Five Minute Friday: RUN

This post is part of the weekly Five Minute Friday series. Five minutes of free-flow writing shared with whoever wants to read it. This week’s prompt is: RUN.  

______GO

Sometimes it's like I can't turn my brain off.  And by sometimes, I mean all the time.  My thoughts are constant.  I don't even notice how intense it is until I am attempting some 'me' time.  Massages are the worst.  {But also the best}

I'll catch myself in the middle of a thought tangent, with no clue how I got there, and get frustrated that I have wasted a portion of my relaxation time thinking about how monkeys would look if they didn't have hair. 

Sometimes, I will have entire conversations in my head and then blurt out the final sentence and leave my husband scratching his head as to why I don't understand that he doesn't understand what I'm saying.  However, after 12+ years, he can typically guess what I'm talking about, even from a short sentence.  

A game I like to play with myself is 'where did this come from', sort of like a backwards math equation.

Example:

We're driving down the road and I see a billboard for the zoo.  

We should take the kids to the zoo next weekend.  

We can't this weekend, because I have to work.

I should put a meal in the crockpot since I have to work.

We have a ton of tortillas because I forgot they were on the list and added them again, after we bought some last week.

I should make enchilada soup with all the tortillas, but it's too hot today.  I'll put it on the list for this week.

We also have a lot of potatoes, I want potato soup.  But it's too hot. 

I can't believe it's already 90 in April.  We should go to the pool soon. 
It's open now.

So is Frosti Cone, we should get a snow cone. 

There's a new food truck next to Frosti Cone that sounded good.  I think it has different kinds of tacos.  Chicken, beef, shrimp, and goat.

"How about Goat Tacos?!"

Poor Jeff.
