Change
It's interesting what you don't really know about yourself until your friends tell you...
I really don't like change. I'm not sure why, but if it happens and I'm not a part of it, I just don't know what to do with myself. Take for instance: my living room.
Over the weekend, Dan, Micah, Michelle, and Laura (Micah's sisters) rearranged our living room. I came home Sunday afternoon, and was appalled. I didn't know what to do with myself. I seriously was so upset that I almost spent a significant amount of time turning it back to the way it used to be. I took every opportunity I could to tell everyone that I did not like it. I did not want anyone to think that I supported this rapid change without my input. I believe that I may have used many expletives in my attempts to be explicative about my feelings regarding this issue.
But, everyone sort of laughed at me and said, "Yeah, I knew you wouldn't like it. You don't do well with change."
What?!? Me, not do well with change? I was shocked, horrified, they couldn't be right! Well...maybe they could be.
I must confess: I am no good with change. I get genuinely upset when they stop making my favorite lipstick…I’m just that way.
And, I must go on record to note that after a few days…I have decided that I do like the living room. I am sorry I ever doubted the talent and expertise that went into making it a reality.

I don't like the new living room either. I enjoy change but I am always attempting to maximize space usage and the new arrangement doesn''t do that. sorry dan, it just doesn't.
