There may be a better mathematical method, but I suppose I would start with the loc of the screen and add some small random offsets to the loc. Then at random times when the loc is calculated, I would add some major offsets to the center loc. In this way, the center loc is always favored. Of course, I don't know how you're going about the calcs, so this may not work for your situation.
