Early morning ramblings

[jadesfire]

I'm starting to think my brain is never going to work properly again, that my mood is never going to lift and I'm never going to stop being so damn hungry. Hormones suck :(

On the plus side, the randomness in my head does not seem to be bothering my husband.

Me: That book I bought you explains why bananas go black in the fridge.
Me: It's something to do with lipids.
Him: Or something.
Me: Which makes more sense than limpets, which is what I read it as the first time.
Him: Lipids. Lipids
Me: I know. I just read it wrong.
Me: Although I much prefer the idea that they go brown because they have small barnacles growing over them.
Him: Because that makes so much more sense.
Me: Of course. They're bananacles.

Fortunately his response was not to banish me to the sofa overnight for insanity:

Him: You have to be careful about them. And the catercumbers.

The discussion then moved onto the dangers of being bitten by a moscumquat, but then it just got silly...

You know what? Forget what I said above. This is way more fun than making sense.

Your husband sounds really awesome, and I'm glad you had a good time with him.

Well, I think he's awesome, but I'm biased ;)

*snicker* That's a really funny conversation. It doesn't matter if you keep making no sense, we all understand you anyway :)

Thanks a lot for the beta - I can see what you mean. I'll have a play with it over the next couple of days. Oh, and I finally got that video finished:

You know, I'm not sure who should be more worried about that, me or you...

Glad it made sense - it was one of those vague shapey things that I wasn't sure worked outside my own head :) Look forward to seeing more!

Ah, the joys of misreading things and then having to live it down. Granted, your hubby sounds pretty amused about the whole affair.

And enjoy insanity, it's a lot better than apathy or some of those other pesky downers.

I like misreading - much more fun than what was actually written :D

You have conversations that are not insane with your husband? Remind me of that someday when I talk nonsense with the BF again ;)

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

The non-insane ones usually have to do with chores. These are the more common kind :D

bananacles *snort* those would probably go well with jam...

*tilts head* I have a feeling there's a reference here I'm not getting... But I also have a feeling that if I look at your journal it'll start making sense. ;)

*wanders over*

when my comments start to make sense to you BE VERY AFRAID

bananales *snort* still funny!

You think you're bad...I live with a dyslexic.

Molly (reading the paper): I don't agree with this genetic modification stuff. Next thing, we'll have cows the size of elephants...and elephants the size of cruise ships. (ever since then, any oversize thing has been referred to as a GM elephant)

Molly : it's like a herring in a rowing boat
Dad: what is a herring doing in a rowing boat
Molly: (disdainfully) Rowing. As you do.

Molly: (in M&S) Shall we have fishcakes. They have cod fishcakes, and salmon fishcakes, and cheese-and-onion fish cakes. (Yes, M&S cheese and onion croquettes have been referred to as cheese and onionfish ever since).

Molly: (breaking fingernail) !@@#!
Me: Who said that
Molly: Larry, my invisible walrus

*grin* I seem to have a strong tendency towards Spoonerisms when I'm tired and I've been completely knackered this week. In my best, I ended up discussing with a colleague how Greek history would have been different if they'd had lilos.

Those are great :) I want an invisible walrus!

Boo to hormones. :(

That book looks wonderfully interesting! I see it's been published here, too, so I'll go looking for it in the library. I can picture culling thing from it for class and my elder niece.

Catercumbers. Moscumquat. Hee.

It's the third in a series that started with "Does anything eat wasps?" and then "Why don't penguins get cold feet?"

The tests in this one are very practical and easy to do, and the writing style is nice and light and funny. Definitely recommended for the kitchen scientist :)

Thanks. Now I'll have to check all our fruit for fictional pests. *Paranoid*

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

Don't panic! Most of them are perfectly harmless, and it's too cold over here for moscumquats...
