Exhaustion setting in

Here are the facts:
My apartment is entirely packed, in preparation for this weekend's big move.
I can't find a pen.
I want to remember something that randomly popped into my head.
My blog is open.
I'm going to share it with you and give you a glimpse inside my mind:

"Robot food for technological thought."

I feel like we know each other better already! Sharing is caring!

I have no idea why that sentence ran through my mind, but for some reason I think I'd like to do something with it. My brain might be telling me to corner the market now, so that I'll be the biggest wholesale distributor of robot food in 50 years. Entrepreneurism! Or, maybe, I could use it as a prompt for a short story (after November is over).

If you have any suggestions, let me know!

Potential Robot Food?

As I was labeling this post, I realized that it is not my first about robots. There was also that song about Odysseus (aka Ulysses) and his small robot friend. Maybe somewhere in my subconscious working on my blog reminded me of that? I'm not sure we'll ever know for sure.

Ulysseee-eee-eees

I should be sleeping, but I'm addicted to http://unhear.it/.

I have now had the pleasure of hearing not only the "Bed Intruder" auto-tuned song, but also the theme song for a 1980's cartoon entitled Ulysses 31.

"Ulysses, Ulysses, soaring through all the galaxies, in search of Earth, flying into the night!
Ulysses, Ulysses, fighting evil and tyranny with all his heart and with all of his might!
Ulysseee-eee-eees, no-one else can do the things you do!
Ulysseee-eee-eees, like a bolt of thunder from the blue!
Ulysseee-eee-eees, always fighting all the evil forces, bringing peace and justice to all!

It's me Nono, small robot you know, friend of Ulysses!
It's me Nono, small robot you know, friend of Ulysses!"


 A small robot friend?! The Odyssey Cliff Notes sucked! I don't remember Nono at all. But I got pretty bored after he spent all that time with Calypso.


Expert Tip: If the 'New Song' button is giving you problems, refresh the page. After my ninth song (which I needed to get that eigth song out of my head, which helped with that catchy seventh song), I started to have some trouble.
