This is the stuff that keeps me up at Night

Sometimes (maybe nightly...) I have trouble falling asleep because my mind just keeps on running with ideas, and is won't shut the ef up. Here are some of my recent ponderations:

The indecisiveness of Illinois Springtime temperatures made me wonder, "Why do we have to set our air conditioners to 'heat' and 'cool'?" In my grandpa's car, you can just set it to 70 degrees, and it adjusts the temperature to be warmer or colder until it reaches 70 degrees. Why can't we do that in a house? Maybe there's some mechanical reason why not, but I don't want to have to change my thermostat every day (or twice a day).

"It's been a while since I caught quarters off my elbow. Maybe I'll try that tomorrow."

"Did I feed Sally? Is that why she's meowing? She'll live until morning..... Wow, I'm a jerk to my poor cat. Plus, she will meow all night so I'll make sure she has food."

"There must be a machine that peels mandarin oranges. How does it get them so clean?"

"What would I look like bald? Will I ever know the answer to this question?"

"Is there a shoe store where amputees can buy just a left or right shoe? They shouldn't have to pay full price to use half the product."
