Mind crossings

Things I thought about over the last few says. Now that I have this repository for all lf these musings, I havc to keep a list of what I need to put out here. Yes, another list!

1. Entering your address on the web
I wish that they could change the drop down box you get for the state when entering your name and address into anything on line. If they made it longer you would not also have to scroll down before you can get to Texas. You could just click on it, like the people can who live in the "top of the alphabet states.

2. The time zone, the time change and my cell phone
I guess that it can only be wrong twice a year, but now that the time has changed, I have to changed my appointments scheduled in my calendar. When it changes the times, it resets all pf the recurring calendar items too. David tells me that my cell phone Razr v3) is not as smart as his, and he can designate his time zone for recurring calendar appointments. I guess I need to get smarter, or get a cell another cell phone.

3. You are what you eat
Plants have no cholesterol. It is only animal products that do. I just found that out a couple weeks ago. Did everyone (except me) already know this?

4. Equal time
I thought that it used to be a rule that all political candidates had to be given equal time. Is this still true? I see candidates on talk shows etc. all the time, but I do not see that they followup to assure that ALL of the candidates get their chance? It doesn't matter which "side" you are on; I do not see that all of the candidates are represented with equal time on all of these shows. Wasn't this a "rule" before, or am I crazy? (That last question is just a rhetorical ; no need to respond.)

5. Trying new stuff
5. I sent to have a pedicure for the first time ever on Thursday. It was pretty good, and I will have to try it again.

6. Take your tape measure to Subway
We went to a new Subway this evening. Not only did the server drag some end piece of bread from somewhere, it was NOT thick or six inches. I measured it when we returned home with our two sandwiches. It was a flat piece of bread (origin unknown) and a lot shorter that the 6 inches I ordered. Next time, if I notice it happening again, I will just stop the server there and tell them to do it over. But, if I getting TWO, from now on, I will insist that the two sandwiches come from a single loaf of fresh bread......

7. A "cherished" moment between a Mother and her beloved
Who else but your own son, your only child, would love you enough to tell you the truth and make you laugh so much? When I was seriously, telling him the Subway story (see above) he told me "you know, you are bats**t crazy, and others need to know that before they get involved with you in these types of situations. You have to get a t-shit that says ' I am bat**t crazy. Proceed with caution.' " I laughed a lot over that one. After all, we know he did not mean it and it is not really true, right? I should get the t-shirt made anyway just to humor him! :)
