Have you ever...?

[Ozymandias]

Have you ever... lacked ideas on what you might have done that's not common ?

Actually, many of the things I've done (as listed in here) are *quite* common. I've just been working very hard with every one of these posts to phrase them as strangely/esotericly as possible.

 

The rest, yeah. Just odd. :>)

Have you ever been so mentally and emotionally bogged down, that you climb into the *shower* and lie down, only to start feeling better minutes later when you realize the wonderfullly obscene noises you can make with the suction your back makes in the pooling water under you?

Actually...Yes, yes I have.

Except...It wasn't due to being bogged down, it was just plain fun.

 

Now...Have you ever heard a skunk sneeze?

Read my latest post in the banquet room. No suction though, but my bathtub does double as a shower basin, however sitting in it with just the shower running is quite awkward at times 0_o

 

Have you ever had a rabbit stand on it's hind-legs, to be able to reach over your hips when you're standing up?

Have you ever been ~6'4" when that happened?

Have you ever seen a sunset of pure gold, so that the sun and clouds disappeared, but the sky was gold, and lit everything around for a hundreds of miles in pure golden light?

[Ayshela]

Have you ever taken a step and felt your shinbone move?

[Sparhawk]

Have you ever jumped into the water fully dressed in your street clothes?

It's a requirement in Swimming Lessons and Lifegaurd training, so yes I have.

 

 

Have you ever seen someone commit a horrible mistake which you knew they would later regret, but been powerless to influence their decision?

Maybe not a horrible mistake... but I've watched the girl I like get on the rebound with an ex-boyfriend... and I was pretty much powerless to stop that...

 

 

 

have you ever wanted so, so much for someone to be there with you, in contact with you, that it became an actual, physical ache?

You have no idea how much I've felt this one...

Well no, I haven't but you have no idea how much I want to...

[cryptomancer]

Have you ever made fire from a can of coke and a bar of chocolate?

Bodies:

 

Have you ever spun yourself to a new level of consciousness?

[Appy]

Just a few for now.

 

Have you ever woken up, wishing that you were still in your dream, because your life in it was magnitudes better than the one you have in the real world?

 

Have you ever had a friend crying in your arms and not had a single intelligent thing to say?

 

geekness warning!

 

Have you ever taken a laptop apart, looking for the RAM inside of it, just to find that it was in the last possible place you could look (that is under the keyboard...)

 

Have you ever actually lost your room keys right next to the table? (university dorm)

 

Done above twice in the same week?

 

Have you ever helped take a drunk friend back to his room, and then went to get his laundry because he was in no state to do so?

[Savage Dragon]

Have you ever stolen a 10 gallon container of ice cream from an abandoned resteruant only to discover the ice cream was 6 months old and spoiled?

 

Have you ever had your father look you in the face, tell you he's Superman, and then precede to break the ceiling light when he "flys" up into it?

 

Have you ever had a helicopter out looking for you?

 

Have you ever gone back and edited a post twice because you thought of something you HAD to add?

 

Have you ever had a person look you in the eye and tell you that they were an angel?

 

Have you ever walked into a Borders in a crappy mood, accidently knocked a CD off the shelf, cuss, and then smile and feel better because its one of your favortie CDs?

[Guest Phoenix]

have you ever felt like you were (at least) two completely different people? and then realized you didn't like either of them?

 

realized that the way you thought you thought about yourself was completely innacurate? and you thought a lot less of yourself than you thought?

 

*rereads*

gah my brain hurts..

 

 

been so utterly angry that you can't sleep or think or stop moving? and not been able to get to the root of what you're so furious about?

 

 

felt so utterly beneath worth that you couldn't understand how someone would want to be with you?

and somehow been fine with this?

 

 

have you ever been told so many different ways to "fix" your life you couldn't bear listening any more, yet somehow be flattered they cared enough to try?

 

 

have you ever had the one person who you could just be broken with start to try and fix you, and felt betrayed beyond all reason?

 

have you ever laughed so long and hard from sheer exhaustion your boss asked if he could have what you were having?

 

have you ever spent months trying to discover why you found it so hard to trust people, felt like you were going crazy, and been proved right all over again?

 

and had that be the reason for you to want to learn to trust?

 

 

 

Its strange how being wrong so many times can make you want to try harder to be right

 

being broken for so long can make not being broken so much more beautiful

 

being without for so long can make moments of connection seem to last for hours

 

being able to wake up early and watch the sunrise can be the most blessed thing in the world

 

and not wanting to move and break the moment to get your camera can make it even more beautiful..

[Xaious, Master of Time]

Have you ever had a dream, and then three years later have another dream that started as the middle of the first dream, and continued the story?
