I just have a few things to mention. A couple random occurrences that made my day a little better.
1. I love mall cops. Only a certain kind of mall cop, though. The kind that ride around in the white and blue SUV's and block you every time you try and pull out of a parking spot? Not quite. The ones that ride around on segues? Absolutely. Today, as I was leaving a shopping center I catch a glimpse out of my peripheral vision of a mall cop in his bright yellow shirt (stylin' and profilin') completely HAULING ASS across the parking lot. Where could he possibly be going that would require him to speed up to 80 mph on his segue? Did someone try on a blouse that they need in a different size or color immediately? Calm down, Rambo. Your scooter might suffer. One thing I don't quite understand is how I have never seen this little nugget before. I've been frequenting this shopping center for the last 10 years of my life, and I have never been privileged enough to capture this sight with my own eyes. I'll count my blessings, I suppose.
2. It's recently been brought to my attention how annoying people are. Now, so I don't offend all 2 of my blog readers, I'll explain. Not all of you are annoying. Just those of you who come in after a movie has started and feel the need to scream at the person you're with. I'm a person who sincerely enjoys watching the previews to movies, so this severely bothers me. If I'm sitting in a movie and the most intriguing preview in the world comes on about some incredibly thought provoking new film, please do not sit there shining your damn cell phone on the entire audience and scream "WHERE DO YOU WANNA SIT?!?". Dearest, just pick a chair. Preferably empty, but beggars can't be choosers. And, for the love of God, if there are 5 people in the movie theatre, do not sit within a three chair radius of me. Social skills, children. Develop them. And, if you take my foot rest, so help me, I'm not afraid to lunge across the back of your chair and give you a swift slap to the jaw. Just sayin' kids. Use your noggins.
3. This is a little less rant-y and a little more level-headed. I've rediscovered a website recently (originally introduced to me by my friend Alex). It's called themansguidetolove.com. Seriously, look it up. Relationships are so interesting these days, especially for women. With books like "He's Just Not That Into You" (my Bible, and part of the reason that I'm half-crazy) and "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man" so much of the control in a relationship is put in a man's hands (which is totally fine in my book, because apparently I've written one, too.). But, as a woman, we're made to think that men are solid foundations and we need to change and stop being who we are just for the sake of finding "the one". What I've found from this website is that men care and are just as emotionally connected as we are, they just don't want to mention it. I call bullshit, society. So, girls, instead of sitting next to your phone wondering if Mr. Wonderful is going to call, go check this website out. It's actually pretty encouraging. It's fun to watch men talk so candidly about something as complex as love. Your reactions will probably range from "awwww" to "ugh!", but it's worth it.
Anyway, that's all I have for tonight! Until the morning,
Sydney
