Blood

Rach: I hate paper cuts. They feel too ridiculous to require a Band-Aid, but if I wear no Band-Aid I get blood shmears on my documentation. Now that's classy.
 
Bing: Wear the Band-Aid proudly. If anybody asks about it, give them some great war story about being wounded in battle while saving the planet from venomous blood-thirsty creatures.
 
Rach: My binders?
 
Bing: Right, those venomous blood-thirsty creatures.

Obsolete

So, I'm feeling rather nostalgic today as the news reported on "a glimpse of the world through the eyes of each incoming class" of college freshmen due to graduate in 2013 (which I thought was a fairly laughable claim in of itself...but that's beside the point.  Apparently Beliot College (whoever they are) has put out a list of items that they claim will help professors understand the new incoming class ever since the incoming class of 2002 came along (hooray for Hubby!)  I took a look at several years (Hubby's, mine, and the class of 2013) and was not too impressed by some of the points that were brought up...I think the timing may have been slightly off for some things, but all in all a decent idea.  Very entertaining.
 
Then things got really entertaining as I found another article on obsolete technology.  Now this was entertaining and kinda crazy to see how far technology has come, even in my lifetime...
 
...sometimes don't you just wish you could make a banner using a dot matrix printer? 
 
I do.

Geese

 
If you've known me any length of time, in the past 4+ years I have probably complained about the ridiculousness of the Canadian Geese (I generally refer to them as "Those Ducks Again") that plague our area.  They are everywhere, and most annoyingly, in my work parking lot.  Sometimes they take up parking spaces, sometimes they fly toward your head as you walk to the door, sometimes they poop on your car....the list goes on and on.  Needless to say, there is a plethora of these things roaming around Fairfax and Loudoun counties (at the very least) and really, no one needs to go to great lengths to ensure the survival of a few more.  I would have honked my horn with all it's honking power had I seen this insanity in the middle of the road. 
 
Those ducks would have figured out soon enough to flap their little wings and fly across the road, at least that's what they do when I start heading toward them in my car on my way out of the parking lot at night, gaining speed as I go!
