So.
You ever do that thing where, you start saying something... and right in the middle of it, you realize "Holy shit! What the fuck am I saying?" But you don't want to end abruptly, and you kinda half-heartedly finish the sentence? Anyone out there?
So, Joelle's looking through this Rachael Ray ad insert thingie, and... well, this is what I caught myself saying. With ellipsis, so you know
exactly when I realized what the fuck I was saying...
"Stainless steel is classic, but yanno, I actually like the look of a colored kitchen... set."
And I admit this shit on the internet.

That happens to me more often than I want to admit. Could it have something to do with all the pot I smoked in college?

I do it ALL the time! Unfortunately, because I am so damn absent minded, I can think of a neither funny nor appropriate example. I liked colored kitchen...sets too!

Oh thank god! I thought I was alone. Yes, this kind of thing happens to me all the time and makes me wonder why anyone ever hangs out with me at all.
I blame the Scotch. (The alcohol, not the people.)

i don't do that as much as i completely forget what i was saying mid-sentence. it ends about the same way. "so then i said to her, 'you really should... uhm... yeah. you know.'"

Yeah, I do that, too. It's just a sinking feeling when you suddenly go, "I didn't really say that out loud did I?", but if you stop midsentence, it only makes it worse.

It happens to me more often than I'd like to admit. I'd love to blame it on all the drugs I did when I was younger, but I think I was like this before that.

Really? A classic kitchen set?
So... what size skirt do you wear, and how do you feel about pleats, you woman?

I do this too, except it's usually about something embarassing (and I forget to trail off half the time). Convo from the other night:
me: Maybe I do need a new mattress. Daniel [previous person who lived in my house] had copious amounts of sex on it, but I figure it couldn't be any worse than, say, a dorm room mattress or something in a hostel.
friend: well, at least in a hostel, people haven't had copious amounts of sex on the mattress.
me: Oh, I'm sure they have.
friend:no one has sex in a hostel!
me: I beg to differ. um, whoops. I didn't mean to divulge that :-o
