Things I have learned in the last 36 hours:
1) It is possible to spend eight hours playing a video game. Every time I play Guitar Hero III, I am reminded of the scene in Almost Famous where the guy jumps from the roof of the building and screams, “I am a golden god!” Nothing is more satisfying than being a god(dess) of rock and roll, even if it’s fake. I don’t care. It’s hard. And, seriously, Slayer? I hate them with a firey burning passion.
2) I hate mice. I haven’t seen any lately, but they are leaving droppings all over my kitchen. Yeah yeah yeah, we’re all God’s creatures. Terminix is coming out on Monday to help rectify the problem. I. Hate. Mice.
3) Babies ‘R’ Us is like the David’s Bridal of baby stuff. It’s vast, bright, overwhelming and just a wee bit scary. It’s even worse when you have no kids and yet are there buying a baby gate for the dogs. Incidentally? The First Years hands-free baby gate totally rocks.
4) A black sharpie can color over a tiny little bleach stain on a brand new black sweater after cleaning up mouse droppings in your kitchen.
It’s amazing the things life teaches us every day.
