Gretchen Rubin lists seven fall-over-dead boring topics (when other people talk about them):

1. A dream.
2. The recent changes in your child’s nap schedule.
3. The route you took to get here.
4. An excellent meal you once had at a restaurant.
5. The latest additions to your wine cellar.
6. An account of your last golf game.
7. The plot of a movie, play, or movie—in particular, the funny parts.

 [8.  Your favorite music videos
  9.  Your favorite movies
10.  Your favorite TV shows.]

I add:  weather, hobbies, exercise routines, and diets.   What conversations fill you with despair?

Things you learn at the movies

I told you all about 49¢ day at Blockbuster, and how the clerks are all "Wow!  You're going to have a Twilight movie marathon tonight because ripping movies onto your computer is not legal!" and how we smile and nod, because ripping movies onto your computer is not legal (Blockbuster clerks make killer copyright lawyers).   They probably caught the moue of misery on my face and assumed I was already a huge Bella fan.  We're totally Team Jacob, which I never knew was a thing until Annie told me.

I tricked Annie into sightseeing yesterday.  Tricked = badgered.  I tricked her down to Micanopy, then I tricked her back into Gainesville to the Museum of Natural History.  On a nicer day, I could have tricked her into the Butterfly Rainforest, but it's outdoors, y'all.
