Dumb Stuff That Keeps Me Distracted From Work

My dumb thought today:

While sitting at my desk I reach over and grab my fake Nalgene bottle and start chugging. Immediately I wonder what I look like while drinking this water from a jug that is about as large, if not slightly larger than my face.

The image that pops into mind is hard to describe with words. I will attempt to do so:

Lips taught but apart
Upper lip region not quite covering upper teeth (possibly similar to a baboon showing it's teeth to frighten you)
Tongue levitating inside mouth, not resting on teeth, or bottom of mouth, but hovering there in the middle.

The image is not pretty.. So I look around to see if anyone was watching me.

Phew.. no one was.

I decide to write this blog. In the process I google images that would help to show how ugly I think I might look while I drink water. I googled:

"people drinking water from a nalgene"
"people drinking"
"people drinking water"
"funny people drinking water"

Nothing came up besides an african lady drinking through a reed of some sort into a pool of water, water purifier pump things, nalgene bottles and a white rastafarian holding a glass of water.

I've officially wasted about 20 minutes writing this and it all started with a sip of water.

Curiouser and curiouser: An e-mail from my boss

I find the action and its contents fascinating, especially the bit about the telegraph machine.

Subject line: Tomorrow - A Limerick

"I'm sorry to cause you sorrow,
But I'll be working from home tomorrow.
Lilly's day care is closed
My wife could stay, I proposed,
But then she threatened to leave and take half my stuff because I do that to her all the time.

The last line needs work...

I will be on e-mail and cell, and am having Western Union install a telegraph machine in our computer room. "
