Things I Do All Day

I've got a lot to talk about, and the longer I wait the more it piles up and I begin to forget what happened before all the fresh, new information came along. That said, remind me about Travis' second visit to Spain, the Lost epidemic sweeping the Academy, and the Horrible Experience Awaiting Me. Thanks.

But before all of these things, there is something that desperately needs to be told if only for personal release. Pause this idea, though, and rewind to a few months ago when I fell in love with McSweeneys.net and the weekly installments of Lists they produce. These lists are often hilarious and unfortunately quite addictive. Fast forward, and I can't get these lists out of my head. Ladies and gentlemen, a typical day in my head:

Cross the street. I think, "Ways to cross the street while the old woman stares at you." Unable to come up with more than one way (the natural way that I am walking), and giggle to myself. While walking to the Academy, suddenly think "Things to Hum While Going to a Job You Hate" and stop the thought quickly upon realizing that the list is infinity. Get on the elevator, think "People You Don't Want To Be In The Elevator With," but it's only the one guy that's on the elevator, and that's because he's stinky.

You get the point. At this junction, I am no longer able to stop the lists that continually cascade into my brain all day.

P.S. I am so crazy.
