Here's MY sign...

There is a comedian out there that talks about people seeing their sign when they ask a dumb question or need the obvious stated...I thought of that today when I realized that I saw my sign and I really need to return to the workforce. On more than one occasion today I've actually spoken to objects. Not so much that I expected them to respond, because frankly I should be committed if I expect that, but just making comments..outloud..to stuff..yikes. I talked to the towels I had hung out on the line today when I was rushing to take them down as it started to rain. "hang on little towels, I'll get you down before you get wet..hahaha..you are already wet...maybe I should just leave you here...no, the neighbors will think I'm a nut..better take you down..(singing now) here we go off the line, into the house, into the dry...(talking again)..I should be a song writer." Then later, and I know I'm not alone on this one, when my computer wouldn't do something I'm sure I was very specific about, I talked to it, "come ON, just do what I told you to do and you won't be hurt!" Then, the winner of the day was just now, as I was getting ready to make dinner. I was putting some dishes away that included two coffee mugs and a wine glass (nice combo huh). I had all three in my hands and then realized..and said outloud "oh no little wine glass, you can stay out, I'll put you right over here and we'll see each other again shortly". Oh..my..oh my oh my oh my...really? I told my husband of the last "discussion" and he looked at me with absent eyes and said "wow". So, the moral of this humiliating story is that I need a job where I can talk to things..I mean adults...that will talk back. I need to use my brain for good. This is so embarassing but I know my father in law will get a huge kick out of it.
