These are my confessions…
1) This is in reference to yesterday’s blog post and those old-school cell phones. The kind that flip. The kind that don’t have Facebook apps, Snapchat, or Candy Crush to distract humans from real life. Some days, I think about reverting back to my old phone. I would be so much more productive with my time. But then I think about how I would probably get lost without Waze. And/or suffer from early signs of arthritis from trying to text message using T9.
2) Last week, I flew from the Bay Area to OC and, since there were long lines during check-in and through security, I spent a lot of time observing the other travelers. A lot of families. A lot of kids. If you asked me ten years ago what my life would look like when I was 30, I would confidently say, “Married. With two kids.” I’m nearly 30. And none of those things are true. Confession? I’m a-OK with that at this point. I can’t imagine having to travel with children right now. I AM CHILDREN.
3) I hate changing the toilet paper roll. When it looks like the roll is coming to an end, I’ll leave JUST enough to allow the other person one wipe so that THEY have to be the one to switch out the roll. And on the off-chance that there’s only enough for one person and I really gotta go, I set the old one aside, grab a new roll, and hope that the next pooper will feel more inclined to toss the old one in the trash.
4) I confess. When I am done having a text messaging conversation, I will use a lot of emojis to signal IT IS THE END. I don’t know how to exit text messaging conversations. “Okay, gotta go!” seems awkward. “BRB” seems too confusing for the recipient. Emojis just seem like the best way to say, “I’m putting my phone away now. So accept this offer of hearts, thumbs up, [an occasional wine glass], and the party hat with confetti. DON’T RESPOND.”
