Something that I realized on the bus this morning is that I horribly over think things, resulting in a mangled form of the idea that I had in the first place. Oddly enough, the thought I had this morning that brought me to this conclusion was from Finding Nemo. There is a part in the dentist's office when the starfish, Peach, announces the time and cues the dentist's entry. Shortly thereafter, when the audience is assumed to be paying attention to the actual plot and not the dentist, he apologizes to his secretary for being late. What I wondered was why, if the dentist arrived late, would the starfish know the exact second that he would arrive. Originally I assumed that that minute error was simply to be disregarded, and obviously I should have ended there. Unfortunately, being the introverted freak that I am, I started thinking about the possibility of him always being late, but then wouldn't he simply say he was coming in at a later time?

Scary, I know.
