Xeroxing this to my brain.

I learned that:
Primer is a fantastic movie.

The show I'm in is going to suck monster ass and I dissuade anyone Mecha from seeing it. This is the first production I've ever said that about.

I'm sure it'll be better than you think, LT. And even if not, I bet you'll be great :-D

I learned that a lazy weekend spent doing nothing can be really nice, ESPECIALLY if the weather is nasty.

I learned that my kid is nuts for amusement park rides. This made me very happy.

I saw that ep of Good Eats too!
And I totally bought two yummy musk melons at the store after doing the sniff test. Stem end, yo.

I learned that I can't count on my roommate to understand the meaning of the phrase "we have to leave - now." Especially when she's in her little flirty mode.

I learned that just barely catching the last train of the night when you're far, far from home is a really scary thing, but a bit exhilirating if you manage to catch it after all.

Laundry, for some reason, doubles in volume out of the dryer.

You can have too much hot sauce.

Nano's fill fast (206 songs barely scratch the surface of jon's collection). Still cool, though.

It is a treat to see your 90-year-old mom (adopted mom) eat waffles and ice cream.

There's never enough time to play on MeCha.
