NaBloPoMo #10 – Oh blank…. Tuesday, Nov 10 2009 

nablo1109.120x200I was going to write a list of the things that completely freak me out. The number one thing is some kind of bug thing that I don’t even know the name of. When I describe it, people say, “Silverfish?” but no, not silverfish. This this is like a two-inch ball of lint that undulates across the floor. There is pretty much nothing that makes my viscera retract uncomfortably into my skeleton like these things. Occasionally this pops up because I really hate seeing them, they are alien to me in a way no other critter is.

Ok, so pretty short list.

Here’s another thing: do you ever get words, names, or phrases stuck in your head? It’s usually something unusual or strange. Yesterday, I kept thinking of Fond du Lac which is a town in Wisconsin. I rolled the name around in my head all day and I can’t remember where I heard it.  I expect it will come back around today now that I’ve written this post. I wonder if there’s a name for this phenomenon, thinking of words or phrases over and over.

This post-a-day thing is difficult. I endeavor to provide more substantial and meaningful content in the days coming.

NaBloPoMo #5 – A random collection of mental flotsam Friday, Nov 6 2009 

1. I’m pretty sure that irregular yet persistent banging from the neighbors is sorority girl gettin some. Ew. Fine. But please hurry up so I can go to sleep. Soon. Please.

2. Dang it’s dark early.

3. I find that talking stomach Fazoli’s ad extremely disturbing. Even more so because I’ve never heard it, only seen it over peoples’ shoulders at the gym.

4. Please keep the TV shows I like on the air. I can’t tell you which ones they are because I will kill them with my love.

5. If a woman in your water aerobics class is telling another woman in your water aerobics class that she has a ton of business suits she’d like to get rid of, do not blurt out “I NEED SUITS!” because she will give them to you without letting you try on the pants parts of the suits, only the tops. You will get home and wish you’d been more insistent  because now you sort of look like a middle-aged banker from New England…

6. Black and brown do too go together.

7. I love the iPhone app Awesome Notes. It’s expensive for an app but worth it.

8. Moreena Baccarin is HAWT with short hair.
