Things I Find Disturbing

In no particular order:

1. It turns out that after experiencing negative and just above zero temperatures for about a week or more when the weather is 41 degrees it feels like a serious heat wave. So hot that I was only wearing a thermal shirt and jacket and a thin pair of gloves and a scarf (but that was just too hard to take off). I ended up taking the hat off my head ASAP and by the end of my walking into school from the Starbucks carrying my ginourmous bag I had to unbutton my coat and take off the gloves. It was just that hot...and yet not really and that's disturbing to me. I guess it's true that it's all relative, just like that cousin you have...it's not right.

2. There is a pet store between the bus stop that I get off at and the Starbucks. That in itself is not what is disturbing to me. But what is disturbing to me is that I've never noticed it before and I've walked by there a decent number of times. It had bunnies and a cat in the window and some how I've missed it every time? That seems so strange. I'm sort of wondering if it is one of those Twilight Zone-esque stores that you buy something horrible from and then you go to return it, but the store is gone and you're stuck with the horror and it's creepy. I guess that's not likely, but it is a possibility. I'm glad it was closed this morning because if I had purchased a haunted litter box or something that would be really disturbing for a variety of reasons least of which is that we don't have a cat.

3. Mouth herpes and the possibility that thing near my mouth that is imperceptible to the "normal" naked human eye is one.

4. My lack of motivation. Although I'm getting more and more used to it with every passing day. I suppose that's a bad thing, but whatever.

5. Computer viruses. I don't know if it's the analogy to disease or the fact that they ruin your computer and make your life harder, but I find them very disturbing.

6. The fact that I'm so close to 30. I'm not sad about being 30 I think it's probably going to be just fine, but I'm getting past the age where they can say, "She died young and left a beautiful corpse." I mean, I'll be leaving a beautiful corpse no matter what age I go at, but the young part, you know? Although with the recent demise of Heath Ledger (also 28) everyone says it's a tragedy because he died so young. So that's a boost. Not good that he died or anything, but good for me.
