Greatest Hits (?)

This is admittedly self-indulgent, but nobody says you have to read any further than this. I was bored this afternoon and trying to distract myself from the vague depression that accompanies a stupid, gray, foggy, rainy day in late December, so I went back to find my favorite Facebook status updates from 2010. These were lines just for Facebook - no quotes, no word counts, not really any moments of important news being conveyed. Just lines I liked. Here we go....

********************

Just watched "Memento" and "Groundhog Day" back to back. The world does not make sense to me right now.

Today was a long week.

Graffiti from the back of a spelling test: "Yo-Yo Wats up??? I'm freakishly bored! Hi!! I love dance! So psyched for Saturday!! Heyyyyy!!!! Wazz up homedog???" Front of the test: A perfect score with hearts dotting the 'i's. I think I should at least be referred to as "Mr. Homedog."

The smoke alarm telling you the battery is low? Yeah. Better ways to wake up in the morning.

I hate my phone so much I want to smash it into individual atoms.

Relay for Life this evening. While at the Y I'm on the treadmill, watching The Today Show. Train performs on the summer concert series. Of course. (Only a small number of people would understand this, but trust me -- it's meaningful.)

In a simple two-week period, Silly Bandz have gone from something of which I only had a passing awareness to the bane of my very existence.

Screw the laws of physics. I'm makin' up my own.

Dear Troy Aikman - you either 'establish' a routine, or you 'continue' a routine. You cannot do both concurrently. Stop trying to use big words before you hurt yourself.

When was it decided that "applewood-smoked" bacon was supposed to be any better? I don't remember being consulted on this.

Dear Paul McCartney, thank you for not playing your truly awful Christmas song on SNL. It would have ruined my day.
