I'm a nerd, and...
...I've decided I need rational explanations for just about everything. That's maybe my hidden West coming through.
For example, I was at Magnolia with Jaymie, Linda, Ysabelle, and Jamie, when I noticed they were no longer putting sprouts in the salad. But I didn't just make note of this and move on--Jaymie and I then wondered aloud whether sprouts were just out of season and, furthermore, if sprouts even had seasons...or if they had just changed the composition of the salad.
For better example, I accidentally wrote "dollars" in the spelled-out numbers portion of my check (ex: twenty-three dollars and 40/100) when I remembered that "dollars" is written out at the end of the line, thereby changing the amount to twenty-three dollars and 40/100 dollars. I had to justify to myself that the amount still made grammatical sense (i.e. it's twenty-three dollars as well as 40/100 dollars) before I was happy with having written that.
Also, I'm kind of dumb.
