So sunday is the day of rest...Why don't you wear pajamas all day? This is a question I began to ask myself earlier this evening as I took a drive (in my pajamas) to a friends house to pick up some music for a musical that I will be playing in this week. I guess one argument against wearing pjs all day on sunday is that some people either don't wear pjs, or their pjs are not out door appropriate. I feel bad for these people, because they are missing out on the fun of looking lazy and feeling comfortable in public. Wearing pjs in public is more of a statement than anything. You might think that you are just wearing your pjs to feel comfortable and because none of your regular clothes are clean, which isn't a big deal except that you spilled all manner of unclean things on your jeans and they smell like something unpleasant. But, what you are telling everyone else is that you are comfortable with who you are, you don't care what other people think, and that you aren't afraid to be yourself. Don't be surprised if you get a standing ovation after going out in your pjs...I know I am not surprised when I do. That or they are applauding for the performance I am at, but I hardly doubt that. Speaking of standing ovations...I don't believe that people, in general, understand when you are suppose to give one. If whatever you saw or heard moved you, and you felt it was very well done, then you get to stand and clap until your hands sting. I believe that a lot of people just give standing ovations because something is over, and they are preparing to leave. This is a bad idea, because if you give a standing ovation and the performers have an encore you are gonna be in a world of hurt. Because you just bought yourself another 5-10 minutes of what you were standing up to leave. What I am trying to say is just be aware of what you are doing, and why you are doing it. The government has a serious problem with that concept, so try and learn from their idiocy. While I am on this subject, how many other things do people do without being aware of what they are doing or why they are doing it? I am going to assume that people, on average, do at least 1 thing a day that fits that description. For example, I time and time again find myself conversing with people that I don't really care to be talking too. Or, I will go out of my way to go say hi to someone that I briefly knew in high school, then halfway through the conversation I realize the reason that I haven't kept in touch with them. There are plenty of other little habits that people have that don't make any sense. Unfortunately, I can't think of any right now, but I think that everyone should just have that question in the back of their mind the next time they do something. Ask yourself what you are doing and why you are doing it. You might find the answer to be somewhat amusing...I know I do. You can even ask the question to yourself when you see other people doing stuff that is seen as "normal", but in reality really makes no sense. Speaking of people watching that is pretty much my favorite pass time. I love observing people, and watching the strange things they do.
So I was just talking to my mother and a question came to my mind. Does anyone else have a hard time making decisions? Because I have an incredibly hard time doing so. I am really good at narrowing down choices, but if there is more than one thing left, which there normally is, I can't decide. It is like there is a big equal sign between each of my choices. I feel that this is probably the most prominent reason that I would need a wife, other than the obvious things...like foot rubs, food that isn't microwaved and has the consistency of rubber, being the mother of my children, and someone to keep me company in times of distress and even joy. I am positive that if I do get married she needs to be a decisive woman, because if she isn't our children will likely have way too many names, and we will be paying a mortgage on two houses because we couldn't decide between them. If she is decisive I will likely be wearing clothes that make me look good, our kids will have names that are both intelligent and attractive, our house will be perfect, and probably most important I won't have to make any decisions other than whether or not to go to the bathroom as soon as nature calls. By the way these fantasies are based on the fact that I can, in fact, have kids. I am gonna be honest, adolescent boys are not very kind to other boy's reproductive organs. So here's hoping for the best.
So you may be wondering, since it has been so long since I have blogged, why am I now at this time writing a blog. Well here is your answer. Earlier this evening I was taking a quiz for one of my classes. These quizzes use to take me about 45 minutes or so to finish because I had to find the answers in a book whose chapters were way to long and boring. Well I found out last week that google searches google books and pretty much allows you to find any information from any page of a book that is in google books data base. Well the book for my class is in google books. Thus, I just searched the key terms from the quiz questions, found the answers, and finished the quiz in about 10 minutes saving time and a large amount of pointless effort. You are probably now thinking "Jake that is cheating, you should be reading the book, and then answering the questions." My response is that I would read the book if I felt that it was, in any way, important to my future. But alas, I did not feel that way about this book. So there you have it. I hope you have enjoyed your time reading this. If you haven't then I am proud to say that I have effectively wasted a great deal of your time. So either way I win! Yay me!!!
