Being committed to lifelong learning is critical to sucess, so here is what I've learned this weekend:
If you are going to buy an assortment of greenery to display on your coffee table, and the assortment includes eucalyptus, you had better be prepared for your sinuses to drain.
Incessantly.

New Name???
On discovering a second occurance of having left a Coke in the freezer and forgetting about it until after it exploded, I'm seriously considering changing the name of this blog to "Airhead Update". The worst part is I cannot remember for the life of me if I put it in there yesterday or this morning.

The post that wasn't...
This was going to be a terrific girl power post about how I changed a flat tire all by myself this weekend, but alas it was not meant to be.
I still think I could have done it had I been toting around a four foot piece of pipe for the express use of breaking lug nuts in case of emergency. I had the car jacked up, the wheels chocked with rocks scavanged from the edge of the parking lot I pulled into when the car started vibrating in the most frightening manner. I was all proud of myself as I slid the tire iron over the first lug nut, only to find the thing was more stubborn than me.
But my survival skills are strong, and I was lucky enough to locate someone who knew someone else who just happened to be close to where I was stranded. Soon after two angels in disguise arrived, having left the comfort of their homes where they were listening to Tennessee loose soundly to I don't remember who. One of the angels happened to be a retired service station attendant, who declared in 20 years of changing tires he'd never seen lug nuts so tight. He left and returned a few minutes later with a pipe he affectionately referred to as "The Persuader". A few minutes later, spare tire installed and blown out tire stowed in the trunk I was on my way to the tire shop for a new one. In a stroke of genius I decided to get the oil changed at the same time, and lucky for me I thought of it because the car that hadn't burned a drop of oil in the three years I'd owned it turned out to be very very very extreemely low on oil.
So instead of it not being a post on how I changed a tire all by myself it is the post on how I'm not suddenly in the market for a car.

How do you plead?
"Only pretending, Your Honor".
Just think of the uses for the new "Not guilty because I was only pretending" defense. Good grief, if God made you gay, just be gay.
