Seat me next to the quiet starer, please

Story-time

I love to talk, but you don't have to listen. When I say to someone, "Have a minute?" they pull out a chair. My friends, and anyone whose been caught by that line before, knows what is coming. I've got a story to tell. I come from a family of people who "passed the time" by story-telling. I think some of the most mundate moments in life can be quite interesting if viewed from a different spectrum.
Bet that's why my husband gave me a dog last year. His ears needed the break!
