I had a moment that made me feel like a slightly grown up person this weekend.  For those not in America, this past Thursday was Thanksgiving, with the traditional Christmas shopping day on the following Friday.  The thing that happened this year that I had never experienced before was a feeling of gloom and maybe a type of depression regarding shopping around this time.  The fact that stores were opening on Thursday in order to entice people to go shopping on a holiday was extremely disheartening to me.  It might have had something to do with how I was also miserably sick at the time, but the whole experience was fairly new to me since I'm typically a socially apathetic person.  Maybe I'll start having more of my own opinions about stuff like this.  Won't that be fun to hear about?

Picking up from where I left off, another slightly odd thing that I was only recently aware of about me and my brain is that, as far as I can tell, I don't miss people or things when they aren't around.  In grade school, I was never the one to ask if any of my friends wanted to play or hang out, I always waited for them to contact me.  That's not to say I didn't enjoy being around my friends, I was just never compelled to be the one to ask.  I'm still like that now to an extent.  When either I or my wonderful girlfriend went out of the country over the last two summers, any communication we had over Skype or whatever was initiated by her 95% of the time.  Again, not because I didn't want to talk to her, but just because it takes a lot for me to actually reach out to anyone else, especially regarding conversation.

Sometimes I wonder if there is something very different about my brain just based on the things that go on in my head.  For example, whenever I'm traveling from point A to point B, whether that be a 3 hour drive or a 5 minute walk, I always imagine myself in some sort of fantastical situation.  I wouldn't think too much of it except that I'm the only person I know of who does this.  Typically I don't actually act out any of the stuff I imagine, but my friends are all pretty familiar with my tendencies of swinging imaginary swords around or shooting imaginary guns at imaginary space robot aliens, or whatever.  Even when I'm not physically acting anything out, I'll still tense up as though I'm preparing for something or I'll pretend that wherever I am is completely abandoned.  Anything to make that transitional period more interesting.

I have this idea for a mobile phone that is built into a glove where the number pad is laid out on the digits of the wearer's fingers so that the index finger contains 1, 2, and 3, and so on.  The thumb would be used to dial the numbers.  It could even have a modular design where people could add features like an LCD screen or a webcam for Skype or whatever other video calling service.  Because of this, the base unit could be sold relatively cheaply.
