Habitual by Nature

I've come to realize that everything I do is because I've done it before. I'm a creature of habit. I do the same things over and over like a ritual. From the moment I wake up in the morning to when I go to sleep everything has to be the same. It HAS to.

This all dawned on me today as I was getting lunch from Kings Barbaqe (which I always do on Sundays around 12). I was thinking about what brings most people to restaurants to eat-the food, service, atmosphere ect. I realized I go to restaurants because of the food...and not just the food but what I eat there. I get the exact same thing to eat depending on which food joint I go to. It is a very rare occurrence that I will try something different.

And this lead me to think about all aspects of my existence. I don't change. My life is kinda like the movie Ground Hogs Day--at least when it comes to how I do things on a daily bases.

Some people thrive on the unknown in their life. They just let it come to them--they are not planers. They don't have ritualistic habits. And I can't figure out how this doesn't bother them or how they get anything done. I feel almost sick to my stomach thinking about it.

I don't suppose either way is a bad thing. People are different.

I take that back....everyone else not like me is strange!

Hehe
