| Boredom Patterns In The Wallpaper
Does anyone else ever find themself so bored they just stare at a wall and start imagining intricate connect-the-dots patterns in the wallpaper pattern.
I managed to see a little satyr in the wallpaper next to my computer earlier today (I was supposed to be writing an English paper).

| The last time I had to write about something I wasn't interested in I discovered I could mimic (at least to my ears) a lot of the sounds of the jungle.

| I do that all the time! I see faces and crap in the walls around me...
Once, when I was in ballet class a few years ago, I'd always take the same place at the barre because there was a little face in the stucco that I always liked to look at.

| I love finding little things like that. Then again I have some bad ADD sometimes.

| I also find faces in the wall paper while doing footwork. I know its time for a glass of water when the faces start talking to each other.

| I see things in the walls... but I see things in the floor as well. I have loads of freckles on my body so when I was in public school my friends and I would connect them to make pictures, we came up with some really cool images.
