Sometimes life sucks and leaves some mean hickies
Ever get one of those emails that tell you that you have to send it on to 10 of your closet friends? What about the one that tells you that you have to send it on or you’ll have bad luck? How about the one that says if you send it to so many people you’ll have good things based on how many people you send it to?
I got the following email. I’ve seen something like it before and I thought it had to be forwarded but this one doesn’t say to send it to anyone, it just tells you to think about the things on the list before going on to the next one.
Great, just what I need, more things to think about at bedtime. Oh well.
Speaking of that, have you ever noticed how rude people are while shopping? It’s like they are in their cars while in traffic, I think. How sad that everyone is in such a hurry and don’t realize how they seem when they are out in the public places. I spend a lot of time trying to avoid being hit with shopping carts when I go out. One lady was like “excuse me but can you move?” “Um, no, this is like the expressway, I’m not going to pull out into the path of oncoming traffic or in front of a speeding shopping cart”. How silly people are when they get in a hurry. My dad would say rude and I guess that would be true too.
Anyway…
Think about these one at a time BEFORE going on to the next one…
Falling in love.
Laughing so hard, your face hurts.
A hot shower.
No lines at Wall-Mart.
A special glances.

I believe that friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly….
