Pebbles

I've found that I have a strange tendancy in MSN conversations. Some people's minds race faster than they can type, or even speak, and this is how they communicate. Disjointed, unrelated phrases come forth, and if the way of thinking is particularly alien to your own, it makes little sense.

But this isn't what I do, skipping stones across the lake of communication. If a new topic arises before another terminates, I branch it off, and begin interleaving dialogue between the two disparate branches. The people I find I enjoy talking to the most are the ones who can sort out from the context which messages belong to which idealogical branch...

Although I've yet to meet anyone who begins these branches on their own when talking to me. That would be an interesting day.
