- I can look it up everyday and still wonder how to spell the word ”occasion”;
- It takes six hours for an office full of adults passing a box of Girl Scout “Thin Mints” to consume the whole thing;
- If you once ran at the gym for hours on end you can be “the lady who can run forever” even if you haven’t been to the gym in a while and even if all you do now is walk;
- I have a friend who really, really identifies with penguins and I’m disturbed by this; and
- Bad news does seem to come in sets of three, I’ve had two fairly close pieces of bad news this week, wonder what’s next.
