Hmmm...
Ever have someone say something that was so dumb that your brain stopped all function causing you to stand/sit there with your mouth open, eyes glazing over with a vacant expression on your face?OSL managed to make my brain lock up with this statement: "I don't drink and I don't do drugs anymore so my nails grow."
I nearly broke my neck whipping my head around to gaze at her. At that same moment every single thought process screeched to a halt causing my mouth to fall open. All nervous system synapses ceased fire allowing drool to drip from the corner of my mouth. My brain stopped because it wanted to figure this out but things weren't working.
Inside my head, my now stopped brain realized just how empty my head was. "Wow. This is a big empty place," it said. "I may die in here."
For how long I sat there, I don't know. I'm pretty sure I resembled the human equivilent of a computer locking up. The very center of my brain was a whirling mass of thoughts which was sucking all available energy. Whatdidshemean? DidIjusthearthatright? Wehavetofigurethisout.
Did she mean that if you do drugs, then stop that your nails will grow, but if you don't do drugs, your nails don't grow? Or if you start doing drugs do your nails stop growing? Or do your nails not grow until you start then stop drug use? And how does drinking factor in? What happens if you drink and do drugs? Or if you drink and don't do drugs? Or if you stop drinking but use drugs? Or stop both together? What about starting drinking if you stop drug use?
I must have looked totally shocked because Kelsey started laughing at my expression. Finally, I managed to wrench my mind away from that long enough to restart my system.
OSL must be deleted.
