Ever noticed?

Have you ever noticed how many stupid little things annoy you throughout the day?

Today I was riding my bike through campus from the FAC (Fine Arts Center to all you non-USU-ians) to the Institute building. Three people were walking down the sidewalk together and didn't move far enough out of the way so I had like a foot of sidewalk to ride my bike on. Why? Can they not squish over to the edge of a 5 foot concrete strip for like 2 flippin' seconds to let a bike slide by?!

I was driving to Wal-Mart with Chelsie on Tuesday. When I realized I was driving the wrong way I pulled into another parking lot to turn around. Apparently I turned in front of someone and we almost died, but it really wasn't that close and the person probably had to tap on their brakes to keep from hitting us. But what did he/she do? He/she unleashed like a 10 second honk that probably startled everyone around him/her as well as Chelsie and me, so I flipped out and almost crashed into another car that had pulled into the parking lot before me. Now, was that completely necessary? Sure it was my fault, but did he/she really need to display that kind of overreaction?!

I was tired the other night, and I was in bed ready to fall asleep in bed by eleven thirty. Eleven thirty!! That's unheard of in LindsayLand. But for some reason my brain would not deactivate for the night. It never stopped thinking! Why brain?! Also, my roommates had friends over until like one in the morning... normally it doesn't bother me at all, like really, but the fact that my brain was in hyperdrive made the fact that they were talking outside my room made me mad, even though any other night my roommates are wonderful and that wouldn't bother me at all. Why Lindsay's brain?! Why do you steal sleep from me?!


Moral of the story you'd never guess if you read the actual story and can't read my mind:
Sure, there are little things every day that make us want to rip our hair out.
Do they matter?
Nope.
In most cases the amazing happy things outweigh the stupid little ones.
So forget about them and smile.
Life is good.

Live For Today

:D :D :D
