Signs
Watch the watch.
Anyway, so if the video works, that's my cool watch that I've had since I was ... twelve, I think, maybe thirteen, that I wrote about the other day.
In other news. K says that wearing headphones is the universal sign for "don't talk to me," and while I think this should be correct, her lament, and mine, is that wearing headphone actually seems to be the sign to every idiot who crosses your path to start a pointless conversation with in which the most significant words spoken are the first three, forcing you to say "Wait a minute, wait a minute; I have headphones on," and then fumble at your ears and in your pockets for the pause button. Guess how my day started?
Actually, I walked to school again since K's car was in the shop, and listened to the UK audiobook of The Prisoner of Azkaban, and the school nurse started talking to me the minute I put my foot in the building, interfering with Stephen Fry's dulcet tones. But the car is good now, the Hubs and I just picked it up (K has gone to class with my car); the mechanic had to replace the alternator he put in last week and so there was no charge to us. That's my kind of pricing.
Aren't TV commercials idiotic? One caught my attention just before; it was for wipes for kids to use who are learning to use the toilet. I don't know what they're called, but the tagline that caught my attention was "xx wipes make wiping fun!" Uh ... excuse me. Under what circumstances does wiping one's ass need to be fun?
Okay, got to eat something.

That is such a very cool watch!! Glad you could show us how it works. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThere are a few commercials out there that actually give me the Heebie-Geebies. The Burger King creeps me out and OMG! That adult Cabbage Patch Kid makes me want to run and hide in the closet. There are just some things that should never, under any circumstance become big. Those are two. I shall write more in my own diary about this. It has me upset all over again! ((Shudder))
ReplyDeleteEverything has to be 'fun' for the kids these days. No boredom allowed ever. They might wake up and start thinking or something.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kindness earlier. I don't know why that woman is always so mean or why I let her nastiness hurt so much. Guess maybe it's because she hits in a very tender spot. Who doesn't doubt their mothering? Though her assumptions that momming should be all sacrifice all the time and we should f-ing smile about it is insane. Feh.
So about the fun ass wiping, how's yours these days? ~LA
