind all the laughs you will get from other people...just keep thinking how white your teeth will be.
