Still Figurin' Out Who I Think I Am

This one's about my sweaty listicle.

BLOG CITY PROMPT: "Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things. Take this and apply it to your blog in any way you see fit."

What's up y'all? I've been dilly-dallying through most of my free time today, so I guess you could say I wasted every opportunity I've had to write a full blog entry two days in a row. On the plus side however, I managed to finally learn how to take a nap during my four hour Tuesday break, which actually worked out pretty well...so by tomorrow, I should be all caught up on sleep, mostly healed from the cold I had over the weekend, and down for whatever else the rest of the week should throw at me.

Well, I try not to sweat the petty things...but sometimes you just need to prove a point or can't easily let go of something that, for lord only knows why, seems so very important. Inconsequential in every venue except your heart, mind, or both. Why are we like this? What drives us to become stark raving lunatics over something only we care about? I'm sure there's been some kind of study done on this (and I'm too lazy to Google it right now or else I totally would), as undoubtedly it happens a hell of a lot more than we care to admit.

On the other hand, petting the sweaty things...I'm of two vastly different minds when it comes to this: 1) Does this happen so much in such a disgusting fashion that we had to rearrange the letters of one of literature's best coping and motivational guides to suit the lesser-informed population; and 2) If we're being true to our primal urges and tendencies, is this really such a bad thing?

I say: if it feels good, go with it; if it doesn't, it's most likely wrong. That's some advice you can use in many facets of your life, free of charge.

MUSICAL BREAK!!

No matter which side of the argument (if there even is one) you're on, perhaps this is your best first step.

And it's about that time...I've had my first yawn of the evening, so I better wrap this up and start the sleep-prep ritual if I wanna be out by 1am (I'll settle for not knowing when I'll fall asleep as long as I can sleep through the whole night). Peace, with those laser beams, and GOODNIGHT NOW!!
