Now actually back for true and reals! And I promise not to pull this not-posting-for-months thing again. If I found I haven't posted in a while, I will find some gibberish and/or picture of a cute animal to keep you all happy.

A Bad Combination

A few days ago I was playing cards with my friends. I was REALLY REALLY BAD at the particular card game that we were playing. I was inexplicably, terribly, wondrously bad. It was fairly late. I drank a rootbeer. I had just watched the best musical in all creation" "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" (STARRING NEIL PATRICK HARRIS). Suddenly, I turned on a friend and fellow player:

Me: I HATE YOU SO MUCH!!! I HOPE YOU DIE!!!

I then proceeded to collapse on the table and laugh hysterically for about five minutes. Fortunately, my friends recognize that I am a little bit odd and love me anyway. They actually thought that the whole thing was hysterical. But this made me wonder about myself and the times that I seem to totally lose it for no apparent reason and do something bizarre. Is there a pattern? Is there a solution?

I could not come up with anything, but it seems to me that there exist a few things that are clearly BAD COMBINATIONS for me.

Here are some of them! I love lists!!!!!!*

1) Soda + Neil Patrick Harris + Card Games = A BAD COMBINATION

2) Dancing + Smoky Dance-Club air + Dehydration = A BAD COMBINATION

3) Three in the Morning + Paper Due the Next Day + Five Cups of Coffee = A VERY BAD COMBINATION.

4) Horror Stories + Insomnia + Violent Reactions to People Sneaking up and Tapping You on the Shoulder = A POTENTIALLY FATAL COMBINATION

5) Love of chocolate + Lack of exercise + many excuses not to exercise = AN UNHEALTHY COMBINATION

6) Feelings of Guilt + Actual Guilt+ Feigned Indifference = A NOBODY'S-BUYING-IT COMBINATION.

7) Snow storm + Computer at the shop + No Car = AN UNTECHNOLOGICAL COMBINATION.

And Finally:

Feelings of self-importance + Desire to be autobiographical + Too much free time = A BLOG-CREATING COMBINATION.
