Nov 24

I decided today that the world is very small. I decided this while sitting in my living room. Nothing fantastic happened, I didn't find a strange connection between two people I knew, I just decided it was very small. Small world things did happen today however. I went Country Dancing for the first time in a long time, had lots of fun, and I saw Ariel. The girl I grew up with, and I saw her crazy mom. :] It was really weird! But it was cool, we like caught up on high school and what not. Weirdness. :] Her best friend's name is Patches. Ha. But that was about it. I worked again for Christian today, and cleaned my butt off. That raise had better be a big one. Me and Jennifer worked so hard on the big mixer. It looks great. :] Something extraordinary happened today. Connor, my Marketplace's boyfriend, chatted me on facebook. He talked to me! Then I gave him my number, and he text me, so now I have his. This is an incredibley large baby step. :] I'm so excited. We will hang out with them when we get back up to Logan. :] The word extraordinary fascinates me. Is it extra ordinary? or extraordinary. When you think about it, extra ordinary would make something extra plain. Or extra boring. So, it's not even that great of a thing. Confusion of the English language. I'm so excited for Thanksgiving. I can hardly wait. :] I like to be thankful for strange and simple things. Like the spacebar. Or the CAPS LOCK. Or the number pad off to the side of the regular keys. When you think about it, if you didn't have these things, life would be extremely different. I like to think about the very tiny things of life that no one else does. I would love to have been there for every cool invention. Like who decided we would need a spacebar? Was it obvious to everyone, or did someone specifically stand and say, "We need a key that will place spaces between our words. It shall be called the spacebar." If you think about it, all the people who invented stuff were viewed as really strange and weird. They were the whack jobs in the neighborhood who were always thinking of crazy projects that were going to change mankind. These projects did indeed change mankind however. Like Model T. I bet before the cars were big, people thought Henry Ford had lost his marbles. We owe all the stuff we have to the whack jobs who were crazy enough to have a dream. The history books are just one big apology to these people. We're trying to make it up to them for calling them whack jobs, even though they knew all along they were changing the world. I hope to some day be a whack job with a dream. I don't have to invent anything complex like the spacebar, but just do something that peoople think is crazy, that will benefit mankind. I don't want to be put in a History book, or get any fame from this. I just hope to inspire someone else to be a whack job with a dream. Everyone at one point in their life should try to be a whack job. Mankind might be a lot better off.
