Skittles

I'm supposed to be working on my PAEMST paper right now.  It's mostly done, I just need to tweak it.  Instead,  I've cleaned my room, finished the laundry, and now I'm blogging...about Skittles.

I like Skittles, they're one of my favorite candies.  I find it interesting that everyone has a different favorite or combination of favorite Skittles.  Mine are the red and green.  Purple is ok, but yellow and orange are just in the mix.  I like to balance out my flavors.  I pay attention to which color I'm eating and try to space all the flavors out so I don't get bored of one before the rest.  I make sure that my last Skittle eaten is red so I have a favorite flavor left in my mouth.

There really is more on my mind than just Skittles, although I did just buy a 1 lb. bag of them when I ran to the store today (they were on sale...and I wanted them).  I got a phone call today that was unexpected.  It wasn't the topic of the call that bothered me, it was the tone of voice from the person on the other side. I feel like I know this person fairly well and so I have a pretty good idea of what this person was feeling at the time, but I couldn't say or do anything about it.  At the same time, I'm trying not to assume anything because I've been burned by others making assumptions about me so I try not to repeat the offense.
