Random in Review.

1. Sketchy guys on Amtrak---not into it.  So, I was on the train to NY on Friday and this older gent sits next to me and starts talking.  I am really bad at avoiding eye contact and not talking, so it turned into a 4 hour chat.  Three hours in, he asked for my number. Agh. Sometimes it is hard to say no, with there being an hour left and all, and the conversation isn't actually bad, but realistically, do I want to hang out with this way older man?? No. And then afterwards, there is the realization that the entire trip was actually sketchy and then you feel sketchy and bad.  But, on an a bright note---a couple of things to take from this.  One being that I have realized (for the millionth time) that fake numbers/nice rejections need to be on-hand at all times. Secondly, if you are looking to get a number or a yes to a proposal, the train with an hour left is a really good option for not getting rejected.  That, or in the middle of the night.  My best friend got proposed to when she was half asleep.  Dude had it in the bag! That, and she loves him and stuff.

2. Pants---so over them.  Once a year I try to put on pants and it just doesn't go well. I don't understand them.  They are long and hang in weird areas.  I have officially given up on them and have basically gone to tights/leggings with a dress in the winter.  I gotta say, the tights/leggings situation is also starting to get me down.  I walked around on Saturday in fleece-lined leggings that kept falling down to uncomfortable areas and I simply could not deal with my life.  I was honestly about ready to give up.  I think the moral of the story is that I need it to be summer and I just want to be free.

3. "Wild"--Reece Witherspoon movie.  My friend really wanted to see this because she was under the impression that it would be inspirational.  It was pretty inspirational, but mainly, I have realized how  much I don't want to do heroin.  I never really thought about doing heroin. I am fairly certain I would be terrible at it, especially considering that I am not good with fire and pass out with needles.  "Wild" has further emphasized my non-desire to add junkie to my extracurricular activities.  It has also made me not want to cheat on my non-existent husband.  I would, however, consider backpacking through the wilderness for 6 days, maximum.

4. Getting low as a way to express oneself.  5 stars.

5. Cute guys in yoga---mixed bag. Initially, I was pretty stoked to see an attractive, non-married, heterosexual dude partaking in limbering activities.  But in all honesty, his attractiveness made it harder for me to breathe properly and I fell down multiple times as a result.

6. Gospel music.  5 stars.  I went to my friend's mom's gospel performance on Sunday.  Amazing.  So much.  That is some ish that I can get into. So much clapping and (naturally) singing, right in my voice range, I'm telling you, I'm legit looking into joining a gospel choir.  Gospel choir will be my heroin,
