Thursday Thoughts

Thoughts lately revolve around movie soundtracks... like the score, not the compilation of songs that characters listen to while driving.

1) If my life were set to a movie soundtrack I would want it to be the one from Backdraft. Because my life is about fire and percussion.

2) Another alternative would be Last of the Mohicans, because I do occasionally kiss outdoorsy types.

3) Last one up for discussion is Beetlejuice. It's just kinda indicative of the interior of my head.

Thoughts lately:

1) If you tell someone there's a grammatical error in something when there's actually not, they'll stare at it until they've come up with a new rule for the English language.

2) Cars are so stressful. Even thinking about things like mileage and gas power vs. electric, having to worry about oil changes and tire rotation, tread wear and not to mention What IS That Bad Smell and Where Could It Be Coming From? really makes me think that I'd rather just own a horse, feed it, and shovel its poop. 

3) Actually, I'm considering just doing all of my travel by waterway. It would be conceivable for me to kayak into town and back. But, I don't know if anyone would take it as an acceptable excuse for not making it somewhere if I tell them that my kayak won't start.

Thoughts this week:

1) Digital money is a funny thing. My work doesn't actually pay me - they don't put money in my hand, they put numbers in a bank account for me. Then when I want to pay my bills I just give some of my numbers to somebody else. 

2) Somehow pinching your finger is one of the most painful things that can happen to you. I don't understand. Surely evolution should have eliminated some of those nerve bundles by now. Or maybe I should stop shutting my hand in things...

3) It's impossible to hold your tongue still. Look in the mirror for a long time with your mouth open and try to hold your tongue perfectly still. You don't control it. It controls you.
