Coffee Table Declarations
Friday, May 14, 2004
 
The other day I had reason to matter-of-factly utter the following statement: "oh by the way, if there's ever a bug on me, don't say, 'there's a bug on you', just get the bug off me and then you can say 'there was a bug on you'." The phrase "there's a bug on you" must be one of the worst sentences to hear in the English language. I think we've all heard this once or twice and I know for me personally, the result is screaming and jumping up and down in order to shake (or scare) the bug off.

When interviewing potential roommates I have, in the past, been known to inquire how they feel about being woken up at random times during the night in order to kill a spider or to come home after a long day of work and dispose of a bug body that has been squished under a large book. After all, it's important that one of us can handle these unpleasant necessities of life.
 
Welcome to the coffee table of my mind.
