Meme: Forty sentences

[avrelia]

A meme, I spotted at mrissa's, and found amusing to try myself.

I am supposed to finish forty random sentences. Result: I can be random, occasionally.


1) My uncle: is in Kiev, and an elder-tree is in a garden. Which is both a Russian proverb about lapse in logic and my personal truth.
2) Never in my life: I would grow mushrooms out of computer bugs, minutes, and flimsy excuses.
3) When I was five: I was pretty much the same as I am now.
4) High school was: weird fun.
5) I will never forget: many things I’d love to forget, and that I forgot something, but I don’t remember what.
6) I once met: a man who had two ears on the sides of his head.
7) There’s this girl I know who: sells homemade clouds, three pence each, and the pre-packaged heartfelt commiserations (two dollars for a six-pack.) Do you need some?
8) Once, at a bar: a hedgehog met an ostrich. They had a night of soulful discussions of the meaning of life and drunken sex under bar stools, and then they left and never were seen again.
9) By noon I’m usually: awake. That’s all I can say about noon.
10) Last night: I was painfully trying to figure out five important books in my life.
11) If I only had: a flying carpet.
12) Next time I go to church, I: am not sure what I’ll be doing, as usual.
13) Terri Schiavo: rests in peace.
14) What worries me most: stupid things that I could have avoided if I were not me.
15) When I turn my head left, I see: a row of computers.
16) When I turn my head right, I see: a row of computers – as I am in the college library right now.
17) You know I’m lying when I say: I am dead.
18) What I miss most about the eighties: all things we miss about being a child, without wanting to actually be a child ever again: young parents and grandparents, sunlight, carelessness, clarity.
19) If I were a character written by Shakespeare, I’d be: dead by now.
20) By this time next year: I’ll be doing something useful.
21) This time last year: I was jetlagged and blue, and had a lot of chocolate to it.
22) I have a hard time understanding: physics. For some reason I decided so at fourteen, and managed to upheld my decision - not sure to what purpose.
23) If I ever go back to school I’ll: draw a gay dragon on a chalkboard. I used to do it every morning in my senior year, and I miss it.
24) You know I like you if: I am not trying to avoid you at all cost.
25) If I won an award, the first person I’d thank would be: whoever is giving it to me. I mean, I would be grateful to my family first of all, but as the politeness goes, when I am given something, I say “thanks” to a giver.
26) Quine, Kierkegaard, Bentham, Rawls: are ostensibly humans.
27) Take my advice, never: take my advice.
28) My ideal breakfast is: coffee and sandwiches.
29) A song I love, but do not have is: the song you’ve never heard and never will.
30) If you visit my hometown, I suggest: you have me nearby as your guide.
31) Tulips, character flaws, microchips & track stars: are not created equal.
32) Why won’t anyone: invent the teleportation already; I hate spending hours on the plane.
33) If you spend the night at my house, you will turn into a frog. You’re welcome, by the way.
34) I’d stop my wedding for: a bevy of fraggles asking for a refuge in the champagne bottle.
35) The world could do without: anything, but in wouldn’t be the world any longer.
36) My favourite blonde is: my school friend Julia, though she has some competition.
37) Paper clips are more useful than: warts.
38) If I do anything well, it’s: dreaming. I see most wonderful dreams, though I am not sure whether I deserve praise for it.
39) One decision that consistently haunts me is: to study law. It is not that I am not sure I should have, but it was the first life-defining decision that in turn
40) And by the way: I am not a dolphin.
