Trivial rambling

Nothing wonderfully exciting has happened to me today, except for maybe sleeping 'til 11:30 (aaaahhhhhhh...), so here's just a few random things...
One of my new favorite pastimes is going into Yankee Candles at the mall and reading each description of the scents they have. I've always been intrigued by the sense of smell, and how hard it is to describe smells, so reading their attempts at it is funny. It goes from things like "A manly, dark scent with hints of bergamot, musk, and sandalwood" to "A bright floral scent with lemongrass, jasmine, and sage" to "The warm home-baked smell of fresh cinnamon rolls". I don't know. I think it's cool. So, yeah...this all just goes to show how much of a life I have. I think it would be really cool to be in charge of writing those descriptions. That, or naming shades of lipstick. Seriously, my friends and I were at Target a while back, and we were incredulous at the utter ridiculousness at some of the names: "Sensual Sanguin", "Berry Blushed", "Mad Amythyst", "Cocoa Nights"....It was fairly silly. I think they give those kind of jobs to people in the psych ward. And don't ask me how I remember all of this...I have a highly selective memory. While I can remember exactly what the room in which I got my kindergarten shots looked like, I fail to recall what my geometry homework assignment was. I can remember the Preamble to the constitution that we had to memorize in 8th grade, I can remember the song we had to sing every day in 1st grade, I can go through my old house in my head. I cannot, however, remember my phone number (see, we got rid of our land line, then got it back, and I never bothered to memorize the land line number since we have 3 cell phones...no matter, though, I can always ask Brian what it is... o_0)
Anyways, that's that. It would be really cool to have a photographic memory... in 7th grade our Quizbowl team had to compete against this team that had a guy with one, and...well, let's just say that Kathryn and I are still very bitter. Veeeerry bitter...(*snarl*)
La La La Dee Dah...so now I'm babysitting the little urchins, ahm, I mean siblings, and I need to go clean my room...and pack for Bretsy's sleepover...
Arrivederci!
