Hobolot

I have a new mission: to build Hobolot, a monstrous cardboard castle located in the center of Austin. Eventually, I shall expand far enough to swallow the entire city into my own boundaries and rule it as Queen. Thousands of years from now, my biography shall become the world's best selling book ever, which will prompt Amazon to finally list the Bible as fiction.

Really though, I need to find a place to live before this becomes reality. I'd make a terrible Queen.

2 perspectives when talking for an extended period of time: the talker, and the impatient listener. Ever have that feeling where you're listening to somebody talk on and on and on and the only thing you can think about is something slightly related that you want to bring up, but you can't get a word in? Happens to me all the time. I frequently end up on the other end of this spectrum as well: the talker. Whatever it is I'm talking about is just so extremely interesting, and I'm aware of this, so I have to keep going. Obviously everyone cares tremendously about whatever it is I'm talking about. Only thing worse than waiting for someone to break for a breath to get a word in, is being the person that's waited on to stop talking. Eventually the impatient listener is going to interrupt with their own story, and when that moment arrives, how awkward and disappointing does that feel? Very much so, I must say.

A spoonful...

Measurements:
A spoonful of cough syrup- the amount in which would remain in the spoon after jogging with it
A spoonful of mintchip ice cream- the maximum amount that would stay piled atop a mound while carefully eating in a calculated pattern that will allow for the ice cream to be savored without loosing any sugary deliciousness.

I stalk customers on street view

I have a new hobby (second to Geocaching, of course) and that is Google Street View. My coworker gave me a trick where you zoom out as far as you can on the whole world, pick up the little street view guy, and drop him in a random spot and see where you end up. It's taken form since then to a guessing game because sometimes I'll end up in the middle of nowhere without any recognizable landmarks or landscape and it doesn't tell you where you are until you zoom out. Yeah, that's right, I get that bored at work sometimes. I also like to explore my city and the city in which I am moving to (official announcement to come at a later date), especially the rich areas with awesome houses.

Friends, Colleges, Family... I am turning into my mother. While watching movies and TV shows, I notice the closet pulls, painted cabinets, and customized refrigerators. I have taken an interest in luxury architecture over household gadgetry. What is happening to me? I have *ahem* taste now. [though still don't have that ol sense of smell, sigh]
