Non-Sequitur
I currently have the song
Pop Goes The World by
Men Without Hats stuck in my head, and much like belly button lint, it's refusing to go away and leave me alone. This unto itself does not worry me. The fact that I've been bopping in my chair along to the song for roughly 3 hours now is what's got me concerned...
Alternately, it's been two and a half days since I received a large, solid milk chocolate bunny. There is roughly 1/10th of the chocolate rabbit left. Usually such a rabbit would have been rendered extinct and digested within 24 hours, maybe going into 48 hours. This leftover 1/10th has me wondering if I'm slowing down in my old age (whatever age I might be, since I've once again forgotten if I'm 24 or 25). There was a time that I could have gorged myself on that chocolate rabbit in an afternoon and not thought anything of it. Things do slow down as one grows older, and I suppose this is simply one of those signs.
When I start prattling on about how in my days, we had to walk buck-naked for two days, uphill, against the blistering cold snow, and carrying all 12 of our younger siblings and their tubas for band practice, in order just to look at a chocolate bunny through the store window...then you should consider smacking my upside the back of the head.
Just giving the world a heads-up.
