Finding out that you did or said something previously but were unaware of it until it was brought up can be a good thing. At work, this guy will tell people the different languages we have our audio players in and whenever he approaches someone from England he'll say, "Don't worry, we have this in the Queen's English." This made me giggle, so I said it once and was like, "Sorry, I had to use the line at least once." Then he said, "I got it from you..." and I went, "Awesome..." It's like watching a movie that plays backwards and has a neat twist in it, only the twist is your life playing forwards?
I think all foods should come with a scratch and sniff sticker on them to let you know what you're getting.
Get this, liquid handsoap works so much better if you put it on before getting your hands wet! I just tried this four or five days ago and haven't looked back to wetting the hands first. I guess bar soap gets you into the habit of wet and then apply, and maybe kids are taught that way, but if you wet and then add the liquid, give this a shot... it'll blow your mind.
I've been sick the past couple of days, and today I'm in sneezetown, which is fantastic. I love the feeling of a sneeze that is just lingering in your head; it's such a bizarre rush. Then the sneeze itself is a powerful feeling of goodness as well. Though yesterday I was in runny/clogged nose which makes your hearing worse-ville. It's strange when this happens, you blow your nose and your hearing alters, it's a fun little trick. The human body is wild...
December is almost over, which means a new year is starting. That being said, I don't like the idea of New Year's resolutions or things of that nature. Why would you start something that benefits you later than now? I guess some people need the motivation.
Hanging out with new people is pretty great.
And now for some politics:
Al Franken, I love you.

| A little beard heavy... |
[11 Dec 2009|12:36pm] |
I've grown a beard in the past two weeks, who knows how long it'll last. The idea behind it is that when I student teach in a high school, I don't look like I'm 13. Though there are some notable good and bad things to be attributed to the beard.
+ Random Tastings on my mustache At any point during the day I can lick my mustache and be guaranteed a new flavor. It's always a surprise, but something that usually tastes delicious. It's my own little Bertie Bott's location.
- I'm a messy eater Now a beard and mustache can just absorb what you eat and make you realize that you are in fact a really messy eater, fortunately for me I already knew this. Though there are times where a roommate will be like, "you've got milk running down your chin." and it'll be about twenty minutes after having been near milk, so naturally I'll be like, "yeah right..." but then I'll feel it. Which means I have curdled milk in my beard, which can also be a unique flavor. (see above)
-Scrathin I love to scratch my face apparently. When one doesn't have a beard, it's not that big of a deal. When one has a beard, you have to be careful how long you scratch it for, for anything more than two seconds makes you look mangy, or so I've been told. Then again, I do need to scratch a little harder to get to the itch, so that probably doesn't help the way I look when I scratch it.
+mustache in hiding I can stroke my mustache whenever I like.
I figure I'll just eventually get tired of it and shave it off, that's what usually happens.
I like seeing people who have spilled something on their shirt and have attempted to remove it with water, so what ends up occurring is a huge water spot highlighting their mess. This is also a dilemma if you have a mark near your crotch, do you use water to try and remove it and become an instant pee your pants joke, or do you just leave the little blemish? I personally just leave blemishes be and hope for the best in the washer.
I work in a museum, in which people often times try to talk on their cellphones within. I'm sure this happens in libraries too, but people need to realize that it's rude and not accepted. People are becoming oblivious to rules. I like though when I see someone on their cellphone and you say to them, "You can't be on that in here, sorry." and their immediate reaction is to put their hand up over their cellphone, like you don't know it's there. Sorry, that slick maneuver didn't work when you were four and it certainly won't work now...
If I could go back in time and be an ace writer for action movies in the 80s, I'd be happy as shit. If you ever watch the 80s action movies starring Arnold, you'll be flushed with the best quotes ever. I feel like they made quotes and then structured a movie around them. One of my quotes would be this. The action hero has his gun in a guys mouth and the guy is mumbling to say something, then the action hero says, "Didn't your mother ever teach not to talk with your mouth full..." and then he shoots the guy. OH I CAN DREAM <3 <3 <3 If anyone reads this, what would your quotes be? Set up the situation. I'm sure I'll get maybe one response to this, so make it a good one?

Always when I am with Luc I will have the most awkward conversations with cashiers...always.
At Best Buy, I was getting ready to check out, and I go through their maze and start to walk to the cashier who called me over. I get to the cashier to hear this.
Cashier: You don't want to spend money, that's why you were walking like a penguin, huh? Me: ...totally...
The problem was that I don't think I was trying to walk any differently...
Second event that occurred
Luc and I go into a Verizon store, Luc being interested in inquiring about the Droid. We're in the store for several minutes, one employee helping a customer, the other looking at football scores. The guy finally realizes we are in the store so Luc asks about getting a Droid. Here is the conversation. Luc: I'm getting a credit in January, but is there anything you can do for me now? Sales Guy: Well you'll have to wait to get the credit. Luc: Is there a better deal if I get it now or wait till then? Sales Guy: Well it's up to you, there's no difference. Luc: How much would it be if I bought it now? Sales Guy: $199 Luc: How much would it be if I bought it in January? Sales Guy: $99 Luc: I'll wait till January. (Walking out) Bobby: There was a clear difference...
I've been catching myself talking to myself more and more lately, though truthfully I think it's as normal of a rate as its always been. There are times when I am at work where I'll be talking to myself and I'll think, "Man, I'm happy no one is watching me because I'd look crazy..." Then I look around and see a coworker looking at me and I go, "crap..."
It's disappointing when you hear someone say, "that's what she said" but they mean it. Me: Do you have your ticket, they should have said to keep it out. lady: Oh yeah, that's what she said. Me: ...
