hitchingpost's blog: "Examples of my naivety"

I'll squelch any rumors about us, if you give me the time of day. This will be NECESSARY ALMOST ALL THE TIME BECAUSE -- ALTHOUGH A MATHEMATICIAN, I HAVE FROM EARLY AGE BEEN UNABLE TO KEEP TRACK OF MANY TIME ORIENTED THINGS, E.G. IS IT THE WEEKEND, SO I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO SCHOOL TODAY? LOL. I can't convert time for chatting with ladies on the internet -- I just ask how many hours from now do you want to chat again ? I HAVE TO USE A WATCH, SO I HOPE IT DOESN'T BREAK. ALL THE CLOCKS KEEP KONKING OUT, SO IT CAN'T GET AN ALARM WARNING OR WAKE UP CALL. I HATE CALENDARS BECAUSE I CAN'T REMEMBER WHERE THEY ARE OR DON'T WANT THEM TO USE UP SO MUCH SPACE ON THE WALL. So I need an executive secretary to schedule everything for me and tell me what to do ? WILL YOU PLEASE ? LOL.

My aunt Vera Mae teased me once when I was visiting her house. She told this story a lot thereafter and got a lot of fun out of it, because I was so gullible. What she did was I was sitting out on the porch waiting for supper and she came out and convinced me that I had already eaten. I had a pathetic look on my face and I don't remember if she let me eat or not. It was her home after all.
