Do you like your own personality? Maybe you talk too much. Remember the time you stopped talking? Me neither. Uh-oh. I talk too much. I’m socially awkward. Heck, I’m never sure if I’m socially awkward or the person I’m talking to is. Someone just called me normal. I have never been so insulted in my life.

I get to the end and I think, “Well, that’s not going to happen.” Speaking of which… The secret to a clean kitchen? Don’t cook – ever. When I learned how to cook, I forgot how to clean.
