Things I do too often...

Saying "Do you know what i mean?" Though, there is a logical reason behind saying it as often as I do. First of all, people don't always understand, and that blank look they get when they're trying to figure out what to say to make you think they understood bugs me, so I ask them if they understand. It simplifies things. Second, when people just stare at me, even if the do understand what I'm saying, it drives me nuts. Why aren't they responding to me???? So I ask them to get them to say SOMETHING, even if the common response is just "Yeah."

I quote TV shows and movies ALL THE TIME. In person, on facebook, on twitter, in e-mails, in texts.... I like quotes, and I can apply one to almost any situation. Sometimes I keep it inside because, well, who needs someone applying a quote to EVERYTHING? I hope that doesn't bug people too much when I do it.....

I read fanfiction on my phone. It is seriously ridiculous. I spend way too much time doing it. I should stop....but I probably wont. Eh, I still read other stuff and I still have a life, so it's okay right? Right?

Check the doors. I check doors to see if they're locked. All the time, over and over and over and over and over and over and....okay, you get it. All doors though, not just the front door to my house. No, the sliding door too, and the bathroom door, and the bedroom door(when we sleep with it shut).

Sing at the top of my lungs with the music blasting at a red light, with no regard for anyone around me. I probably annoy the crap out of people....

Ask "Do you care what bills?" Also, saying "Have a nice day."

Watch Friends. I mean I love it, and it's entertaining, and I'm not hurting anyone. But I watch it every day, that's a lot.

Randomly break out into song, sometimes they're songs of my own creation.

Tweet. Oh my gosh do I tweet too much. The ability to tweet from text has made it worse. Haha.

And last, I talk with my hands. This one, I was not aware of, I know I do it sometimes, but my sister is the one who told me that I do it a lot. :)

The Piano


The bench is soft but strong as you take your place

The keys cool, hard and unyielding under your hands

You take a deep breath and begin

The music wraps around you, comforting you

Letting you know its okay to let go

Everything you feel flows through your body,

Through your arms and your hands

Every fear, every heartbreak, every tear shed

Every hurtful word thrown at you,

Your frustration, your anger

And every unfulfilled dream

They twist and wind, blending with the music

Creating a haunting and beautiful song

Filled with everything you have ever felt

It fills the room, overwhelming in its intensity,

Flowing freely, weaving intricately

Bulding and building

Threatening to consume all around

Until at last the final note sounds

It dissipates

Leaving nothing but tears in your eyes

Trembling hands

And hope in your heart and soul
