Random Facts of Uselessness #4

Good evening internet!

If you may or may not have noticed, I have COMPLETELY changed my blog's look. Not quite sure why, but I did. I may play around with it some more, but I definitely like the daisies and the cat picture gifs. Oh, and I officially have a love for cats.

In honor of my fetish, here are some random facts about cats.

• On average, a cat spends 2/3 of everyday sleeping. I wish I could spend half a day sleeping. But no, I actually have to have a life.
• A group of cats is called a clowder. I want a clowder of cats. Or two. Or three.
• A cat's brain is biologically more similar to a human's brain than a dog's because cats and humans have identical regions that control emotions. Interesting.
• Cats are North America's most popular pet. Enough Said.
• A cat rubs against people or objects to mark it as their territory. So basically my entire house belongs to my cat. Heh.

YAAAAY KITTIES!!!!!!!! I don't know why, but these made me so happy. :)

Thank you internet for giving me a place to express my love for cats. Oh, and for supplying me with a lifetime's supply of cat gifs.

Forever Alone on Valentine's day

Hello all you homo-sapiens out there! (Or whatever you are. I do not discriminate species. Aliens are always welcome :)

Today is Valentine's Day, and if you have been living under a rock for your entire life (or happen to be an alien), Valentine's Day is a day for the couples. Every year people express their love for one another through chocolate and flowers.

Unless you are like me. Forever alone. (Just kidding, I'm still young)

For everyone who does not have a significant other, it is just another day for guys (unless they have a crush on someone), and a day of wallowing in sadness watching their favorite love stories for the 50th time for the girls. Actually, I wouldn't know what Valentine's day is like for single guys. I'm not a guy.

Anyway, to brighten everyone's day, I found some hilarious #foreveralone pictures off the wonder that is the internet. You can thank me later.

Why Being Sick on a Snow Day Stinks

Hello world!

So today my school has another snow day. Which is great. I mean, I love a good snow day. I can sleep until noon, and sit around and be lazy all day. What's not to love?

Except I'm sick. Like I think I have strep sick. But, I can't be sure because I can't go to the doctor today because of the snow. My family only has one 4-wheel drive car, so that's what my dad took to work. The other car can't even get up my driveway! So, I have to wait until tomorrow to go see the doctor.

Which means I have no idea what's wrong with my throat, and I have no medication to soothe it. All I have is allergy medication which works for all of 5 minutes, citrus tea, and cough drops that taste like menthol. Have you ever had a menthol-flavored cough drop? Don't, they are nasty. Really, really nasty. Unfortunately, those are all the cough drops they have, and we can't go out and get more because we can't leave the house.

So basically I've been sitting on my butt all day, drinking tea, eating nasty cough drops, complaining about how my throat hurts, and watching Animal Planet. Because cute kittens and puppies always make life better.

I mean, look at that! I'm going to bop you on your head! BOP! Hehehehehe!!!!!! So cute!

I am actually thinking about taking advice from a cat and a dog and going to sleep. Because sleep is a beautiful thing.

Random Facts of Uselessness #3

Good evening everyone!

I am literally writing this at 11:37 at night because I am so bored and I feel like putting more thoughts from my brain down into code. So, here are my new random facts of uselessness, freshly plucked from my head.

Cause freshly plucked facts are the best.

• In the average lifetime, a person will walk the equivalent of 5 times around the equator. That's a ton of walking.
• When you die, your hair still grows for a couple of months. Nasty.
• 1 in 5,000 north Atlantic lobsters are born bright blue. Yum! Jk, I wouldn't eat a blue lobster. I'd keep it as a pet!

• You burn more calories sleeping than you do watching TV. So no mom, I'm not being lazy by sleeping all day. I'm working out more than you, who is sitting on the couch watching Food Network! (Another Jk, my mom doesn't watch TV all day unless she is sick.)
• Making your bed actually causes mold and mildew, which can trigger allergies, because you trap moisture in your bed. Basically I just gave you a scientific reason not to make your bed anymore. You're welcome.

And there's the list! I myself especially like the last one. I learned that at my allergist. Now guess who refuses to make their bed! Me!

Unless we have company over. That's the only exception.

Snow Day!

Hello everyone!

I know it's been forever since I posted. Sorry about that. I've been very busy. And lazy. And busy. But mostly lazy.

So today we were hit with a major snowstorm, so right now I don't have school. Thank goodness. I really don't want to have school right now. All I want to do is sleep.

Funny thing is, this morning I woke up at 5:30 to see that I got a text from my school saying school was canceled. So, I tried to go back to sleep because I could. Except that didn't happen. The snow/ice/sleet storm kept making weird noises outside my window that honestly sounded like there was a murderer in my closet. Then, I heard this really creepy noise that sounded like someone was sleeping next to me. What really freaked me out was that I once had this dream where I was sleeping and I looked over and there was a skeleton laying next to me. So, I thought for a second my nightmare was actually.

Needless to say I didn't go back to sleep.
