It's All How You Look at it

Yesterday tablelands posted a very insightful comment on my post about my kid going out in subzero in shorts and my cat vomiting in the fountain. I found it rather refreshing and inspiring, and I hope she doesn't mind my reposting it here for all to benefit from.
I believe these things give us benchmarks for life. You can think “Well at least… hasn’t ( Read more... )

That's the best philosophy ever. I have to remind myself that certain things do not matter at the end of the day, but most of the time I just end up ranting about it, anyway... =/

*snorfle!*

I threw up in my flute case once during a music lesson. I just remember frozen peas amidst the grossness!

Haha I remember that story!
I recall being sick down the bathroom sink and my mother saying "You didn't chew your chicken very well!"

I've told that story here before? I guess nothing is sacred.

ROFL! I remember the vomit/flute case story from one of your "post something you think no one else has done" discussions. I get motion sickness very easily and there are very few places that I have not been ill. (Flute case and photocopier not included).

Needless to say, that is a good way to look at life. Luckily for me, I do not have a fountain. ; )

tablelands is a lovely Aussie lady .

I was recovering from surgery on a broken wrist from a car crash and I think I had a cup of tea too soon. Just as my beaming Mum came into the room with a huge bunch of flowers from my workmates, I quickly grabbed a kidney dish and projectile vomited. It hit the dish straight at 90 miles per hour and went on the bed. It was just tea. But how distressing !. Soon fixed up. I never forgot it.

but wow, a photocopier !

a.k.a. 'Vomit stories can make you wiser'

1. You don't need to buy a photocopier.
2. Everything you have to do, do it with style.
3. Whenever you eat frozen peas, have a flute case at hand.
Or
4. Never eat frozen peas.
5. Waiting rooms are made to prove your courage, brace yourself before enter.
6. Chew your chicken well.

ROFLMAO!!
