Hey, do you

Chatterbox: Inkwell

Hey, do you

Hey, do you guys ever get words stuck in your head? Today I have the words gossamer, inundated, and phosperence stuck in my head. Am I completely crazy, or does this happen to other people?

Um, did I just hear Koffee say that she spends her leisure time making up jokes about bananas? This disturbs me for two reasons: firstly, doesn't the world have enough banana jokes? and secondly, it's just sort of weird. :)

((I'm just joking, Koffee- you crack me up, too! :) ))

Yes, that is how I spend my free time. Also, I make up sayings that could go on the front of T-shirts, and also words, such as Serepulous and Polophobic. I'm glad to hear I crack you up. This could mean someone has been posting under my name, or else you need to see a doctor. Kake tells me I'm crazy, but then again...so is she...

Yes, I do get words stuck in my head and repeat them over and over until they don't sound like words, or I question why they mean what they mean.  Do this ever happen to you???  Or am I just crazy????

AH HA! So it happens to you, too! Welcome to the club Phoenix...now it's only a matter of time until you start hearing voices and thinking of yourself as funny.  *scary music plays* *thinks that the voices have come back* *realizes it's the radio* *laughs* *hears someone whisper Koffee, you need a highly caffinated drink RIGHT NOW!* *screams and runs* Hehehe...

 Yeah, it happens to me sometimes, too.

But it's more often funny phrases from books, like ''What, the GRIFFIN got stuck on the roof!?", quote courtesy of Pinhoe Egg, written by Diana Wynne Jones.

Oh my gosh, Koffee, I laugh out loud when I read your posts. And I will admit it... I'm almost as crazy as you are (impossible to measure up completely, of course). Today, for some entirely uninexplicable reason, I just kept muttering, "Unsolicited toering." Do not ask me why- I have no rational explanation. Now I have to post this before I decide to delete all of it and run off to hide in a cave.

Thanks! Same goes to you! Though I think that Kake may be slightly more insane than I am. I'll have to drag her back on here...today at school we had this joke about hippos, PG13 movies, chairs, and not showering...I think she might be a little more loco...

*realizes she's reading over my shoulder* *turns and tries to explain in a nice way what I meant* *figures it's pointless* *sobs like a baby* *notices that this is all in my head and Kake is actually not standing behind me*

*Laughs evily*
*smiles bigly*
Guess what Koffee, yesterday, I had to go to rehersals with stinky Hippo and the whole way there, the stereo in the car was blasting out the Wicked soundtrack!!!!!!!!!!!*Sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob!!!!!!!!!!*
Then, he just had to tell me ll about it and he(correction: it) ruined the whole play for me by explaining the whole thing!!!!!!!!!!!!*sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob sob!!!!!!!!!!*

poor Kake! When will you understand that since we share a telepathic connection, you don't have to tell me these things because I already know them? Oh well, I sympathize with you anyway. :D

Oh, definitely! But phrases, like, "okra, beans, and leafy greens," or "automatapias on the moon." Then I sing them, in different tunes, until my mom yells, and then I start over again. *grins and starts to sing* *mom says that I'm doing the repetative thing again* *I duck my head, stop, then 5 minutes later sings okra, beans, and leafy greens over and over again. Then greens that are leafy, beans and okra . . .* 

And, Koffee, you're not crazy! If you are, then we all are!!  

NOTE: If everybody is crazy, then wouldn't the sane person be the insane one?

Today I got the phrase 'barefoot summer' stuck in my head, so I turned it into a poem.
