sailorzeo | Randomness from today

I was sitting at the workstation, preparing to redo a mailing project, when I noticed something. Now, to set the stage, one must know that my bangs are long. Long as in, I should have trimmed them last week. They hang about half an inch over the upper edge of my glasses, so yes, they are most definitely in my field of vision. So. As I was working on the computer, I noticed something odd, something clumpy-looking, in my bangs. I took a moment, focused, then swept my fingers through that section of my bangs. I expected to see a clump of thread or some other fabric-based bit of fuzz fall to the desk. Instead, I had to take a few moments to process what, exactly, fell. It was not a bit of fuzz.

It was an ant. A small, black ant. While my brain tried to rumble into gear and figure out just how I ended up with an ant in my hair, my right hand moved of its own accord and squooshed it.

At the grocery store after work, I noticed the display of Swedish Fish. Just a dollar for an eight-ounce bag. I like Swedish Fish; I haven't had Swedish Fish in a long time.

"Fish are good for you," I told my husband as I added the bag to the basket. "They're brain food."
