The Output of My Random Mind

There are times that I feel as if my mind will never produce anything productive or worth saying (This is one of those times). There are many circumstances where I feel as if my contributing to a conversation won't be anything but a sudden roadblock in the fluidity of a discussion. I am more of the type that stands (or sits) back, listens, and absorbs what is being said. I gain much valuable - and interesting - information this way.

Once in a while I feel an odd iota of inspiration and I add a bit of flavor to the conversation...usually way off topic. My mind runs in many different directions, and I'm lucky if I can stay on topic for an entire paragraph - or conversation for that matter. Oftentimes, I find that I have a very interesting story to tell, but by the time everybody else has stopped talking long enough to listen, I have forgotten what exactly I was going to say...actually that happens more often than not. Just ask any of my friends from high school. I'd start off by saying "Guess what?" and when I went on to tell the rest, I'd end up with "I forget" (Which one person in particular found quite hilarious).

Once again, I am finding that whenever I have something I want to say, when it's all said there's not really a point, so I guess I'll just end here. :)
