Odds and Ends

You know how I cleaned out my entryway closet and put those mismatched baskets up on the shelf?

Yeah, those.

In the end, they bothered me too, so I went through the house trying to find 3 like baskets and came up with these. I felt the need to put your minds at ease. I know a few of you were close to anxiety attacks over it. And guess what? As I looked for baskets I found another one:

That I could use to put all my umbrellas in. Who knew we had all those umbrellas? Not me. I couldn't find them and kept buying more thinking that the kids had lost them when in reality they were hiding in the pile in the closet.

Yesterday I went to put my contacts in and my right one tore. This wouldn't necessarily be a big deal but I only had one more pair for each eye, so I knew that I needed to make an appointment with an eye doctor. So I opened the new contact package and that one was torn. Which left me with no right contact. Which now was a big deal because I HATE my glasses.

Trace says that I look smart with my glasses. Does that mean I looked dumb before?

He wants me to walk around like this telling people that I'm a scientist working on the super collider. Think they'll believe me? I'm going to walk around with my finger on my cheek like I'm trying to decide what speed to set the collider at to smash those electrons. Or is it neutrons? I guess I better get my story straight before I start "talking shop." I think this makes me a physicist now and all because of my glasses.

I've been "communicating" with several guys on eHarmony over the last couple of days. It's all very odd. They tell you that they want to communicate and send you five multiple choice questions. You answer and then send them five. Then they send you three questions that you have to answer with your own words, then you send three questions. Then they send you "open communication" which is like an email but at the eHarmony site.

I'm still not sold on this. It all seems very business like, very cut and dry. I just started open communication with two guys today and they both seem very eager to "get to know me" but I can't say the same. Maybe I'm not ready for this after all. Or maybe it's just not the right guy. I plan on doing a post about some of the men in a day or two.

Do you think they'll be intimidated that I'm a physicist?
