Apathy

I'm not writing/posting like I should, because I have too many thoughts in my head and not enough patience to write them down.  Or, maybe I have NO real thoughts in my head, which is why I can't sit down to write anything.  Either way, I'm slacking.

So here are some random thoughts which have been brewing in my head recently:

• I currently have hives covering my whole body.  What caused them?  Probably spraying pesticides at my house.  What exacerbated them?  Probably stress and anxiety.  (Google it - it's a thing...)
• I watched Wild the other day (Reese Witherspoon, etc) and I should go hike the Pacific Coast Trail, even though I would most likely drop dead somewhere along the trail.
• I also watched Interstellar, and the future looks pretty fucking bleak, so I'm not holding out for something better anytime soon.  
• Just read the paper on any given day and watch that axiom happening.
• My husband is literally killing me with his passive-aggressiveness (and his face, in general), so when I die, someone acknowledge that it was a murder of sorts via dangerously high blood pressure, anxiety, depression, and/or actual poison (who knows?).
• I need to read more.
• I need to make some friends, because I hear they help a person from becoming wildly insane and deeply depressed.  (I'm going to actually leave my house periodically to be social in order for this one to happen, which is unlikely.)
• Social functions (even when I really like the people involved) cause me stress.  Why?  Small talk, I think.  If all my favorite topics (religion, politics, social issues) are off the table because of "political correctness", I literally have nothing to talk about.  
• The Fourth of July is yet another in the line of consumer-driven holidays which piss me off, because I am expected to spend money for my children to (literally) light on fire.
• I am very sad that more people than ever take photographs of events in their lives, but no one prints them out anymore.  I really love having physical photos of people I love and events which were fun - preferably hanging on my walls.  
• Sidenote:  social media is going to be the downfall of this upcoming generation, if they're not careful.  Vine, specifically, is a 6-second ride through hell.  
• I  have recently learned NEVER to buy bottled water, because they end up EVERYwhere in my house,, and no one thinks to recycle.  
• Watership Down might be the WORST summer reading choice for incoming freshmen English students that I've ever experienced.  Why are we trying to make young people hate reading?!
• Summer + Road Work = Road Rage.
• Summer + Tiki torches & wine = Peacefulness.
• Oh, and rain storms are the best of nature.  Next time, I might go outside and take a shower in one - shampoo and all.
