Maybe it should be time for me to do some work, but I just did one of those cute, little smiles, and realized that I almost threw up a little.
(It's been much too long since I've used that icon, eh? Yes. Quite.)
It was based off of watching way too much House, as Bluejay and Batman have subsequently made me more addicted. By "more addicted," I mean I am now in possession of the borrowed DVDs, which has resulted in my lack of sleep, communication with friends and loved ones, and a life. All I'm doing is watching those damned DVDs.
Even as I sit at work, I'm
reading House quotes and hoping that day shift comes in early so I can squeeze in an episode before I go to bed.
But, the real reason for this post, besides my lamenting about my House addiction? I found this quote when searching for funniness:Dr. Gregory House: Ah, the Socratic Method. The best way we have of teaching everything-apart from juggling chainsaws.
It made me think of her. There's so many theories and attack strategies to approach the Tea Room Girl. I have the hours written on a pink Stickie for me to peruse later, and I think I may have to use the "wingman" approach proposed by Shink. It sounds the best so far.
I hate this uncertainty.
I'll be going away for a few days, both to clear my head and redecorate Smurf's bedroom, so maybe I'll knock out a few of the cobwebs and be otherwise alright. Maybe my audacity that was
so fleetingly coaxed out of hiding will remain, I'll get my brain back, instead of being stuck in this oh-noes-cute-girl-ahh! stage that I've been in since the entire tea episode. And I'll come back from that little state in the North (from seeing my little best friend, ha!), having fully re-adjusted my "pair" as Shink would say, and end up sauntering into that damned room, taking her by the shoulders and confusing/perturbing most of her customers. Oh, the possibilities.
Or, and more perplexing, I may COMPLETELY forget about all this, seeing as I am easily distracted by shiny things, and I'll visit my friend, and we'll organize HGTV-style, and I come a-Kermitting back, only to be thrown back into the work schedule and forget about tea for another nine months...
... sad thing is, it could go either way, folks.
