Rejected status

I think of a new facebook status every ten minutes. I wonder what it would look like if I collected the rejects. I am going to make it a goal to write down the ones I disregard.

"ugghhh"

"My lips taste like mint tea"

"I'm relating too much to Julie/Julia"

Nothing I write is profound and I know this. Some people write profound things and they know it's profound. If I think of a profound thing to write, it's a quote. It's a lyric. It's corny, if it's original. It's disingenuous. Some moments are profound, I prefer them to go by without a word.

"My toes are cold"
