I Blame it on the Pink

[elrhiarhodan]

I think it's because I'm not wearing black today (well, except for my watch, my shoelaces and my underpants), but my thoughts were definitely on the bizarre side this morning.

A random sample:

"I'm running late, so let's take the route to the highway with the most lights and make sure we're behind drivers who don't believe in making a right on red when there's no on-coming traffic." Yes, that's literally what I was thinking as I stopped for the sixth traffic light.

I'm wearing something that's not my winter coat, so I'm humming, "I feel pretty, oh so pretty." I catch a glimpse of my face framed by wispy gray hair and think, "NO."

It's Wednesday, and that means two things: It's HUMPPPPPPPPPPPPP DAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! (earworms you for that Geico commercial) and Wednesday is Sundae at Carvel. At 7:32 AM, I wanted chocolate soft serve with extra sprinkles.

Passing the Bekins Van Lines truck, which has the annoying "How's My Driving" sign pasted on the back. "Like an asshole." Actually, I was thinking that he was driving like Michael Schumacher, but that was mean.

Passing by the time and temperature sign, which read 31 degrees, I had to wonder if there was more snow in forecast, and if so, who do I need to call to stop this. Then I remembered that it was supposed to be over sixty today and I wanted to know who I needed to call to stop that.

Apparently, "Box of Birds" is New Zealand slang for feeling very good. Why?

And of course, the ever confounding, eternal question:

Why is Matt Bomer so pretty?

I have had no obvious random thoughts today but I'll be on the lookout. On the bright side, my mind didn't get stuck on anything in the shower - sometimes it repeats words over and over in an attempt to either get pronunciation correct or see how many ways I can pronounce something. This usually happens with last names. Elsa Pataky kills me - I have no idea how to pronounce her last name.

Lately I have been trying to figure out the difference in pronunciation between Tayvz and Taves (which is actually spelled Toews). It sounds the same to me. But so do pen and pin, collar and color, and other random things like that.

Now I'm having random thoughts. LOL

Elsa Pataky doesn't seem to pose a problem for me, we had a Governor Pataki who alternately pronounced his name with a long and a short "a" in the middle.

And I'm with you with repeating words and puzzling over sounds - I can say a word so many times it becomes meaningless and then I have no idea why I started doing that.

Usually on the drive home.
