Clashing Personalities?

I've never read a quote so true. 

I don't know about you, but there are certain people that I just want to punch in the face.

Not that I ever would, but let's be honest, we all have people we are like that with.

I naturally gravitate toward a certain type of person and retreat (and some times cringe or run screaming) from others. I think we all do. We all have people we naturally click with and then there are people you think are just dumb as dirt.

Then there are the people who simply talk and you sit there in silence thinking:

1. How can I make them stop?
2. Why is this person talking to me?!
3. Maybe if I just run away they'll never talk to me again...
4. Still? You're still talking? 
5. When will this end?

The worst part about this is sometimes this person who annoys the hell out of you never did anything to deserve your irrational hatred for their over all being. 

I'm just going to clarify real quick, I would never just punch someone in the face and I would never be rude to someone for no reason.

To deserve the extent of my wrath you have to at least annoy me for reasons other than being alive.



Side note- this post was originally supposed to be about clashing personalities and how to deal with people you clash with. Clearly I'm a tad bit cranky today. 

Craft Night

I know you guys are used to a picture here but the crafts aren't done. So you'll get a picture later. Don't be greedy!

Yesterday was such a great day. My cousin and I spent half the day lounging (this included minor housework, but lots of couchwork) watching some of our favorite movies. As always this was done while sipping, uh, chugging coffee.

The second half of the day was spent in paradise, commonly referred to as Target.

Although we had a screaming baby for some of the time (she was completely inconsolable, so we gave her animal crackers) we had an absolutely fabulous time.

A quick stop at Starbucks and we were ready for the craft store. This stop always takes a real long time for us.

Moral of the story is, we had craft night. When we lived fifteen minutes away from each other, as opposed to the twelve hours that separate us now, we had craft night almost every weekend. It was like we were never apart.

Craft night was what it always had been. It was great to pick up right where we left off.

Do you have any one that you can pick up right where you left off with?

You're a what?

One hundred seventy three page views since I launched the blog yesterday.

WOW! 

You guys are amazing! Thank you so much for your support! I never could have imagined having that many people reading my writing, again, thank you so much.

I promised that I would add another post if we got to 100 today, and well you guys made it way past that! Granted this could be considered morning as opposed to the "evening" post I promised. But hey, things happen!

So here we are, second post (all because you all are SO awesome). While I was partaking in the "things happen" part of my night I had a few thoughts.

First, I have awesome friends. Sometimes we need breaks from each other (we're all pretty obnoxious) but, that being said, we are always there for each other.

One of the conversations tonight was about how I'm introverted. My friend didn't really know what the term "introvert" meant so I explained, "Well, it's like how I don't really like to have a bunch of friends and I kind of just listen as opposed to talking". (Don't judge my grammar here, it was late. I mean it is ONE in the morning.)

Now, I have a few friends who tell me constantly that I need to talk more or socialize more (or do whatever they currently need a wingman for) but her response was different. "Well, if you're happy with having four friends then I'm happy for you".

This is what friendship is really about. Not wanting to change your friends into something you wish they would be, it's about accepting them for who they are.

Even if you love TV shows like Doctor Who, Supernatural and Star Trek and your friend would rather watch Grey's Anatomy all day. You still love each other for your differences... okay except for Star Trek. Who has never seen an episode of Star Trek?!
