Detritus

Detritus is waste  I like how this word sounds and is spelled.  I find it an attractive word for a not so attractive subject.  I don't know if you know this or if I have written about this before, but I am very adaptable.  In fact, I think that I will acclimate too much sometimes to my environment.  My personal space, the space that I keep my own is colorful and messy.  I have sat on my messy bed with too many pillows and covers.  I still have my queen sized bed so I find that I fill the place that I don't sleep on with books and sweaters, weird strange things I tend to lose and then end up looking for.  I have to ask myself, why do I like this environment?  

There was a study done in Minnesota regarding intelligence linked to night owls, people who curse and messiness.  I suppose that I like the potential of organization.  It is almost like a puzzle.  My favorite part of a puzzle is being stymied.  There is a point where I have an idea of where the next couple of steps are coming and I know that I have solved it and the rest becomes tedious.  I like things with color and rhinestones.  My favorite thing is costume jewelry and hair jewelry.  I love nothing more than to buy clips with pretty colors and plenty of fake stones.  I dye my hair crazy colors and I throw stuff up there willy nilly feeling like a cheap version of a queen.  On my bookshelf, I have little figurines that I have been given and colorful things that I keep about.  I have little piles of clothes that I don't tend to wear around my colorful room despite its white walls.  There are purses and shoes everywhere.  In my bathroom, there is make up, plenty of eyeshadows and blushes.  I like seeing it all messy.  I can see more of what is there.  

I am getting rid of stuff: Less stuff more space.  I like this look.  I don't like to have things that won't contribute to the messy look I like.  I suppose that to me, messy indicates lived in.  I organize them in my mind.  However, you should also know that I have an all or nothing type personality where it is going to be perfect or I don't care.  I'm trying to figure out how this works into my own personal style.  I don't think that this is a good attitude and perfection is far from me so I don't know why I stress so much over perfect when good is good enough.  

There is more that I could say about everything but I just can't write anymore.  Have a great week and Praise the Lord!
