Defined

Had a convo with FF about my previous posting on this hazy and lazy as a daisy Thursday afternoon. And to think people are still smoking their lungs away. Boo-boo to them. *chuckles*

f a y says: but i think a lot

f a y says: i think about things i want to do ..

f a y says: does that make me an idealist then?

Perfectly Flawed says: i think too much. an idealist is someone who dreams, the impossible.

Pertaining to it, I decided to define both terms for easier decision making. I am so an Idealist. It's confirmed.
