My husband knows this most of all but my mind works a little differently than other people. Sometimes I'll just bust out with some strange non-sequitor and John will be like "what the hell?" Like one time we were driving down the road and I asked him if he had ever used an outhouse.
"??" popped up over his head like a cartoon (I swear).
"Oh, you didn't see that shed?", I asked.
"Excuse me, are you having a stroke or something?", he said.
"No. Oh, you don't know what I was thinking." I realized. "Here is how it goes: I was looking out the window at the houses. One house had a shed that was kind of run down, I thought 'wouldn't it be funny if that was actually an outhouse. Wouldn't that stink to have to use an outhouse'...., blah blah".
So the reason this anecdote popped in to my head is a more evil thought flow I had this morning. This Zakaris Masoui guy (I know I didn't spell it right, I don't care) got life in prison. Fine, I'm not going to go on and on about the moronic jury. I was thinking I'm sure someone in prison will get him and that's fine with me but then I thought you really shouldn't leave these things up to prisoners. I bet they get some sort of street cred for that kind of thing and that isn't right.
So I was thinking (again this is all in about 10 seconds) who else could whack him without any real repercussions? Then one of those ads for a pharmaceutical company came on and I thought - if you are definitely dying of cancer - soon - couldn't you "whack" someone and pretty much get away with it? By the time they try you etc. you would be dead yourself.
I know it's strange but really, if you think about it, it's true.
