Things you would never admit to IRL because they'd think you were weird!

This is a topic that's been going round in my head lately as a thought popped into my mind a few weeks back and is becoming the itch that can't be scratched!

As I was driving home one day, I saw a random lorry with a place name on the side that I didn't recognise, and I thought "I wonder where I'd end up if I just followed that lorry?"

This has now become a regular topic of thought, wondering how long I'd drive for before I gave up following someone and just went home. Or wondering if they might see me driving behind them and realise I'm following them (that would be an awkward convo with the police - "why are you following that vehicle", "Well, officer, I was a bit bored and just wondered where they were going and thought I'd tag along"!)

In my head I've even gone so far as to thinking that if I were single it could be a nice day out! Pack an overnight bag, hop on the motorway and choose a vehicle to follow to see where I end up. Eventually give up and find a hotel for the night (or give myself enough time to drive home again if I couldn't find anything).

So... I realise I am weird for thinking this, but MN is a "safe space" where we can all admit our oddities without being outed, so what are yours?!

I get very concerned about insects on public transport. If a wasp flies into the carriage at Morden (where he lives), what if he ends up at High Barnet? He'll just be stuck there for ever, not knowing any other wasps. And he won't know that he has to get on the other platform to get home again!

I spend far too long thinking about this.

I think that too. I had a snail on the windscreen of my car once. I stopped after about 2 miles and put him in a bush. I hope he found some friends.

I hope so, too. But what if he has a local accent and is shunned? What if he was from the posh side of town and then they put gravy on his chips for him and he doesn't like it??? It's all too much.
