Sometimes I just need to ramble. Get the chatter out of my head, you know.

Like right now I have a word stuck in my head. Mesophelia. That is phontically spelled because I don't really know how to spell it, I really don't know what it means and I really don't know why it is stuck in my head. I think I heard it on a TV commercial or something which made me like the sound of it. Sounds kind of melodic...but since it was stuck in my head I knew I needed to replace it with something else....so I thought of my favorite word. I guess if I have something stuck in my head maybe I should just try and replace it with something that I like. My favorite word is dodecahedron. I'll let you look it up. It will be good for you to look it up. And while you're there let me know how to spell Mesophelia...I think that it is some sort of disease.

I had an allergy shot yesterday. I get them every 3 weeks. I used to get them weekly...have been getting them for about 3 years now. Not really sure if they are helping me but I am afraid to quit because I don't want to feel the way I used to...oh wait, that must be the barometer that means they must be working...duh!!!

I used the public restroom at the clinic yesterday and wondered why I seem to have so much trouble when I use the public loo. They have those automatic towel dispenser things that you have to move your hand across in order for it to give you a little sheet of paper to dry your hands on. Now, I see other people and they seem to have no trouble at all. They just move their hand across the front and out comes a sheet. I tried it. Nothing. I tried it again. Nada. I thought maybe I am too close. Nope. Maybe I am too far. Nu uh. What is the DANG secret to these machines. Since it was a one person bathroom I thought what the heck I'll jump up and down, maybe it's stuck. That didn't work either. Ok I was really getting to feel like a moron marooned on a paperless island. I decided to put my hand firmly on the bottom of the darn thing (we can say darn and dang more often now since Palin does..heehee), anyway, that seemed to help. So, with one hand I held the bottom of the dispenser and THEN waved my hand in front of it. VOILA! Out popped some paper toweling. I was kind of excited now and kept doing it. I washed my hands again and tried doing it without holding on but nope, I had to hold it and then wave. I think finally some one began pounding on the door. I still might be there dispensing toweling just to prove I was as competent as anyone else in making it work. Whew!

I have this light in my bedroom (called a lamp!) and it won't light when I turn the light switch on. I have to jiggle the night stand. It's kind of like the clap on, clap off light, but requires more effort. (s'nick)

Well, I think I feel better now after having rambled a bit. It's always nice to come here and just let it all hang out. Catch you later gator! --PJ
