I know what you're thinking...(Okay, I really don't.)
Ha! Thought I would put some sort of general thought in your head, didn't you! No, the truth is no one can read minds, especially through the internet.
Sorry off topic.
Life is a very unexpected thing. You never really know it's there until it runs up and smacks you in the face.
You may even think life is perfect. You may think nothing could go wrong. Things get routine after a while and you're sort of happy about it. That's the point where 'Life' gets bored, turns around and gives you a reality check. It tells you that things have actually been wrong for a while, but you were to caught up in the routine Life gave you, that you didn't even notice.
Don't get me wrong, when Life gets bored it might also throw you a bone.
You might already realize how much your Life sucks, it starts to feel bad and it may give you a raise at your job or something awesome like that.
Everyone's Life is different, which means each life acts differently than the others around it. We just need to learn how to control our Lives and not let our Lives control us.
Just a deep thought of the day.

Pet Peeves
From tapping fingers to not using coasters, people have all sorts of pet peeves. Thank you to the 19 of you who responded to my challenge of care, and to those who didn't...I know who some of you are. (Are you in trouble?) Nope. I just know who you are.
Anyway, I'll get right to the point. I'll list off what pet peeves were given to me in order from which they were received. After each one I'll give my input.
Here's the list:
1. People that interrupt you when your telling a story and then they continue to tell you their story then they ask you in an uninterested tone to continue on with your story when they are finished talking. (Yes...that is quite annoying. Except I was probably on the other end of the conversation.)
2. People who own a dog and have no children and call themselves mommy/daddy. (Guilty.)
3. Not washing hands after using the bathroom. (I completely agree! I have to wash my hands after using the bathroom...why can't you?)
4. The noise people make when they rub their fingers on balloons. (That is a strange pet peeve...but I can understand it.)
5. Facebook Christians who post press 'like' if you love God and they don't portray that they love God anywhere else but on facebook. (I 'like' it and I totally agree.)
6. People who say,"I don't get it." to something really obvious. (I completely understand. It's not hard, actually it's pretty simple. It was my understanding that you were smarter than this, but now I know that you're pretty simple too.)
7. Dirty keyboards. (You must be using one right now...otherwise you'd be thinking of something else.)
8. When I see pee on a toilet seat. (Yes, please have the decency to clean up your repulsive mess.)
9. When people don't send thank you notes. (Are you thankful?? Are you really?? I didn't get a card!)
10. The way people walk in flip flops. (You might as well say you don't like flip flops, because there's only one way to walk in flip flops.)
11. When you're eating candy and someone asks if they can have a red one. (Well, if you're eating reese's pieces, it's easier to say no.)
12. When you can't tell if someone is male or female. (I find that it's best not to guess either..)
13. Movie sequels that are unnecessary. (Agreed! How many 'Bring It On' and 'Air Bud' movies are we going to have??)
14. People who don't use deodorant. (Yes, that is disgusting. But, what you do is buy some deodorant, act like it's an extra and give it to them...it might work.)
15. People who are always late. (By the way, I know who sent these to me...I'm not ALWAYS late...)
16. Mispronunciation of words. (I can relate. I know a couple of people...including myself.)
17. People who try to talk to you when you are going to the bathroom. (Does this include family? Because, if it doesn't...who do you hang out with??)
18. When it's raining and you turn your car off before you turn the wipers off, and they stop in the middle of the windshield, so you turn the car back on, the wipers off, and then the car off. (So...you get on your own nerves? HA! Heh..hm.)
And last but not least:
19. People that argue over things they know nothing about. (Just call them on it, and you win. And honestly, everyone argues about stuff they know nothing about.)
Thank you again to everyone who responded, and also to all my faithful readers. Don't forget to comment and react!

Thinking.
To think of something is an amazing thing. Have you ever realized that when you think of anything you can talk to yourself inside your head? God gave us such an amazing gift. The brain.
The brain is the only organ in the body that no one completely understands. We are still learning about the brain.
We are using our brain to learn about our brain! It's MADNESS!
Just my little thought of the day.
Anyway, to get onto something I care more about...
I have gotten no emails from anyone about the pet peeves thing. Come on guys! I know you care... it's just a little matter of how much you care. I will post my email again and maybe repeatedly until I get those emails, only because I know everyone has pet peeves and I know how much you care.
Again, you will remain anonymous.
Thanks--> jacinda_dawn@hotmail.com

Training Dextor..
I got a dog. Now before you judge me on how much I paid for him, I know. I've heard it all. It was WAY too much to pay for a dog. If I weren't in my shoes, I'd probably slap myself in the face. But in my defense, he's really cute!(Not a very good defense...I know.)
Anyway...He was $580. He's an Australian Shepherd, he has all his shots, he's 9 weeks old, and he's really healthy.
Problems?
There are a few things we need to work on. Such as potty training, not jumping on the other dogs, not chewing up my shoes, not eating cat poo, not eating the other dogs' food, not biting, not attacking the cats, learning to sit and stay, learning to stay asleep at night, not eating Jocelyn's homework, and learning that there are certain areas that he shouldn't potty at.
The good news is: he knows his name and he (sometimes) comes when you call him.
We have quite a ways to go.

Something Random
Last night I was listening to my music, and we all know where that can lead...
That's right. I was dancing! It was a huge performance too, just ask my mom and my sister (or don't).
Anyway, during my spectacular performance, Jocelyn asked me why I wasn't a theater major. I told her, "Because, theater majors are weird." Then she proceeded to tell me that 'I' was weird.
For the record, everyone jumps around, dancing and singing, making weird faces and huge gestures to music all the time. I just choose to do it in front of people. (:
Not just anyone of course. It's okay for my family to believe I'm weird, but the people I see only every now and then...that's a different story. I don't want to appear outlandish or freaky!
Now that I have that out of the way, let's talk about pet peeves.
Do you wanna know what gets on my nerves? When people spell things wrong. (Really?) Yes.
If you're going to spell it wrong, why don't you say it wrong too? I know I spell things wrong. I'm not trying to be hypocritical..but if you're going to spell something, and you don't know if it's correct or you know it's wrong and you can't think of the right spelling, do this:
1. Ask someone around you.
If no one is around:
2. Press spell check, look it up online or look it up in a dictionary.
If no one is around and you don't have a computer or dictionary and you're texting someone or leaving a note:
3. Say you're sorry if what-ever you're spelling is wrong.
If no one is around, you don't have a dictionary or a computer, you're not texting or leaving someone a note:
4. Don't spell it, because, odds are it doesn't matter.
If you have any irrational pet peeves, I'd love to hear about them. Send me a list of your craziest peeves and I'll post some up (with comments from me of course, don't worry, I won't embarrass you. You'll be anonymous). You can email them to me at jacinda_dawn@hotmail.com .

So Many Things to Write About.
There are a great deal of things I could write about. Things that would make people laugh. I could give my opinion on all kinds of matters that would help people understand my views to a greater extent. I could write about things regarding movies, money, family, friends, and even people I see on the street or in wal-mart!
Moments are good to write about! Funny things about life and interesting facts I get off of the internet are enjoyable to everyone.
But, why can't I think of anything...?

Bored? Do SOMETHING!
You know those times when you and your friends are hangin' out and you don't know what to do...so you get bored?
Those are the best times ever! WANNA KNOW WHY?? (Yes, Jacinda! I really do!)
Okay, okay...I'll tell you.
Those are the moments people think of things you'd never do in mixed company....and you DO those things! (Why?)...I have an answer!
You're too bored to do anything else and these things are more than likely thought to be fun, funny, interesting, dangerous, and/or exciting for the mean time...until you get caught! It is very embarrassing when someone from a second party comes in and catches you dancing like a crazy person. That's when you realize you're the last person to notice...
Either THAT happens, or someone tries to talk you out of doing something stupid that you really wanted to do, like seeing if you can hang from the roof by your feet. (WHAT?!)
Alright, that's a little extreme...if you ARE caught trying to do THAT, you should probably be stopped. I mean seriously? Are you crazy?! You can't do that! YOU'LL DIE, YOU NUT!
ANYway...Yeah, boring moments with friends are moments to treasure, to change, to do dares! Take those moments, cherish them, and do something you'd never do!! Like goose hunting....even if there are no geese...hunt SQUIRRELS! There are squirrels everywhere! You don't even have to kill them! Try to pet them and see what happens!
This is THE BEST advice anyone could ever give you! EVER!
That's all I have to say about that.
