Yep, Your Right It Is Dangerous

Lately I have had a lot of free time. As stated in a previous post, I have not been able to fill this abundance of time with blogging. My days consist of waking up early, eating breakfast, going to the gym, eating lunch, watching TV programmes, eating dinner. In between these enthralling activities I have a lot of time to think. As I admit in the title, me with a) a cohesively functioning brain or b) lots of time to think, isn't correlated with good things. Today however I am blogging about what other people think of me and how I've thought about that. Complex and weird right? Wrong. Really simple when you give it some thought. Well if you had this much time on your hands with no money and no job and no social life and hardly anyone your own age to talk to apart from the gym for 2 hours a day four days a week you wouldn't think so either. 

Either way recently a good friend of mine gave me a list of 5 things that were the best part about me. They didn't have to be the best things about me that everyone would agree with, or the best qualities I'd ever shown as a friend. They were just the best things that sprung to mind, and therefore the best things about me my friend enjoys. They don't always make me the best housemate or friend, but they sure as hell make for a good laugh and a good bond between friends. The list in the order it was given goes as follows:

1. Always say the wrong thing.
2. Top cook. Especially Mexican and thanksgiving.
3. Smash people on an American football field.
4. Do maths
5. Take massive smelly shits daily.

Point number one is a given. My insatiable ability to always say the wrong thing is uncanny. It can only be appreciated if you've known me for a while. Most of the time i don't mean it to sound like it does. If your on the right side of it its often hilariously painful, if your not then you usually will hate me for at least a tiny bit.

Numero... two. Photos above show thanksgiving turkey and Mexican food. Notably my second favourite Mexican food H-Enchiladas with Peri Peri wedges and veg. If you've tasted my cooking you'll agree I'm not just bragging. I'm damn good and proud of it too. My cooking being appreciated is the most proud point for me on that list.

Number 3 is cool. I do like contact. It's what makes me miss playing so much more excruciating during summer months. Leading from the front is a big thing for me, and you've gotta light people up to show everyone else it can be done.

The fourth one. Hmmm now my ability to do maths would make you guys think I was really clever. Not so, I used to be too good for the level. But oh boy did I get taken down a peg, it started in college (but I got my A) and ended after my first year almost failure in uni. I can count, and I can do mental maths but it is way to hard and intricate at a university level. I can do maths, but I'm fairly simple. The fact that its one of my best parts in this person's eyes only sheds light on their own mathletic ability.

Five. The strange one, the odd one, the final point. This is the one that ends the list with a touch of humour. Its the one that makes me an awful and predictable housemate for 20 minutes a day. I can't deny it but this ability did help spread the word of toilet tweeting. Hence the appreciation, and simply because the smell is often unbelievable. Like clockwork.

After having thought about the list, and pondered whether to even bother writing a blog about it I've decided I may as well. Not like I have anything better to do. Its an insight into the silly world I live in in aber and what people do think about me in a good way. To go back to the title though, thinking is dangerous. It can lead to long winded blog posts about basically nothing. But who cares, I've enjoyed. Maybe you'll be on the end of me saying the wrong thing one day as I know there will be many more victims. Or like Benjamin Watkins will soon experience, the ability that was number five on the list. Your days are numbered boy. We never forget.
