Much too entertained

[wispfox]

And for no apparent reason. Makes it very *very* difficult to concentrate on testing!


My default random names are Fred and George.
I think this is my oldest brother's fault.


I had a bit of time to chat with my oldest brother for what feels like the first time since he got married over 10 years ago, a week ago when he came to see my apartment. It was weird. But neat. My mom calls us the twins (although we're about ten years apart). I kinda missed being able to chat with him.


I saw my younger brother for the first time in probably two years the day before. That was odd, as well. Still haven't adjusted to having my younger brother significantly taller and larger than I. I wonder if I ever will?


I find it highly entertaining that one of my co-workers, who doesn't mind spiders (and likes their webs) except when they are really close to him, keeps finding them *on* him at work. I *like* spiders; they should come visit *me*!


I want a snake. I've wanted to own a snake since I was very young. Apparently when I was about 6, my family was at some sort of a reptile show, and I got to hold the python. Which was much bigger than I was. So I started to fall over. The visual of this entertains me, but I do not remember it. I wish I did!

But I have a cat. And I'm not home frequently enough for him. I'm not sure I'd have time for both a cat *and* a snake. Maybe the next time I'm looking to own a pet?


I like cats. I've always had cats, growing up, and since I moved out of my parents' house, when I could. Maybe I need some sort of cat-snake?


I want to be a bird. I saw birds flying crazy on my walk today. This was highly amusing, but I wanted to be one. And I wondered if someone who doesn't like roller coasters would enjoy being a bird? Or, at least the kind of bird we were watching...


Baitcon is this weekend. Yay! Much yay! I'm hoping having been highly anti-social this past weekend will mean I'll not need to spend random time alone *this* weekend. Even though I know I *could* wander off (and probably will, to explore), I don't want to *have* to wander off.


My bathroom, pantry, and kitchen are clean. I even washed the floors. I finally got around to starting my spring cleaning. Yay, clean floors! Now, I need to vacuum my office and bedroom.


I'm highly amused by the fact that, while wearing one of my more cryptic shirts, I had a child effectively grab my breasts in order to read my shirt better. I was quite startled, but figured it could not *possibly* be what it looked like. Remembering this continues to amuse me greatly.


My boss went to Motorcycle week in Laconia this past weekend. He was wearing a baseball cap when I went over to talk to him earlier. Apparently he forgot to bring sunscreen, and has a very strange burn pattern. Thus, the hat.

I grew up in Laconia, and know about Motorcycle week. But, I never actually *went* to anything. Partly because it was difficult to get there. Partly because I didn't start to want to until my last year or two at home. Partly because I didn't know anyone to tag along with. I'm still not sure if I would have wanted to go. I was *certainly* not yet comfortable enough with myself that I'd quite have known what to do with myself had I ever gone.


'nough randomness. Must work now. Hopefully I'll manage to not be *completely* distractable. I've been like this for a few days now. I wonder why? Maybe the fact that there's *sun*?

Me, tooo! When someone asks if I want to be called serene or Sandra, I usually say, "George, Fred, whatever."

Hee! That's pretty random, I must say. Any idea how you ended up with those defaults?

I have no idea, though when I read your question, it crossed my mind that I may have picked it up from a movie. I get a lot of my idioms that way. I've been saying that since I was in my teens, though, and don't remember why.
