I’ve Gotten Stupider (got stupid?)

Song of the Moment: “Untouched” – The Veronicas (nevermind the weird MV)

I realize I’ve become incredibly stupid since graduating college. Sometimes I’m not sure if it’s stupidity or a stroke. Yes, a stroke. Everytime I read the symptom, “sudden confusion, troubling speaking or understanding,” I think of how that’s me on a daily basis. Sometimes someone will be talking to me about something, and I’m looking at them, listening (or I think I am), but when they ask me a question, I give the deer-in-headlights look and crinkle my nose and in a deep manly unattractive tone, I go, “HUH?” Or, sometimes I’ll be the one speaking about a topic, and midsentence, I’ll just stop abruptly and stare into the distance, completely forgetting what I wanted to say, and if I don’t stop speaking, my words and sentences just become a big jumble of mumbling. Example: “So, oh my gosh guys, the other day I was walking down the street and I saw this person fa*()#&$98jwh(*&, and it was weird…yeah.” I swear, my brain is rebelling.

A few nights ago, my friend and I were watching Nip/Tuck, but I had to depart early to go pick up my bf from work. The next day, I meant to ask my friend what the cliff hanger was at the end of the show, but instead, I asked her, “Were there any hang gliders?” HANG GLIDERS. Come on, Erica. That’s unacceptable. My friend asked me what a “hang glider” was, and as if I knew my shiznit, I go, “You know how at the end of shows they end it leaving you at the edge of your seat, so you have to wait until the next episode?” My god, I need school again. How classy of it would be for me to say, “I’ve gotten stupider”. Then you really know I need to go back to elemetary school.

Alrighty dighties, folks. TGIF, even though it feels like -5 degrees out. I got my ring resized, so it fits and all, but when I’m out in the cold, my finger shrinks and my ring starts to roll around, but when I enter buildlings, they swell and then my finger ends up looking like a sausage exploding out of my ring. NOT ATTRACTIVE. Enjoy the weekend!
