In My Head

Scenario: Thinking in my head puttering around my apartment.

Me:  It's a little boring not having someone to like.  There's no excitement.  There's no one to look forward to seeing.
Me (Voice of Reason): Wait...no.  Are you saying that you miss and want the drama?!?!


Pause.
My heart seizes up in a mad panic.


Me:  Oh yeah...No.  No, no more drama.  I'm gonna go watch Shahid Kapoor dance now.


I have to admit there is that thrill when you start liking someone, when you see him, talk to him, etc...
But then how easily I forget how fast it goes downhill when the waters get murky murky.

Morale of the story: Girls are stupid too.

Sometimes I think:

"I'd feel sorry for my husband if we got married past 35. 'Sorry, honey, you missed out on my prime.  I was much hotter ten years ago.'"

Booyakalakashaka

Scene:  So my roommate just got a job at my favourite cafe in Toronto, Hotel Gelato.

Cute Barista (my nickname for the guy who always serves me):  So how'd you hear about this?
Roomie:  Well my roommate always comes here.  She's a regular.
CB:  Oh really?  What does she look like?  Maybe I know her.
Roomie:  Well she's Asian.
CB:  Is she hot?
Roomie:  Erm...I don't know.  I'm a girl, and I'm not attracted to girls.  And I'm not attracted to Asians.  She's not ugly.
CB:  I think I know who she is...She's REALLY HOT.

Of course it could be some other really hot asian girl, but I haven't come across any in my frequent visits there so I'm going to assume it's me, and allow my ego to be thoroughly stroked.  :)

Me: umm..the handle shattered into many pieces much like my heart a month ago
drama queen? yes, i am

Scene: I am relating this conversation to Schnurgh Schnurgh who is sitting across from me.
Me: So I just told my BFF that my heart shattered into many pieces much like my mug.
Schnurgh Schnurgh: Did you clean it up?
Me: Of course I did!
Schnurgh Schnurgh: Ok, cause I don't want someone to come over and slit their leg open...
Me: Like my heart!
Schnurgh Schnurgh: NO!  Oh dear, you're going to relate this to every person's tragic experience.
Schnurgh Schnurgh mimicking potential conversation: 
"I'm dying." 
"Just like I did!"

Scene: Watching a Bollywood dance scene on Youtube.
Me: Oh we can take dance lessons when we move to India!
Time passes...
Me: I want to go to the Taj Mahal
Schnurgh Schnurgh: I want to go to Kerala.  
Time passes...
Schnurgh Schnurgh: Did you know that the Taj Mahal is sinking?
Silence
Schnurgh Schnurgh: Oh you didn't say it!
Me: LIKE MY HEART!!!
Schnurgh Schnurgh:  NOO

Scene: Puttering Around the Apartment
Me: Sigh.  I need to install Parallels.  I get so distracted.  
Schnurgh Schnurgh:  Did you just say "heroin"?
Me: NO!  I said 'Parallels'.
Schnurgh Schnurgh: THEY DON'T EVEN RHYME.  In my head I was thinking 'My roommate is a heroin addict.  Is this what she does on her day off?  I don't want to be here on Mondays.'
