 I remember when the state mandated hand washing signs in public restrooms were benign and innocent: cartoon characters with soap bubbly hands encouraging cleanliness. These days the Oregon is being a lot more direct if the jagged large red letter "stop spreading disease" stickers are any indication.

What do you always carry with you?

1. Chapstick. With lips like these - necessity.
2. Book. Never leave home without one. Hate standing in line staring at the floor.
3. Ipod. I know, I know. I love my little Mockingbird, though. She sings all my favorite songs!
4. A sense of excitement. Never know what the next moment will bring.

Why can't I just go to sleep, already?

I stole this cause it looked cool. And I'm a quiz freak, so I thought I'd share the answers with you, cause well, for whatever reason I have been struck with the urge to make up for my recent lack of livejournal posts with a slurry of nonsense before bed.

So there...

Honestly, I'm not terribly surprised....something about not trusting the government and being sardonic kind of gave it away. Although the appearance of the Millinnium Falcon so high on the list makes me giggle (or maybe that's just sheer exhaustion and the need to GO TO SLEEP)
In any event, move over Chewy...

Why is it always a scenario of assumed destruction? Maybe I'm stuck in whimsy land, but for a bull to be in a china shop in the first place shows a rather discerning amount of taste - why else would a bull go into a china shop in the first place? Then, wouldn't the bull be the most careful of all patrons, aware of his broad stature and impressive horns. I confess, the mental image of a Ankole-Watusi in a tweed suit wandering through narrow isles filled with elegant ming dynasty vases fills we with the same delight I felt reading Chris Van Allsburg books as a kid. I just think it's unfair to the bull to assume inherent violence in its nature.

Just a thought.
