When I was little I used to do them in rainbow order, but as I grew older I always do them least favorite to favorite, though I usually eat one at a time, I wonder why so many others eat two at a time, but I guess I don't line them up in rows either, I put them in pretty circles in a pattern with one in the middle and the rest surrounding it. Is that weird? But they always have to be in equal amounts and I just adjust the pattern to fit how many candies are left. I don't really like purple skittles but I loved the light brown M&Ms! Why did they leave me?! Blue just doesn't cut it, though I did vote for blue... but that was before I knew they were axing the light brown ones! Hm, I think about what I'm going to make for dinner before I eat lunch and have my entire half of the next day planned before dinner. If someone can find the off switch Karen and I are looking for I will totally share my lottery winnings with them... when I win them.Jaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10100881518236099813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702503971335931295.post-38225353923304747452007-08-12T11:28:00.000-07:002007-08-12T11:28:00.000-07:00Yeah, I think constantly, too.

I'm usually too absorbed in my thoughts to pay attention to driving. I have morning and evening routines so that my body knows what to do while I think. Rather than planning out dinner, my hunger panges tell me it is time to eat and I throw in a microwave dinner in order not to disrupt my thinking. So yeah, I guess I think a lot, too.kikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374246013309646887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702503971335931295.post-34368965409465267882007-08-09T18:27:00.000-07:002007-08-09T18:27:00.000-07:00On some level I know that there must be people out...On some level I know that there must be people out there who are not innately curious and questioning and self-aware and always seeking knowledge and answers... but I just can't really comprehend it. I can't imagine looking at the world in black and white or thinking I know all the answers. It seems wrong to me that anyone should be that way, but I know they're out there, and it kind of scares me.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14894131042735833767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702503971335931295.post-67361970144550943402007-08-09T14:58:00.000-07:002007-08-09T14:58:00.000-07:00Man...

If I'm at a movie or in public, I'll eat them "normally", one or a few at a time, indiscriminately. But when left to my own devices, I totally organize them into rows of two, separated by color/flavor. I eat the odd stragglers first, in order of my least favorite color/flavor to my favorite. Then once I have an even number of each color/flavor, I eat two at a time from each flavor... keeping the nice even rows of two. Still following the same pattern of least favorite color/flavor to favorite, of course. I knew I wasn't the only person to ever do that... but it's kind of nice to see my weird obsession in picture form. :)John Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565776159929103163noreply@blogger.com
