100 Random Thoughts..

...as fast as typing allows.

1. I probably should have gone grocery shopping today.
2. Because what am I going to eat tomorrow?
3. And I probably should build up my food storage if I’m going to be laid off.
4. Probably should have done that a long time ago.
5. I hope I don't get laid off. I’m kind of irritated at people that borrowed beyond their means who contributed to the likelihood of me being laid off.
6. Though if I was laid off I could spend more time reading.
7. No I wouldn’t, I’d have to be sending out resumes and interviewing, which is probably my least favourite thing in the world to do.
8. Other than sleeping in airports.
9. Or getting up early in the cold.
10. I wonder if it would be easier or harder to get up if I wasn’t sleeping alone.
11. I hope my carpets are drying out ok.
12. I don’t want to wake up to mouldy carpets.
13. I still love Cliff the plumber, even if he contributed to the minor flood in my closet.
14. Mind a blank.
15. Chocolate.
16. Nah, not really hungry.
17. What is this song on my ipod?
18. I swear I don’t even recognise half the music on my ipod.
19. Does it make me pathetic that I’m spending Saturday night doing laundry and writing down my stream of consciousness thoughts?
20. I wish my stream of consciousness thoughts were a lot deeper.
21. I could cheat.
22. Nah.
23. I CHOSE to stay home tonight, anyway.
24. I was actually looking forward to it, and cleaning, and getting things together.
25. Not that I’ve accomplished all that I meant to.
26. But that’s a typical Saturday.
27. And the mini-flood didn’t help.
28. The temple open house was nice today.
29. The bride’s room chandeliers were tops.
30. And some nice paintings, though I saw the same prints repeated multiple times, 31. which makes me think the church needs a few more good artists.
31. Maybe I should have gone to art school after all.
32. Are you kidding me? Artists would be suffering even more from this economy.
33. My brother always said I should have been an engineer.
34. I still have hopes that Obama will help.
35. I have a crush on Obama, let’s face it.
36. Whoever it was who said it last night was right, Obama does sound like a first name.
37. President Obama. President Barack. President Obama.
38. Like Drs who say things like “I’m Dr. Dave,” to be all friendly.
39. Whereas I don’t really want a personal relationship with my doctor.
40. Really? Only 40?
41. I still can’t believe the customer service chick at t-mobile asked me what the difference between London and England was this morning.
42. Sometimes it would be nice to have a customer service call without having to give my life story.
43. But I guess it’s nice that they’re friendly.
44. I wonder if there’s a way to stop my ipod playing podcasts when it’s on shuffle.
45. And christmas music.
46. Ray Charles, that’s more like it.
47. I need more happy songs.
48. A-M was right, it’s difficult to write happy songs that aren’t about relationships. And aren't "What a Wonderful World."
49. I like Jess’s idea of having an imaginary enemy.
50. A nemesis. There’s an underused word. Also “vexed.”
51. My nemesis would have a black fedora, and...wait, I’m visualising Dick Cheney.
52. Can’t decide if my superpower would be flying or having extreme beauty. You could get a lot done with either.
53. Flying, for sure. Less emotionally complicated.
54. Agh, another hideous song.
55. When is apple going to develop themed shuffles depending on your mood. Not playlists that you have to pick yourself.
56. Because that’s way too much effort, and the joy of shuffle is the surprise.
57. I need to polish my shoes.
58. I need another Saturday.
