15 Thoughts From a Third-Wheel

"Oh, it won't be awkward at all." Lies, I tell you.

Nov 03, 2015

There's always that one friend. I'm willing to bet all $3.67 left to my name that everyone has, at one point or another, been the dreaded third-wheel.

More often than not, it's awkward, uncomfortable, etc. Especially when the couple forgets there's another person in the vicinity.

As an experienced third-wheeler, I know my siblings, cousins, friends, unintentionally (or maybe intentionally) made the "silence" a little uneasy.

"OMG. You two are just the cutest."

"I want something like that! SO, where you at??"

"OK, it's getting a little awkward here."

"God. Do I want to even know what's going on up there??"

"It went from zero to painfully awkward real fast."

"Thanks for the friendly reminder I'm still single."

"You are not going to start crying."

"The first tears are escaping!!!"

"QUICK! Think cute animals!!"

"Um, guys, remember I'm still here."

"I think I'll get myself a tub of Ben and Jerry's."

"You need anything? Protection, maybe?"

"Three really is a crowd."

*Can you take a picture?* "That's cool...I guess." *Sure, be happy too!*

"I can't believe I thought this wouldn't be this weird."

What a time to be alive...right?

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
