Still at home: ANOTHER LIST OF “NORMAL” THINGS:

• Remember the brother I wrote about in my ‘List of Normal Things’, who doesn’t like me singing in the shower? Yeah, he moved out. It wasn’t my singing that did it though. It was the unrelenting, yap of our neighbour’s ankle-biting, fluff-ball, which some may even consider a canine…I would not grieve it’s death. Not one little bit!
• I’m currently listening to Days Away. Try it, it’s good for almost any mood.
• I’ve been to New Zealand. But I’ve always wondered if I should tell people that. I’ve only been there once…I had a 2 hour lay-over in Auckland. The airport there is pretty nice.
• I saw Shutter Island last night, it was great. I used my twitter followers to help me understand the ending…is that cheating?
• I always got A’s in math during high-school. However, I never understood long division. I still have no idea how to do it. Funny thing is, I’ve managed to live my life just fine without it! (That’s what we have calculators for…duh).
• I’m wearing my favourite button-up. Thanks to Snakes & Suits!
• Yes, I do spell some words with that un-necessary ‘U’. That’s how they do it in Australia, which is where I grew up. Now I just seem confused (I am). Eg; sometimes I throw the U in “colour” sometimes I don’t. Same goes for my accent, it’s half Aussie, half Yank (American)…sounds like I’m faking both at the same time.
