Scary thought, I know, but if you could read my mind today, this is what you would find:
- “I sure love those Russian dolls. I’d love a set. And I’d give them such a good home. Hmm…yep, that’s just about reason enough - I’d go all the way to Russia just to get a set.”
- “How in the world is it possible that my computer cord gets tied into a knot when one side is plugged into the wall and the other into my computer? It’s not like I tied the cord into a knot and then plugged it in! But i mean really - it’s an unexplainable phenomenon! It defies the rules of physics! Hmm…got it. There must be a knot-tying fairy that goes around tangling and tying up cords. Yeah…that’s the only reasonable explanation.”
- “Oooo, that’s pretty! I want one! (http://www.potterybarn.com/products/bedford-project-table-set/?pkey=cdesks-home-office). Hmm…I wonder if I’m coveting? Oh well, this project table is worth it!”
- “Dang, I’m pretty much awesome. I work at freakin’ University of Oxford! snap.”
- “Mmm, dinner sounds good. Wait…what time is it? 3pm!?! Dang…bit early that is.”
- “Jane Eyre. Best. Book. Ever.” Jane Eyre - ”Still indomitable was the reply-’I care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself. I will keep the law given by God, sanctioned by man. I will hold to the principles received by me when I was sane, and not mad-as I am now. Laws and principles are not for the times when there is no temptation; they are for such moments as this, when body and soul rise in mutiny against their rigour: stringent are they; inviolate they shall be. If at my individual convenience I might break them, what would be their worth? They have a worth-so I have always believed; and if I cannot believe it now, it is because I am insane-quite insane: with my veins running fire, and my heart beating faster than I can count its throbs. Preconceived opinions, foregone determinations, are all I have at this hour to stand by: there I plant my foot.’” (pg. 358)
