Wow..

Okay, I've got a few things to write about before I leave for Maryland. I don't have the time it takes this second, but I want to jot them down here so I don't forget:

I'm not leaving until Thursday morning, so will try to write it all before then.
1) brain explosions - which will horrify Grant because it resulted in him saying to me, "Did you really just blurt that out?" - which I could NOT have cared LESS about doing or saying.

I don't care what anyone says, there are just some points in life where you have to bottom line things with as few words as humanly possible to get the gist of what's going on across to the people you know don't really want to be at their jobs working anyway.

Again, he'll be horrified and probably fantasize about smothering me with a pillow in my sleep, but it's just too fucking funny to not write about. I'll take my chances.

2) family reunions - which include such things are full contact musical chairs, water-board/hippity hop jousting and a game called duck and cover in association with a box of fireworks. I hesitate to say anything more than that for fear of overwhelming and, well, quite frankly, scarring the shit out of you.

I'm easing you into it slowly.
Just ponder that thought for a minute.

3) multitasking - and why I think the study they did was a bunch of bullshit. As if they should base any kind of study on people that are between 20-22 years old as being the be all, end all of reasoning. You want to get a real study done on multitasking - poll a bunch of moms. So, really, you people at the American Psychological Association - bite me.

4) laws - and how my family views them as merely suggestions.

5) ponti mython - and his surprise visit, which was great! This will include a lively talk about urinal cakes, which had to be explained in great detail to me because I didn't have a clue what the fuck he and Grant were talking about. I thought they were kidding and/or making up shit.

6) poptatari - who I walked two blocks to go see and didn't know the he was someone I already knew. This also involves the breaking of cement blocks and kick ass cookies too.

7) goats - yes, I said it, goats (insert whatever fucking noise goats make here). I could also title this, "I have no idea why my cousin's wife hasn't poisoned him yet."

more to be added as I think of it...
