Life...sometimes

Just a few things on my mind:

1) Just earlier, I had the weirdest freakin internet experience in the world. I was reading through some blogs I normally go thru and I went to this one blog I read on occasion and the template seemed to have changed. So I read on and noticed that the links were all different, and the title also, the writing was SIMILAR(It was very grandoise in a very elegant and intelligent type of way). I checked the url address and it was still the same, so I'm thinking, "hmmm, maybe she just changed her template or something." I keep reading...dang it was so totally political, all these clippings and postings about the war, anti-semitism, referring to other people's blogs, dadadadada...I didn't realize until I saw, or read, that this person, whom at first I thought was the normal blog author, had only been blogging for three weeks...I was reading a totally different blog! TOTALLY different...so I clicked on the home page link and it brought me to the normal spot! I was like WTF?!?!?! What the hell was I just reading for the past 30+ minutes?!?!? So I thought about it for a while, and I was like, "I wonder who's blog that actually was," so I clicked on the back button on my browser window, and whattaya know, the freakin thing is totally gone...POOF! Just like that...as if it never happened...which totally sucks because I had just spent over half an hour reading something that I thought was updating, but will be pointless to look for because it'll probably take forever just finding it again...how weird. It's like when the phone sometimes crosses lines and you hear another person talking while you're talkin to a friend, or they can hear you, but the communication line is never open to both unintended parties...weird...internet crossover...

2) Who or what figures out the maximum capacity in a room? I mean, like when you're in a banquet room or something, and you see the "Max Capacity : 497 persons," sign, how the heck did they figure that out? Did they try to fit as many people as they could in there and say, "Oops, well that's it, only 497 people fit in here." Or is there like an safe average area for a human being so that: the area of the room/area of the avg human = Max # of people? Hmmm, this is an interesting topic on which I would like to do more research on....but any effort to do so would probably prove inconclusive and just a waste of my time...time I could be using to do bigger and better things, like sleeping...he he he...or finding a job....or something...

3) While at the dentist office w/ mom, pop and London, I was watching London playing w/ one of the other lil kids in the lobby. They were looking at the fish in the aquarium and they were touching the glass and their hands kept bumping into each other...and they didn't even care. Which made me think about how we sorta develop these kinda things about us as we get older...like if that happened to two adults...or, in my case...just older people(being that I don't ever think I'll truly be an adult), and they were complete strangers, they would get weirded out or feel somewhat uncomfortable, well at least I probably would, if their hands touched by accident. We kinda develop this sense of space thing, I don't know if it's institutionalized by society, or it's just innate, but whatever..., like a physical comfort zone of just how close someone can come to us physically, of course I'm speaking in a non-intimate sense here, before we through up the caution flag and put up our dukes... But whilst we are children, no such comfort zone exists, kids talk to each other like 2 inches apart from their face...it's such an air of innocence, it's almost admirable. I would like to see two adults accidentally reach for a doorknob or something at the same time and touch hands, and not freak out, just realize, "Oh they were trying to do the same exact thing that I was doing...nice." I think there would be more smiles in the world if things were like that...
