Things I've Been Thinking...

  • I go to the post office a lot and it has a distinctive smell. Today I finally figured out what it smells like...Play dough!
  • I have often wondered why our local Goodwill is no good in terms of finding finds. You know why? Because all the good stuff lives at Salvation Army. Going back asap!
  • Food is funny. I hated guacamole and ranch dressing growing up. I thought they were "grody." Now I simply can't get enough of either.
  • You know how many times I think "wow, God is amazing?" A lot. You know how many times I should be thinking "wow, God made that and did that and works in that and is doing that?" Infinity x a lot.
  • Everyone should keep Ramen Noodles in their house. The noodles can go in salads. The seasoning can spice up chicken. Or you can be like me and just eat it, a lot. I eat more Ramen now than I did in college. I have to use a spoon AND a fork. I don't break up the noodles (hence the fork) and I like just a little bit of broth (in comes in the spoon). I also think how you prefer your Ramen speaks a lot about you. It's funny that my longest thought is about Ramen. What does THAT say about me?
  • [Watching Wheel of Fortune] Gosh I am bad at Wheel of Fortune. I am, however, a rock start at Family Feud.
  • [Pursuing the shelves at the library] Boy there are a lot of self-help Christian books. Do we really need them? What kind of book would Jesus write? Oh wait...
  • Sometimes I see students on campus wearing ridiculous things and I think "is it serious, is it silly, or did they lose a bet?"
What are you thinking about RIGHT NOW!?

  1. I just wrote one of the things i've been thinking about a lot lately in a blog scheduled for tomorrow morning. A summary of it is people take life WAAY too seriously.

    And your one about the christian self-help books really is so true.... though I own a lot of christian books (idunno if they're necessarily self help) but most of them i haven't read.

  8. I was just thinking about your last comment about what the kids on campus wear. It made me think of a guy in our church who had a very long mohawk and a beird. He lost a bet, so he had to shave his head and now just has a bald head with a beird. It looks kinda weird. (Sidenote: Said guy is a friend of my husband and I. We really think he is an awesome fellow. He just has different style than we do.)

  9. I am thinking that I haven't heard anyone say "grody" in such a long time! Haha! That's awesome! I had forgotten that word. :)

  10. I wish my PO smelled like Play Dough. I love that smell. I also love SalVal (do people in other areas call it that or just us up here?)

    Still hate ranch dressing and guacamole. Yucky.

    I have only eaten Ramen in college. Not my favorite. WAY too salty.

    Wheel *pause* of *pause* Fortune . . . LOVE THAT SHOW. I used to have the hand-held game because I loved it so! I am good at Wheel, hubby is good at Jeopardy. I think that says something about us.

    Yup, self-help books annoy me :/.

    I often wonder what people are thinking when the get dressed, including myself.
    HAHA

  11. I was just thinking of having some Ramen for breakfast. I hate breaking up the noodles too. I like the long pieces.

    I love the Salvation army!! I think I may have to pop by this weekend!

    And I say Grody So much!

    lol.

  12. This is a great post! Value Village is where the treasures are found in my neck of the woods. I have never actually eaten Ramen noodles... but I assume they are very similar to Ichiban. :)
