Tuesdays with moreeeee useless information...

Wanna know what I just discovered?  It is sad on multiple levels. Also revealing and slightly funny.

If you happen to accidentally leave a piece of string cheese in a can of Pringles...(YES this just happened to me.  What?) By the next day, said Pringles will no longer be crispy - at all.

And for those of you doing the fitness challenge with me in my ward, you can just stop right there on how it serves me right for buying Pringles in the first place, because...if YOU had been snowboarding all day and it was time to go home, and your closest food choices consist of the contents of a nearby 7-11..and you could either get Pringles or a hot dog you're not sure WHERE it came from...I'm pretty sure you'd choose the Pringles too.

Also, you'd probably grab a string cheese and a water bottle and a two fig newtons on your way out - because...well, you DO need a well-balanced meal...

But then you would have already read this blog so you'd make certain to not accidentally drop half the string cheese in the can overnight.

*sigh* I'm disgusting.  AND sad. Also a little tiny bit funny.  :)

...I also just popped a less crispy Pringle in my mouth because I'm STILL that hungry.

Happy Tuesday.  :)

Also, it was Justin Timberlake's 30th birthday yesterday.  He's totally hot and admittedly single.  Also I've loved him since I was 14 and he was 16. Sit back world, if he's not in a rush or worried about it, neither am I.  I can wait for him.  I can and I will. Also, if I had to choose between him and Usher, I'd cry.  But I try not to get ahead of myself...
 Also, the radio gave me these thoughts today:
Paramore's "You Are The Only Exception"
Okay, ambigious male figure she's singing so lovingly about: you're actually not the only exception.  Just fyi. If she has been content with loneliness to this point, you get to be the "exception" now because you happened to have been smart enough to get and stay on the bandwagon with her.  We can therefore conclude the end result - if you don't get on the bandwagon, someone else will.  So really...you're just the current smartest exception to all the times love is...well, adding to the averages.  :)

Though...as an afterthought, if the dude did well enough for her to write/sing a song about him...I guess he might be the only exception. Ah, crap.  There goes half my argument. :) Whatever.  I still had a stern moment with the radio this morning because of this song, and I'll stand by it. 

You know what?  WAIT.  Nevermind.  I'm assuming she has the same level of commitment when writing a song for a guy that I would.  I don't know her.  She could be writing this stuff for every guy who takes her on a third date! Geez. I'm just saying there's more than one exception out there, kids.  That's all.  That's all I'm tryin' ta say.
Bruno Mars' "Grenade"
This line of thinking should be initially attributed to my happily married friends Cary and Carla, who clearly love each other but also disagree with our dude Bruno, as much as I love him. Uh...I probably wouldn't catch a grenade for ya.  Something about getting my hands blown off is just not appealing...call me selfish. If you want. You'll be wrong, but you can call me that if it makes you feel more top 40s acceptable. I mean, the sentiment is nice and all...I've thought I'd do anything for someone before, but really? A grenade? That's taking this love thing a little too far, don't you think?

All of this is completely irrelevant to life.  I just felt the need to share a lot of useless information today.  :)


P.S. Uh, also, I like both aforementioned songs.  I generally turn them up when they come on the radio.  It's just that this morning we sort of got in an argument about, you know, reality and stuff.

Your random thoughts are STUPENDOUS!

Still laughing at your sad discovery over the pringles/string cheese experiment. Bwa ha! Sounds like something I'd accidentally discover.

I like that Paramore song, but I agree with you.

Also, I only know of a couple of good ol' Bruno's songs, but it seems to me like all of them (all two I've heard--and kind of enjoy) are all lovey dovey. Is that to make him all sultry and appealing? Because I'm still scratching my head over his name.

Seems as if my thoughts for Tuesday are pretty random too. And I thank you for it!

You're being too literal. If you had seen the music video then you'd know that by "I'd catch a grenade for you" he really just means "I'd drag a piano through a heavily congested area of traffic for you."

Makes way more sense.

Listen. Justin Timberlake is my husband so just back the truck up. At least I posted on his actual birthday.

bah bah bah- I'm dying right now. You got me when you stated the obvious fact about catching a grenade and how nearly no one would do that- I mean really- Why don't both of them get out of the way of the grenade and then we are all safe?! Duh.
