1) My kitchen sink stopper is a non-standard size (because my sink is ancient and non-standard), so I can't stop up my sink if I want to. It just doesn't fit right (but it keeps veg peels from going down the pipes).
So answer me this: Why, then, when I dump something disgusting, does the sink stopper magically seal for once, so that I have to reach through an inch of murky, coffee-ground- and oatmeal-filled water to unstop it?
2) There is a motion-sensor light above my front door. It does not turn on with a switch. When the switch is on, it still needs motion to set it off, and many things do this - cats, waving banana leaves that are 30 feet away, wrinkles in the fabric of the universe...
So answer me this: Why, when I open the front door and Goldie and I walk out into the pitch blackness and I want to take the trash out and want light to keep me from breaking an ankle, so I stand there waving my arms in every direction like a total maniac, will the light not go on until I have waved so hard that I have already fallen off the front porch?
Do you have any questions? Or answers?

PS I love you people! I don't say it often enough but Valentines Day shouldn't just be reserved for romantic love, right? I just hope that everyone gets the same amount of fun, support and friendship that I have from blogging.
I have no answers to your questions. But I share your love of my fellow bloggers!
ReplyDeleteOh! I have so many questions.
ReplyDeleteI love you too Suebob, and I agree 100% re: the blogosphere.
Those are both great questions... my questions are related to the existence of stupid people,
ReplyDeletemy ever-lasting eye-twitch(open to remedies that don't include botox), and my office being arctic ... and that just covers today. Oh the questions!
Happy V-Day!
Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeletethe motion-light in the basement laundry room in my apartment complex does that too. also, when i try to go in the doors at the library, it's like i'm invisible.
ReplyDeletehappy v-day. it's getting better all the time, as the beatles say.
I had a motion light like that once. Just once.
ReplyDeleteMay it rest in peace.
t's the universe's way of telling you you are alive and not simply a banana leaf.
ReplyDeletehappy v-day to you.
I love Jess's answer.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
Hmmm....I have the sink issue and my stoppers actually fit. Just not when I want to fill the sink. But if there's something gross in it, it stops right up! Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteI hate having to reach through dishwater. Ew.
ReplyDeleteI love you too!! Why don't you come up here and see me sometime?
