Message: <blockquote data-quote="DallasFanForever" data-source="post: 401344" data-attributes="member: 13221">For some reason heights have always bothered me from when I was little yet fairground rides don’t bother me very much. I can go on roller coasters with no problem but going up a ladder can be a challenge. I know this makes no sense. Planes don’t bother me much as far as the height goes. That’s more about the fear of crashing, which would really bother me. I would say the hot weather does bring them out more, especially the rain. I can’t say I blame you! Especially when you’re not used to seeing them regularly. Here these reptiles are so common that we’re all kind of used to it. Lol!! The realization from “the bright yellow toy” to it being a snake must’ve been jarring! I’m so used to seeing them but I still jump every time one crosses my path. Thank you my friend! It is a little odd though sometimes. I will be minding my own business and someone in a store or the mall will just start blabbering away to me about their day like we know each other. I’ll play along of course. You’d certainly love it here then! Here you would have a gallon of water with you everywhere you go instead of a bottle my friend. If I could somehow divide myself into 100 different pieces but still live there are days I would definitely consider it ‘Lashes. The pressure to be everywhere at once is unbelievable but you do get used to it. Eventually you realize there’s not much you can do other than your best and when you’re late, well, you’re late. I always have the excuses ready of course. I’ll blame traffic, the wildlife, the truck, dogs chasing me, getting stuck on Telly Talk, alien abduction, etc. You do have me curious now. Never thought of that but I guess anything is a possibility. The funny thing is I’m told I repeatedly have one of the highest survey scores every month yet I’ve never gotten a 5. I just want to get one 5. It’s all I ask. It’s become an obsession to me but kind of a running joke to everyone else now. My new nickname at work is “4.” I should change my username to “Four Forever” but I’m afraid no one will get it but you ‘Lashes. I can’t blame you. I wouldn’t want to go out there in the rain either. I know how seriously you take your gardening and how much you enjoy it. It must get frustrating when the weather doesn’t cooperate? I wish you could send me some of your rain too! It’s funny because every day the weather report is saying rain is in the forecast but for some reason it’s never getting here. Everyone’s lawn is now brown. Very odd for this time of year but I’m sure it will change soon as we get into June. Well, either that or we all boil. I’m really not sure which this year. It does help. It’s either that or jump into one of my customer’s pools before I get home, which more often than not I do contemplate. They say if you’re thirsty you’re already dehydrated, which is a scary thought to me. Hopefully you didn’t buy the sunhat for nothing. If it’s not a hot summer then at least you could wear it for protection from the rain maybe? I hope you’re having a nice week so far ‘Lashes and the same goes for everyone else reading this!</blockquote>
