Maybe you have already noticed these things, but maybe not...
There are fire hydrants EVERYWHERE. literally. start paying attention. There is a fire hydrant like every 100 yards. There are over 30,000 of them in Columbus. 30 THOUSAND.
Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful. But can you imagine what life was like for the employees who put in all 30 thousand of those babies? Nuts. just nuts.
Also have you noticed how streets which used to be black top are now white gray top now that it is cold. And I mean not the snow making it white..but the ground is white. I guess it is the salt. But like why? how? Salt chunks on top of black top make white gray top?
Okay and then what about grocery store shenanigans like how they display APPLES. so Christopher likes gala apples which is nice because they are usually cheaper than some other apple guys. Well the gala apples were next to some apples with a made up name that were much more than the gala apples. Well i accidentally got one of those dudes and paid more than i should have for my 3 lbs of apples. I call BS.
And what about some other weird things in grocery stores. Where the hell is the velveeta? The pepperoni? The summer sausage? Like for real where do they hide all of this shit?
And lastly, since I am currently planning a wedding, have you ever noticed the entire INDUSTRY that is built around people saying "i do". It is nutso. I am often struck with the fact that Christopher and I's life will not really change after we say "we do". We already live together, we already know we love each other and we already live our lives together. While I love that those things are true, and I know I want to get married, why is an industry built around a few hours of celebrating the signage of a document? legally binding and life long as it may be, my romantic side is getting taken over by my cynicism I guess. I can explain the romance and beauty of a wedding to you, yet am still taken a back by the HUGE billion dollar industry weddings are.
Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful. But can you imagine what life was like for the employees who put in all 30 thousand of those babies? Nuts. just nuts.
