Mystery Solved!

I'd like to thank Meg for cluing me in on Wednesday mornings issues with good, solid answers!!  THANK YOU, MEG!!  

Now, I have a few things I'd like to share. I'm not sure if any of you have figured these things out or not. And of course, I may be the last to realize all this.

1. The person who said 72 degrees is comfortable temperature was never a woman having a hot flash.  I have found out it is really some little tweerpy guy living up in North Pole, Alaska.  He might just figure it out on his next trip to the south when he sees a middle-aged woman trying to climb into case in the frozen food section of the local Wal-Mart.

2. You really can sit to much.  I've had to sit more in the last 4-6 weeks more than I normally do. Usually, I don't sit down until around 2:30'ish pm. My butt hurts and is sometimes numb. I think next time I have to get something personalized it might have to say "Numb-Butt' or 'Pain-in-the-Butt'.

3. April Showers bring out weather men that threaten us with tornados. Actually, there is nothing wrong with that, but when you live in the south and somewhere close to the gulf there are always possibilities of tornados. Not a shocker. But please, don't start telling me 3 days before the thunderstorm there is a potential of tornados. I already know that.  Just give it a while. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the weather info, but I really want to wait until it's closer to the real time. *

4. There are people out there in the real world that drive, have jobs, and seem sane... until you get to know them.  Did you know it is virtually almost impossible to separate them from the ones that really are sane sometimes? I have found there is the 'honeymoon' period where these people 'act' sane until they are comfortable with you. And then, it's like something from a terror movie where the mask of sane is ripped off and they become normal. For them, that is....  I know, I know... what is normal?  Meg, can you answer that one??  LOL

Tomorrow is Friday and we can all relax. Thank goodness..... I need these weekends and I bet you do too!

*Author's Note: Please let me seriously stress that tornados are nothing to joke about.  We do have a lot of them in this area. I have seen the destruction they can do and the heartache they can cause. I have a respect for them. I have hovered in a hall, bathroom and closet with my battery-operated tv/radio many times. The weather people lessen the fear in many people because they jump on the tornado bandwagon whenever it sprinkles. And on the other side... apart from all the destruction they cause, they really are a spectacular phenomenon.  Just watch the video. Thank you.

Why yes, yes I can.   You and I, we are normal!!   Heh  
But I know what you mean, there have been times that I thought I'd really found a great friend, only to realize within weeks they were nuttier than a bag o' bolts.   Of course, they mightta thought the same thing about me, and we have already established that I am normal.    
Glad to be of help!   lol

"... that drive, have jobs, and seem sane." I don't know that could sound boring.<g>

My first question is what is BTW?....not being computer literate, I'm embarrassed to ask.

I digress. I know so many women who, at this time, are going through so many hot flashes that my trips to the thermostat are making a path in the floor (and it's tile).

This brings me to the sanity question. The conversation during these "attacks" sometimes scare me. I can't tell you how many conversations I have had with women trying to explain their sensations. Their state of sanity (or lack thereof) sometimes enters into my feeble little mind. Personally I'd rather fight three men and a small bear at at the same time rather than run afoul of a woman suffering these symptons. Kinda makes PMS seem rather appealing by comparison. I think I'll have a beer now, 'cause I'm making myself nervous.

Thanks for always stopping by, Jackie.
