My Brain is a Big Hot Mess

I spend a fair amount of time each day thinking about stuff.  And when I say "stuff" I mean mostly ridiculous stuff.  Then I have to wonder if other people spend a fair amount of their days thinking about ridiculous stuff too.  Like why is jalapeno bacon so damn good or why do people love kittens so much? 

The thing about me is I don't really like to keep my ridiculous thoughts to myself.  If you hang out with me for any amount of time you'll quickly learn that I say a lot of really brilliant things with wreckless abandon (aka I say a lot of completely idiotic things that will make you raise your eyebrows and wonder why you are hanging out with me).

I was having lunch with one of my fabulous friends yesterday and she said to me that the difference between us was that she had a lot of the same thoughts I did, but I actually say them out loud.  She seemed pleased by that.  A little impressed even.  Maybe that means by verbal filter is faulty or that I'm a tad mentally challenged. 

Since I'm a glass half full kind of girl I'm going to pretend it's a good thing.  I think far too many of us don't share our genuine thoughts and feelings with each other because we worry what people will think...maybe they'll think we are crazy or stupid or inappropriate or completely ridiculous.  The thing is there is an equal chance that just maybe they will be amazed.  Amazed because they've had the same thoughts and felt really alone because they thought they were the only one.  I'm working on being real all the time.  I think, quite possibly, it could make my world a better place.
