Stumbling and spinning -- is this the result of a hangover, by any chance? Or is it symptomatic of the country's shock after this?.
Spinning "Darling," said the Queen setting down the newspaper, "there's a sale on: Rumplestiltskins are three-for-two." "Don't we have to pay them one child per hayrick they spin into gold?" "Yes," said the Queen, "but they're not fussy about the children, and a small war with, say, Humpty-Dumpty will result in a few thousand orphans." "I have been wanting a solid-gold set of kennels for the dogs," mused the King.
Tossing and turning all night long, My mind won’t stop spinning. From did I turn the iron off? To what is the meaning of life? ...All in the space of nanoseconds. Will you just Stop! Please? I’m human, I need my rest. The body is willing but the brain is in overdrive.
It’s worse than the snowboarding Olympians ... at least they have a reason for spinning.
Greg - I don't even need to hover over that link to know where it leads. It was definitely a surprise, but not as much of a shock as it would have been had NHL players been involved. As it was, bronze for that group was a pretty solid accomplishment.
Fun take on the prompt. And... I'm not sure that's a sale I'd want to take advantage of.
Dragonfly - I was spinning like this a few nights ago. Doesn't happen to me often but when it does it is misery incarnate.
Also: enjoyed the reference to the snowboarding Olympians :)
