From a FB meme

36 things I've come to realize
Rules: Blah blah blah near chainletter bs blah.

1. I've come to realize that my...skin gets blotchy in the sun now. Yay aging! Thanks for that, very nice.
2. I've come to realize that my job...is what I always wanted to do, just in a different way.
3. I've come to realize that when I'm driving ...I’m dreaming. No license yet in the waking hours. And normally, when I’m dreaming, it’s a train or some kind of space craft.
4. I've come to realize that I need ...to move about more, to speak less, to listen more attentively, and to learn to walk in heels.
5. I've come to realize that I have lost ...my denim hat, the one that sunk in the rapids when I fell of a cliff that second time. It’s pretty much gone.
6. I've come to realize that I hate it when ...I'm late for anything.
7. I've come to realize that if I'm drunk ...I’m much, much, much better looking and so are you.
8. I've come to realize that money ...cannot buy happiness, but sometimes is an effective salve in alleviating pain.
9. I've come to realize that certain people ...will remain beyond my comprehension. Just gotta accept them the way they are.
10. I've come to realize that I'll always ...crave more sugar than I should have.
11. I've come to realize that my sibling(s) ...are a pretty freaking diverse group of people who I’m fortunate to know.
12. I've come to realize that my mom ...taught me more than I appreciated earlier on.
13. I've come to realize that my cell phone ...should really go to a recycling bin. Hasn’t been on in 11 years. Why do I still have it? And why did I put so many frog stickers on it?
14. I've come to realize that when I woke up this morning...I was glad to have written a to-do list in sharpie on my arm the night before, but would have remembered the stuff anyway. And later I realized that a kitchen scruby gets off sharpie marker pretty good.
15. I've come to realize that last night before I went to sleep...my cat’s breath smells like cat food.
16. I've come to realize that right now I am thinking...I should be working.
17. I've come to realize that my dad...is a bloody funny person.
18. I've come to realize that when I get on Facebook...no one really looks like their profile photo.
19. I've come to realize that today...going back to the same yard sale latter will get you free stuff. Tin box. Top that, eh?
20. I've come to realize that tonight...I shouldn't pick movies based on scant knowledge of the books I think they might have been based on.
21. I've come to realize that tomorrow...has nothing booked yet and may be the day to go from three to one desks in my office. God how I wish that were code.
22. I've come to realize that I really want to...get published again.
23. I've come to realize that the person who is most likely to repost this is...is that something you can realize? I don’t think so. Nope.
24. I've come to realize that life...is precious and complex with notes of chocolate, blueberry and smoke, and gets better as it ages.
25. I've come to realize that this weekend...was the first time I’d introduced a young boy to pet worms. Yay bug fun!
26. I've realized the best music to listen to when I am upset...has a consistent and calming pulse and flow, and that I try to use it to reset my brain.
27. I've come to realize that my friends...are perhaps the most patient people on the planet. Totally unintentional alliteration there.
28. I've come to realize that this year...is the last of the years to have two zero’s in the middle of it. Starting next year we’ll have a zero at the end and a one in the middle. Freaky. Was still dealing with it being not the 90’s, and the aughts will have gone.
29. I've come to realize that my ex...might be dead.
30. I've come to realize that maybe I should...write every day.
31. I've come to realize that I love...excellent wine.
32. I've come to realize that I don't understand...technical manuals. Which is unfortunate considering my career path.
33. I've come to realize my past...has so many black holes in it due to bad wine.
34. I've come to realize that parties...are things I should stay sober for.
35. I've come to realize that I'm totally terrified...of stuff I’m not telling you. Why would anyone put that online? It’s like tempting the fates.
36. I've come to realize that my life...is not perfect, but it’s pretty blessed and it might be perfect for me.
