Anyone have any amusing stories?

I cant keep my foot still. Ever. It's always moving. I get very stressed when people make me stop. As a result of this, it is my 2 cats favorite toy/prey. Great to attack all day, even better when it's under the blankets at night. Lousy way to be woken up. ;) Pity I hate wearing shoes. :p

Anyone else have minor amusing inconveniences?

Not inconvenient, but amusing: I was once rocking at a concert, and I was in the front row, and realized the drummer was staring straight at me. I varied my speed and then she varied hers. So she was using me as a metronome.

That's awesome! :lol:

I'm sure everyone who leg bounces has been through this, but when i'm anywhere with my mom and sitting next to here when my leg bounces she puts her hand on my knee to stop it and it stops, but as soon as she takes her hand away it starts up again... now this usualy takes place in church, and we both sit there trying not to giggle about it.

I walk into a lot of doorways :)

Other than that, I can't really think of anything that would be amusing right now. Maybe I'll think of one later.

My mom does it when I am driving. Car is automatic so my left leg is free... so it moves... lots. She puts hand on knee, as it apparently stresses her, and while she is holding it down, I get stressed, as I do it to relax!
