Babs: She Types Like She Talks, Yeah?
To give you an idea of what Babs is like, as a sister, friend and someone who I love to bits, here's an email I got from her the other day. This Mail has been copied and pasted, with no changes at all:
Howdy Dudey!I am SO bored today, Trishbags is off sick still with some bizarro viral infection jazzaroonie, ew and also scary, she has to go and get blood tests, I am bonnixed from swimming, and also scared that she will make me go into the lane swimming thingymajigaroonie boonie, my chest hurts cause I have a classic Verso spot and no can understand the pain!! I squished myself last night in yoga-toga, I think I mashed my ribs together trying to do that lift up thingy majig, my teacher Ciara told me that I should do some abdominal exercises (?) at home to build up my ?core? and then I can move onto the next level you know like ? a woohoo! Although I am a bit scared of that too, I was thinking of maybe joining the gym but that?s far too boring so have decided against it for the moment, I am SO tired too, felt like I had about 2 hours sleep last night, when in fact I had about 7 ? I am DEFFO going to bed dead early tonight, if I have any choice, that is, I am hoping to be there by at the most 10 o?clock but I just always seem to have SO much to do, crazy town tacular. You know me and the way that I type the way I speak, can you actually hear my voice in your head talking it all out or what, you have a crazy imagination but not as crazy as me, I think I win in the Krazy Kat Kompetition!! I just feel totally drained like I should go to bed or summat, either drained or like I want to explode into hyperactivity, I find it hard at times to decipher which one it is! I am going to Deftones gig tomorrow night in the Ambassador I think, I hope, I have to call Daddio the hero dude father, so that should be good then its dead as a dodo on Saturday I am not doing anything at all, apart from maybe having a stroll on the ?beach? I need a total restamundo day you know what I mean? My whole body feels wrecked, I wanted to make cookies tonight but I think I might be just a little bit wrecked and I cant even think of anything to have for dinner, and I am going over to Trish?s gaff for a while after work, groan!!
Ok I am going to sign off from my rant face!! I am sure that you might be bored, get me a surprise or something, hope that the gaffaroonie is all swell and that, have you slept there yet, whats the bleedin jazz man?
Peace and Love Turtle Dove!
XOXOX
Now, imagine talking to her, every other day, and trying to get a word in edgewise (only messin', as I said before, I love her to bits!).

This is what we call in the office "stream of concious" emails.

is that a good thing or a bad thing, the stream of conscious thingy and also the wow thing. BTW: I didn't get to bed until 1am cause my roomdawg came home and enticed me into drinking some rocket juice (Tia Maria, Baileys, and milk with loadsa crushed ice) as he said it would make me sleep well, meanwhile him and his bro drank vodka and a pretend red bull called "Kick" the word "kick" was uttered about 5 billion times by the two of them as they were hyper scniper, scary mc mary! :P

Adrian, that may be what's known as a 'stream of conciousness' email, but what's it called when someone constantly types (and TALKS) like that?
(see Babs comment for example...)

The WOW was more shocked amazement and awe at witnessing someones brain churning.....

No, no, most people's brains churn. Babs' gushes forth a torrent of information which may or may not be related to the subject at hand.
(once more, see Babs' comment for an example)

LEAVE ME LONELY!!! You are a very mean big brother! But I suppose you are still the best big brother in the world (kinda!) :P

I feel physically drained after reading that. Roger Rabit comes to mind... "I can give you stars, look! (hits himself with a frying pan) LOOK! (hits himself again) LOOOOOOOOOOOOOK! (keeps hitting himself)"
