Junk On the Brain

Sometimes my mother calls me just to vent, to be a listening ear when she needs it. Often time I have nothing of value to offer her and hardly respond with words of wisdom, but she just sighs, says thank you, and then hangs up. That's it. All she needed was someone to listen and nod.

I'm definitely my mother's daughter because sometimes all I want is someone to reach out and say, I feel you, boo…

In light of this, here's the junk floating in my mind:
*I shouldn't have eaten that red velvet donut three nights ago…STILL feeling guilty about that.
*Sometimes I wear workout clothes in hopes of making it to the gym, but it doesn't work as well as I hope.
*I'm sitting on my living room floor because we STILL don't have furniture from that order we placed back in August.
*How soon is too soon to shop for Christmas gifts?
*I order take-out and place it on a plate to pretend I made dinner.
*You never question your taste in furniture until you try to sell it on Craig's List…and no one buys it.
*My best friend challenged me to a cleanse: 21 salads in less than10 days…we're so competitive we fight over kale.
*Sometimes I buy new socks instead of washing my dirty socks.
*Had our Christmas photos taken this week and I had an awkward outfit moment. Now the rest of my life I'll look back at 2013 and wonder why I thought billowy shirts looked good on me.
*I talk to my dog as much as I talk to my husband. Is that weird?
*I'm already stressed out about what I should cook for my in-laws Thanksgiving dinner. Maybe I should just bake Pillsbury crescent rolls and call it a day.
*In case you feel bad about being lazy, I iron my collar with hair straightener. You're welcome.
