ThE wEEk's LEaRniNgs

  1. How I Met Your Mother is my new favorite show (yes, I realize I'm late to that party). I laugh out loud during every episode.
  2. Buffalo Chicken Pizza??? HO. LY. SHIT. is that ever delicious. I'm going to try out a few recipes of my own. I'll keep you posted.
  3. Don't punch windows.
  4. Parties that consist of beer, yahtzee and sex world prizes are pretty rad.
  5. Bea Arthur - oh how I will miss you. At least you live on on Lifetime. And Hallmark.

a FLy oN tHe WaLL

I would love to be a fly on the wall during an all guy conversation. The more and more I listen to girls have conversations, it's totally intriguing me. If I guy were a (blind) fly on the wall in the girls locker room at the gym for instance, I think they would totally roll their eyes. Most of those conversations revolve around makeup, hair, food, calories and shopping. Then take a girls' conversation that's more intimate. Giving each other advice or telling stories with all the details being included. Talking about boys and justifying why they did this or that. Etc. etc. Either way, without boys around, conversations are often times way different. So I wonder what guys talk about when there are no girls around. Us girls assume it's always superficial, whether it be about sports, food, hot chicks, burping, etc. Maybe that's their locker room conversation. But do they have the same sort of intimate conversations? Do they give each other advice and talk about real situations in their life or do they just keep it all to themselves. I'm sure it's not so black and white and everyone is different but I'm thinking more and more I should have been an anthropologist.

tRoGGLEs


Oh how I miss Word Munchers & Number Munchers. I used to dominate those troggles. Sadly, most people don't even know what I'm talking about. Must have been another luxury Chaska had that other schools didn't. Ha. But they were one of the few educational games I loooooooooved. That and Oregon Trail, of course. But I didn't wise up and stop being the banker until the end of my Oregon Trail career.
