222

Introduction

Good evening! So tonight we had a massive storm while I was at work. I saw that the storm was starting to pick up so I went outside to bring in all our promotional signs and flags inside. In the 2 minutes I was outside, I had dust fly into my eye, causing me to be temporarily blinded for 30 seconds and in that time one of our flags fell over on top of me. I seriously hope nobody was watching at this point in time.
            So, I just received a text from my friend Jenna who is in Vegas right now (I could not attend because I had to work) and she is currently partying with one of my biggest heroes, SNOOKI! I feel sick with jealousy. I would do anything to meet Snooki. I know we would be best friends. I legit want to barf because I’m so upset that I’m not there.
            On another note, I am currently watching television, the weather to be exact and first of all the weather girl’s dress is a hideous display of bad judgement. It looks like someone who lived in the 60’s and had no money and a horrible fashion sense. The sound on my TV is being weird, making her sound like Lil Wayne. The Marine Land commercial was previously on where they sing that annoying song and it sounded like a Lil Wayne remix, it was quite hilarious.
            Anyway, enjoy the blog. (I’m miserable)



222

I see the number 222 absolutely everywhere. At first I thought it was a coincidence but after the billionth odd 222 sighting I am convinced it means something to me. Let me share some of my weird sightings. I won't name them all because I've been seeing it almost every day for a couple years now.

How did it start? Well I attended a conference a couple years ago and one of the fellow attenders was staying in room 222. Now, everyone at this conference kept repeating room 222 all week because the girl staying in that room had brought a lifetime supply of fudge, so that's where you wanted to be if you had a sweet tooth or the munchies.  222 was sort of the joke of the conference.

Every single day I NEVER miss when it is 2:22pm...NEVER. It is weird because I sometimes find my eyes or head being drawn to the clock when it is that time. Even if I am not in a rush or if I don't necessarily care what time it is, I will always jerk my head towards the clock to check when it is 2:22.

One night, just over a year ago I was sleeping and I had a nightmare and jolted up in my bed. I looked over at the clock and it was 2:22am.

One night only a couple months ago I was sleeping in my Mom's bed because it is way more comfy and I had one of those weird half dream things where you are awake with your eyes open but you think you see things. Anyway, I saw a "ghost" in the corner of the room and it frightened me to the point where I snapped out of my half dream. I looked at the clock and yep, 2:22am.

Cars with 222 license plates are constantly driving in front of me.

I went to the hospital to have a surgical procedure done where I was awake for it. I lay on the operating table and I was so scared I decided to try and focus on an object instead of looking around the room at the scary instruments. I looked straight up and the product number on the lamp was 2.22.

The day after my surgical procedure I went to Wendy's with my friend Amanda (love). We ordered our food and then the attendant asked us if we would like sauce or something (I can't remember exactly what it was) with our meal and we said yes. So she yelled to the kitchen staff, "I need some sauce for order 222." We both looked at each other and were like, woah.

I am CONSTANTLY seeing items that cost $ 2.22. For example the other day I went to pump gas and on the gas nozzle was an ad for a product that was $2.22, there was a sign at the store I went to the other day, .2 for $2.22, I always see 2.22 in advertisements.

I had a virus or some defect on my computer, it was defect number 222.

At work I was stacking boxes and the order number on them was 222.

This is the weirdest one. One day I was at work a few months ago and I was so bored. I had a calculator in front of me and I thought to myself "here is the test. I am going to press a bunch of random buttons on this calculator and see what it equals. If it is 222 then this number means something to me." Honest to Pete, I am not lying and/or exaggerating, I closed my eyes, hit several random buttons so fast that I couldn't tell you what I had hit, pressed the = sign and it was 222. My heart sunk. I didn't know whether I was blessed or cursed.


There are SO many more 222 encounters, I can't even count. I decided to look up the meaning on the internet and there are several meanings. A few sites said that if you see it often, it means you are on the right track. Also, I am not the only one who sees this everywhere. There is a Facebook group and a website for people who see 222 everywhere! I am convinced it has a deep meaning for me and I've come to feel comfortable with the number. It is almost like a guiding light, I feel like when I see it I am where I am supposed to be. Weeeird.

My Habits

Introduction

Hi! So I’ve been thinking that some of my posts may be too long what with having an Out-dated Update, a Try This! and a Topic of the Day every blog. Therefore, I think I might not include all three of these in every single blog. I do not want to discourage someone from reading my blog due to crazy length! Today’s blog is primitive and it doesn’t involve a lot of deep thinking!


My Habits

We are all made up of habits, whether they are derived from nature or nurture, whether they are good or bad, and whether or not we notice them or have to be pointed out to us. Here are some of my habits that I've noticed and some that have been brought to my attention.

-When I am watching television, I love to pick the dead skin off my feet and put it behind my couch. We all have something we like to collect and this just so happens to be my thing so leave me alone about it. My mom is less than supportive of my hobby and vacuums it up daily.

-I hate bringing things in from my car. I don't know why but I hate carrying things from my car to my house to I have a junk collection in my car. I used to blame the mess on my brother but since he bought his own car, I have no scapegoat.

-I don't refill ice cube trays when they are empty. I hate taking the time to do it.

-When the ticket ripper at the movies says "enjoy your show" I always say "thanks, you too"

-I don't like covering my food up with saran wrap before putting it in the microwave. I’d rather just clean up the mess of my food exploding after I am done eating.

-When I drive I always stick out my lips. I have NO idea why I do this, I don't do it voluntarily.

-I pick my nose. It is not something to be ashamed of.

-I sleep with Pierre, my stuffed sea lion every night. I have an awkward sleep if I don't have him.

-I put my hand in my pants when I sleep. I do not have an explanation for this one either but I find it more comfortable for some reason.

-I never hang my coat up. I always just leave it on the back of a chair.

-I am sort of bad at introducing myself when in a group. I always just act like I know them until we've been hanging out with at least an hour and I'm like "I'm Chelsea by the way."

-I often get too full to finish the very last bite of my food.

-I shiver when I'm full. My brother calls it the "fake shake" because he thinks I fake it.

-My hands wander when I kiss someone.

-I bite my cuticles.

-I always do my wash then forget to put it in the dryer.

-I pick my teeth all the time.

-I stare at people's mouths when they talk instead of in their eyes but this is because my hearing sucks so I like to look at their mouth so I can better tell what they are saying.

-I instantly cry when those hurt animal commercials come on

-When I feel like I’m going to cry but don’t want to I roll my eyes up and make a pouting face and it seems to help.

-I sometimes have selective hearing, especially if I am writing or watching TV.

SIDE NOTE: right now my dog has her head rested on my keyboard and is reading my blog, so cute.

-I tend to have a new favourite song every week and it’s the only song I listen to for that week.

-I always forget my jewellery at other people’s houses.

-I always lose one sock in my bed or other people’s beds.

-I bite my straws.

-I lose house keys.

-I always sing songs that I don't know the words to and usually just mumble.

-I always throw my glasses in my purse without putting them in the case, getting them all scratched up.

-Whenever I take a bath I have to have a washcloth covering my stomach, I’m not sure why.

-I prefer eating with plastic utensils rather than silverware.

-I like to be touching my partner when sleeping, even if it’s just a leg or hand but I feel it annoys them so I wait till they fall asleep hahahaha

-I sleep with my mouth as wide open as can be most of the time.

-I would rather show up to something RIGHT on time than early.

-I sleep with one leg sticking out of my covers.

-When I'm cold at night, I tuck my pants into my socks.

-I clean my teeth using a sewing needle.

So, I needed a dress for some occasion that I can't remember. I found this dress at Value Village. It is made of velour. I bought it because it intrigued me but then I realize how rediculous it looked/felt. It remends me of a dress an Italian grandmother would wear. So, here I am cooking pasta sauce in my Italian Grandma dress.
