Thursday Thoughts

As I have been looking over my blog (I like to do that sometimes cause it is fun to remember the random things I talk about) I have noticed that so many of my posts include hardly any of the random thoughts and things that I used to write about previous to marriage. Maybe I am more boring now? I don't know, but I kind of miss those thoughts and I have decided to try to write a little bit every Thursday about the things that I think about or experience. Bear with me. I am not the most entertaining writer, so feel free to just scroll down to previous posts and see some of the pictures that can tell you a lot more than my simple words.

Everybody pees.

Alright, by now I am sure all of you already know I have been sick this week (Have I complained about it enough yet?) However, something kind of funny happened to me today. And by funny I mean it is funny now, but I was kind of scared at the time. I have been staying at my parents house while Jeff is in Vancouver because, yes - I am a wuss - and totally get scared at night in the house that we are living in right now. Everyone knows of my fear of spiders, right? Okay, enough said right there. Well, I came home today to clean up the house and finish the laundry before my handsome man got home. Because I have been so sick (*cough cough, sniffle sniffle*) I really haven't been able to smell very much and, to tell you the truth, it has kind of been nice. Whenever my brothers would let one go, I didn't have to smell it because I couldn't. haha, lucky me? Not sure, anyway when I got home, well, I sat down on the toilet to pee and I noticed that I could smell my pee a little bit. I heard that when you can smell your pee it means that you are dehydrated, which I am really not surprised about because I have been sick and even though I have been drinking SO much water, it makes sense that my body would be soaking up every ounce that I drink because it needs it from all the snot I have been producing and getting rid of. (was that not the worst run on sentence you have ever seen?) Okay, so, back to the bathroom. I noticed I could smell my pee and I thought it was really strange because I haven't been able to smell very well lately. Well, I look down to see if my pee was very yellow (it wasn't, no worries, just the normal yellow) and there swimming in the toilet water-pee mixture was a little spider. Poor guy, I didn't give him a second chance at life to swim to the nearest porcelain that he could reach and I flushed him down with my smelly pee.

I know you are thinking that this is probably really disgusting that I am writing about pee, but I am telling you because it was just the circumstance and I happened to be on the toilet at the time. Everyone pees, right? It really wasn't my fault and I apologize to anyone who is now traumatized for life. I sure will NOT miss these spiders (even though they have dramatically reduced in size and number). They are still not welcome in my home. I'm hoping this fear will get better with time, but until then, you will have to suffer along with me! So long pee spider! You are weird, but now you are dead. hopefully.

*disclaimer: please do not turn me into peta for killing spiders. I love animals, but spiders are vicious and little and sometimes bigger than they should be and scare me a lot. thank you.
