These are the ramblings of a young married couple in the great City of Chicago.


This Post Checks Off a Task

Sunday, 4 November 2007 by Jacob Tomaw

…just like everything else I do.

I am latecomer to Scott Adams’ Dilbert Blog. I am reading the recent post and came across this post about being spontaneous.

As you know, you can fake most character traits if you need to. You can fake sincerity, kindness, compassion, optimism, and all sorts of things. But you can’t fake spontaneity. I know because I’ve tried, and it always comes out sounding crazy. I’ll blurt out something like “Let’s walk to Cuba,” and look at my wife to see if I nailed the spontaneous thing. So far, no luck. It’s an elusive concept.

I love learning that I am not alone. For me, it confirms that I am normal and you all are strange.
