tubularrrrrr duuuuuuude

I wake up and walk outside. Amy is sleeping... on the floor between the couch and the coffee table. Then I go put my bagel in the toaster. Next thing I know, Amy is gone. But where to? The bedroom, clearly. She is under her blanket, with her feet sticking out the end. She hears me enter the room, opens her eyes, stares at me for about 15 seconds and sleepily says, "I live in a tube." Wait, what? You live in a tube? Go figure.

Myself? Yourself? Whoself?

Celine Dion's infamous cover of "All By Myself"

Now I know I don't want to be all by myself. I don't think anyone does, except for, perhaps, a hermit. We are watching clips from So You Think You Can Dance; Katee and Joshua performed a contemporary routine to "All By Myself" so we're having a bit of a chuckle about the song and what not. I declared that I didn't want to be all by myself. Amy, of course, then declared, "I don't want to be all by yourself either!" No, Amy, no you don't...

World War II?

We're watching Atonement,and Kimi asks, "What war is this?"

Ashley points out that it's World War II. Pretty straightforward, right? Wrong.

"Who was fighting who?" asks Kimi.

"Well, the France and England were fighting together against the Germans --"

"Wait! I thought that was World War III!"

"Umm, that's the name they give to any major conflict nowadays."

"But I really thought there was a World War III! Or I just shifted everything ..."

Yeah, honey, yeah you did. She said that she should think before she speaks. Perhaps, this is why we leave the history to Ashley. Roomie knows best. Sister ... well, not so much.

Precision is KEY

I was updating my Meyers-Briggs personality results, and Kimi's looking at her relationship chart, exclaiming, "Michelle is in my circle of thingy!"

By the way, I'm INFP and she's ESTJ. We're animae, aka complete opposites. Way to go! Now I'm scared.
