The Crazy Valve

     Ok, I'm tired and it's been a helluva week.  So this one is going to be another copy/paste of something I wrote before the challenge began.  Bear with me, you'll enjoy it.

     (September-16-2013) Earlier today, I had an actual conversation with my mom via txt message.  I was feeling kinda weird, and just needed to 'let the crazy out' for a sec.  And my mom, bless her, didn't miss a beat.  Here is a transcript of the whole thing:

     Me- Sometimes I'm afraid I might be crazy.  Then I remember that nine is bigger than purple and I stop worrying.

     Mom- As long as you realize that green is much larger than 9.

     Me- Maybe so, but eggplant is more powerful than both of them put together.

     Mom- True.  True.

     I love my mom!

     You see, I'm a storyteller.  A very creative person, by nature, and sometimes I go way too long without a creative outlet.  I call this "Letting the crazy build up".  When that happens I have to relieve the pressure somehow.  I've been known to wander around the house singing showtunes and/or Christmas carols while doing different impressions.  Including, but not limited to: Kermit The Frog, Ray Charles, Mike Tyson, Barney (Rubble & The Dinosaur), Christopher Walken, Big Bird, and Jar Jar Binks.

     Hmmm...  I may have to record some truly weird music in the future...

     Anyway, I let some crazy out at my mom and she just let some of her own out in response.  It was glorious, and hilarious.  So Thanks, Mom.  It may be four months late, but thank you for knowing the proper way to handle my crazy.

     Goodnight, everybody!
