Weird observations...
Have you ever had a memory from childhood, something you haven't thought about in years, come back when you least expect it, and have it be just like it happened yesterday? That happened to me in the shower the other day. I was reaching for my shampoo, when all of a sudden I remembered being about 4 or 5 years old, and deciding that I was going to "save" some hot water in an empty conditioner bottle for me to use the next night in the shower. Now, I don't know why I thought I could do this, or where the idea even came from, but hey, I was little. Well, the next night, I got in the shower, turned on the water, and poured the bottle of "hot" water into my hand. And wouldn't you know? It was ICE COLD. Ooh, I was so ANGRY! I was certain, as certain as my little 5-year-old mind could be, that one of my older sister had STOLEN my hot water and replaced it with this cold junk, just to be mean to me! So that night, I filled TWO bottles, and hid one, just sure that my ingenious plan would work. But of course, as I'm sure you've figured out, the next night BOTH bottles were cold, and I was so upset. I don't know how long it took me to realize that my sisters didn't CARE that I was trying to save hot water, neither of them had touched the bottles, that the bottles were losing heat because that's what they do, but I think I was mad at the two of them for at least a week. And this all came back to me, thankfully with a smile, as I was getting ready to wash my hair. The random things that come into my head sometimes... :)
