...but I like to hear myself talk!

Happy Tuesday!
I ran with Susan this morning. She feared the lightening, so we ran the loop in the park next to the Y. I don't know how far we went, but it was nice to not have a hill facing you while you ran. During our runs we manage to get things off our chest. Her's was the concern she had for her daughter and college - the admissions people are kinda screwy. Me, I openly admitted to having a problem. I like to tell people what they should do. I mean no harm, but I rarely realize that what I am saying is something someone may just not want to hear. Why wouldn't someone want to take good advice? I would. But therein lies the problem. The world is obviously revolving around ME, why else would I have all this great useless information to forcefeed down my co-worker's throats.
A co-worker once told me that while he was at lunch, he ate two large sandwiches (with white bread), then had two large bagels with either peanut butter and/or jelly. Then washed them down with a Dr. Pepper and was dumbfounded as to how sleepy he was by 3 p.m!. There should be a Carboholics Anonymous Group Meeting at the Reservoir Recreational Center. Heck, they have one for the West Nile Virus Support Group! (Is it just me? It's okay, I can take it.) I am not trying to be cynical although the punctuation I have chosen would lead you to believe otherwise. All I am saying is: I have an overabundance of useless information that I know could be useful should there ever be a reality show requiring big-thighed, multiracial women, with an overabundance of knowledge and no one to tell it all to. Granted, there is Jeopardy, but I don't know everything...come on.
So who knows; I may just go to school to authenticate my jabbering with a piece of paper that confirms not necessarily that I know what I am talking about, but that I attended the class. Whether it applies at that particular moment will be... well, it really doesn't matter if it applies! I'm offering good information backed by an accreditted establishment of scholarly excellence. (Hey Susan, how is that for articulate BS?!) Susan thinks I have a way with words.

I pledge to refrain from telling people what they should do and only offer my useless fodder when asked...but I still think you should...
