so you want to be a floating head in a crystal ball telling fortunes....

That's how I ended up in Mexico - my choices were abandon my world as I knew it to move with my husband or stay in Chicago, living my life without him. I've lived in Chicago without a sig other, I chose the unknown. Now I'm writing again, so I'd say it worked out.

then you'll have to bone up on your 'fortunes.'

here are some of the ones i'd use:

if you have to choose between two evils, choose the one you've never done before.

beware of keeping an open-mind ~ if it's too open your brains may fall out.

I'm drawing a blank here.

I think your brains are over here. Close it up, close it up!

and why do I keep talking about people's brains? jeez!

You gots more than one brain? I'm entertaining tonight. Care to share one of your friends for my guests?

In your case, Spooky, I think you've covered all the bases. Including selective memory.

Sometimes I come into Office Party and find there are threads that make absolutely no sense to me what their point was.

This is one of those.

And yet, it sucked you right in, huh?

I asked to borrow preyer's brain in another thread, so if he can make it we're good.

ETA: Oh! And there's a woman on our corner who sells brain tacos. I kid you not. From cows. We got them on accident once - barf.

I do believe he's lent it out to Dawno for the evening. Something about geeking a paranormal party. Whatever that means.

Did she wink first?

Ha! No. She was serving both regular beef (from the @ss or whatever) and brains and they got all mixed together. We tried to pick them out but it was so disgusting we gave them to the workers at our building. They loved it.

Another reason I don't live in Mexico.

I got inspired by this thread and just knocked out 800 words about gross things they eat here.

There's a crystal ball with a skull in it which they're selling in the Halloween section of my local Target store which says exactly that. Plagerist!

Selling fried brain sandwiches is like this delicacy around here. Not that I've ever tried them, but my grandparents love them. Nasty, nasty. I will not eat brains.

That's something I just do not understand.
