It's most important that I stop with the fingernails already.
(This is a secret. I'm nervous about school. Don't tell anybody.)
Back at work today (finally) and ashamed to say that I was ready to be back as of last night. When it gets too quiet and relaxed I start to consider the possiblilties. It's possible that I'm losing my mind. It's possible that everything I purchase furthers someone elses suffering. It's possible that my lazy attitude toward so many of my convictions is going to land my ass in hell. It's possible that at this very minute I'm Missing It.
My nerves tend to eat my heart alive sometimes.
I didn't know that game shows were on at ten thirty pm. I played Jeopardy! against myself while taking a MENSA personality test titled "Are you Practical?"
The questions were like this:
Could you repair a broken roof shingle?
A: Easily
B: With Some difficulty
C: Couldn't Cope
and you gave yourself 3 points for every A, two points for every B, and zero points for every C answer. I got a really high score because I had done or knew pretty much how to do most of the things on the test, except for repairing a window. The evaluation was the best part, as it ended with the words "You're the kind of person who could probably deal with most practical situations. I hate you."
Ah, mensa.
