(Pretend I am typing this... two or three weeks ago).
Today, I was bicycling to school, when I saw a very large puddle before me. Seriously- the puddle was very large. It stretched from one entire side of the street the other- and actually seeped past the sidewalks as well. And its length was as huge as its depth. But of course the only way to get to school was to cross the puddle WITH MY BIKE. (the thing is, that wasn't even true. I could have turned right as a detour, but my morning plan had been to go straight, and I really hadn't wanted to deviate). I thought, this will be a good idea. I'll just slowly go through the shallowest part.
Apparently, the puddle was actually a lake. As soon as I start, I am suddenly peddling in water, and my entire foot is soaked even though I my feet are still on the peddles and I can't go forward anymore, so I have to get off the bike as I cannot back peddle, so my entire foot is submerged and much of my leg is submerged in this disgusting lake. I had to abandon ship on the highground and run home to change. Shoes and pants. and socks.
But I got to school on time! I was fortunately only a block from my house.
(the old story is over, and now I am typing thoughts in real time!)
I saw Lars and the Real Girl. yes! And the previews told me that there is going to be a movie soon about a kid psychiatrist! yes!
And this is a potentially gross question, but as I'm pretty sure that only girls read this if anyone,
does anyone else have problems during their period of staining their underwear? And do most people actually count and track their periods? I think I have been actively trying to document it for a good 12 years and have never succeeded even for one month.
A housemate of mine bled for an entire month. She was ever so worried, but fortunately we do not think she has ovarian cancer or is going through menopause. It did make her ever so sleepy (Fe loss!)
I need to stop living so dangerously and download some antivirus software.
I forgot the most important thing to write.
For the purpose of this entry, spatulata= the utensil one uses to flip pancakes, turn omletts, flip hambergers, ect.
I really loathe plastic spatulas. They melt as soon as they touch the pan. They are clearly NOT meant for acutally touching hot surfaces, which is when they are most urgently needed. I inquired to Christen about them, and she supposed that they are meant for taking cookies off of a pan. If this is true, then WHY in an increasing number of kitchens that I encounter, do people ONLY stock the cheap plastic ones?! In Jason's kitchen, for example, they have four different types of cheap plastic spatulas, and not one acutal functional one. In all the dorm kitchens at school- worthless plastic. And at the campus organization houses too.
Massive education is needed.
Oh. Jason just told me that he thinks it is because of the temporary tephlon rage, since you can't use metal on tephlon.
shoot.
I hate you, tephlon. And people being cheap and not buying the special "tephlon approved spatula!"
