The Good, The Bad, and The Yummy
My whole life I've disliked avocados and guacamole. I have heard nothing from people other then how crazy I am for this dislike, Then all of a sudden within the last few months I have found that I love them and they taste great. This is very strange indeed. I remember the taste of them when I didn't like them and the taste now and it is the same but now it registers as scrumptious in my head. I think someone replace my tongue in the middle of the night. Now excuse me while I go eat my life times worth of missed guacamole.

Detective Work
I was at a table today with 4 other people. Person 1 asks person 2 to photograph a small object at a few different angles and print out the photos. Person 2 comes back with the photo printouts. Person 1 looks at them and is confused by why the objects are much bigger in the photos then in real life. Everyone agrees that it is odd, and they need to be resized. I finally say "That is just how a camera works, you want a photocopy if you want to retain the same size of an object not a photo." Everyone looks confused and asks why that is. I explain "Well, if I took a photo of you and printed it out it wouldn't necessarily be the same size as you." Everyone understands and agrees that I am very smart. I now want to use this story in my resume as proof of my problem solving skills.

Ride the Waves and Don't Ask Where they Go
It has been a tough day where the bad economy has finally reared its ugly head at work. I won't get into details here but I'm very unsure about my future right now. I tried to work it off at the gym but only managed a half hour before I admitted I just wasn't in the mood. On my drive home I witnessed the very resent aftermath of two different horrible car accidents. So, that is where life is right now.

On Vacation
Lindsey let me barrow her very wonderful book "Vacation" by Deb Olin Unferth. I was looking up the name of the author on-line and came across this very strange animated book trailer voiced by Maria Bamford.
Peace of Mind
I was going this doodle the other day and started to think that I should really try doing yoga again, I haven't in about 2 years. I remember feeling so at peace when I did it before and I could really use some calm and peace in my head right now. I took a class at my gym on Tuesday night. I couldn't do anything I remember being able to do before. I felt like a big blob and as stiff as a board all at once. It wasn't a very good class either and I didn't end up feeling anything when I left. I would like to find a class that gives me a good mental and physical workout. It really isn't in my budget to pay for classes though. Maybe I will check out some other yoga classes at other LA Fitnesses.

If that's Fat then Color Me a Chubby Chaser
I got in an argument with someone at work today. We here talking about the movie The Duchess ad how much we hated Ralph Fiennes character. Only the person I was talking with said she couldn't understand why his character would rather be with his fat mistress. My mouth was agape. I couldn't believe she was calling this actress fat but I guess anyone looks fat next to Keira Knightley. This went back ad forth for awhile. BLAH!!! I was so annoyed. Let us take a look at what is suppose to be fat and what is suppose to be ideal. I'm not saying Keira is not beautiful, she very much is but to say that the other actress is fat and couldn't understand why a man would want to be with her is just ridiculous.
