Embrace the crazy. I have.

There are a few things that I thought were Global Rules, but apparently some people are just living wrong. Please allow me to clarify so that WE CAN ALL LIVE RIGHT:

1. It's not "taking care of your crayons" if you don't store them in ascending rainbow order in the box.

Correct:



Incorrect:




2. The dirty dishes look better if they're organized in the sink while waiting on the dishes in the dishwasher to finish running so they can be loaded. Like so:

 

3. When you know you're about to meet someone for the first time, don't wear something completely out of character for you. I say this because I own one -- ONE -- shirt from Chico's that sort of looks like it's a leopard print, but it's not. It looks a lot like this one, but instead of blue, it's just a black and brown print:

But last week I met someone at work for the first time, and I was totally self-conscious because I stood there thinking, "She thinks I'm an animal-print person. She thinks I'm an animal-print person," the whole time. There's nothing WRONG with animal prints, but I just don't ever wear them and I obsessed over that first impression for the rest of the day.

I know. I don't make sense.
