What Did We Learn Today/Tonight
September 30th, 2006 by rsm
- Two glowing eyes darting up and down in the pitch black woods: a deer. Two eyes moving side to side in the woods: probably a bear.
- When someone starts yelling, you can try to listen for the underlying message behind the voice, or shut them the f- out if they can’t figure out how to behave. Either way, their lack of self-control means you are now in control.
- If it’s 45° out at night and you sleep with the windows open, 130 lb. dogs MIGHT force their way into your bed.
- Even if we don’t switch to metric, it’s time we accept there is no reason for us to continue to abbreviate pounds as lbs. There are better ways of pissing off the French.
- 6 am phone calls: could be an emergency, you live on the West Coast, or your buddy in Iraq is messing with you.
- Fall means the leaves change to golden and fiery hues in the mountains. Your friend in Iraq notes the palm tree leaves are a little darker brown than they were last week.
- People with PhDs are always quick to offer an idea or waste time on a non-issue, but can almost never come up with a practical solution.
- Yoga will make you sweat, and put you right to sleep.
- When your older friend has had recent surgery fusing 4 of his vertebrae together, bringing home your videotape of a human cadaver’s neck dissection is NOT good clean fun.
Ohhhh I hope you can post some “leaves” pictures. I just love fall in the mountains!!
And that bear thing? yeah – YIKES!!!!!
Sounds like you learned a lot!
So … how can I get a copy of that dissection video?
Oh, and I had a really good reason for yelling, dammit.
Besides, I didn’t think you could hear me that far South. I thought I was just yelling in your general direction, not AT your general direction
2 sounds a lot like what my partner would say as well. You two would get along well, one suspects.
6 am phone calls are messing with you? Sheesh! I usually get calls around 1 am (which I did last night, in fact) “just to say hi.” Not that I’m complaining that I’m being thought of. It ’s just that I’d like to be thought of a little bit harder BEFORE the phone call sometimes. Ha!
