Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

Awkward:
- When you're stopped at a red light and rocking out to the Florida Georgia Line song in your car and look over to see a confused man looking at you. Excuse me, didn't your mama teach you not to stare? That's rude.
-Everything about swollen lymph nodes.
- You happen to go to the park and your little 4 year-old cousin is adamant that you swing with him so you get in the swing only to turn around and find a group of kindergardeners wondering what the heck an adult is doing in their swing. And then you spend the rest of the afternoon wearing the shameful "Yeah- I- just- deprived- children- the- joy- of- swinging- in- their- child-sized- swing" look.
-When you meet people and you say
     "Hi, I'm Kelsey"
     "Nice to meet you Chelsea"
   Two weeks later:
      "Good to see you Chelsea!"
Seriously happens more often than not.
    Oy.
- When you wear a skirt to work and look down to discover you haven't shaved your legs in who knows how long. I'm in college people, I don't have time for that nonsense.


Awesome:
- You can't get your 21 month-old cousin to stop crying so you turn on your iPod as a last resort and he curls up against your chest and falls asleep. Baby sweetness.
- Up to your eyeballs in college work and your 4 year-old cousin comes in asking if you can read him a book. Okay, I'd much rather read about the latest endeavor of the Berenstain Bears than about nihilism. Picture books are where it's at anyway.
-Pumpkin pancakes for dinner. And then again at midnight :)
-When your daddy fills your car up with gas AND washes it.
- L.A. Marathon and all it's glory.
- Getting to bed before 11:30. Seriously- that just happened.
-Wearing shorts after being confined to pants for 4 solid months. My legs can breathe. Now, I just need to be a lady and shave. Yikes.
