Mine is mostly an every day thing like “Since I live on the 3rd floor and have to walk up these stairs ALL the time, I can have a ginormous bowl of ice cream tonight.”

And this is why my pants don’t fit.

I do those types of things all the times. And I also treat my inner child and give her treats for paying her phone bill on time and stupid things like that…OR MAYBE its just my adult wanting an excuse to have an icecream cone?

I don’t think you’re weird!

I’m sure this all can be traced back to the light being off in the Kelly’s Dinette sign on the evening of Jan 11, 1978.

(guess this will require an explanation to your loyal readers)

Of course! I totally forgot that I was NAMED because of a decision like that! If the Kelly’s Dinette sign was on, then Dad won the bet, and I would have been named Kelly. But it was OFF, and I was named {Noelle.} I’m still so glad you won that one, Mom!

I think that is a great way to make unimportant decisions. At least you’re not stressing out over them!

I’d prefer to stress over other things. True that.

I have been doing the same thing for the past couple years. I’m the same way – can make the big decisions, but the petty stuff is a crisis.

E.g. if there is a close parking space, I’ll go into the store/restaurant/coffee joint. Otherwise it’s not meant to be.

I’ve done something similar to the parking spot thing. Like, if there’s a spot in front of the deli, I’ll go there for lunch. If not, I’ll go to the grocery store.

I’m totally in the process of doing that now. I bought something that was too expensive for me on Ebay, and then decided I should resell it since I didn’t need to spend the money…so I listed it, but then thought I still wanted it so took it off…

Then I was contacted by one of the people who was watching it on Ebay, asking if I was relisting it because she was really interested…I told her no because I decided to keep it.

But then thought better of it again, and emailed her a week or two later to see if she was still interested-thinking…I won’t relist it, but if THIS person still wants it, I’ll sell it.

She is trying to get the money together and is indeed still interested, so I’m still in the “if she gets back to me, I’ll sell it” if not, I will keep it.

Very convoluted story I know…but it’s how it is here in my little brain…

Cute!

I totally do that. It’s nice to have some sort of interesting way to make decisions, I guess. The worst, though, is when my choice is conditioned on someone calling, or some other thing where I don’t know when it will happen. Now I try to keep parameters on things like that, for my own sanity!

Yeah, sometimes I cheat and kind of base my decisions on things I know will turn out a certain way… And I don’t always hold myself up to my end of the bargain…

Not weird; there are so many things we must make decisions on I think that we get tired of having to make them, this is you conserving energy. I like it.

I wish it would help me be less tired, but alas.
