should i be worried?
Dear Right Thumb,
We've been through a lot together. But you have been numb all day. Time to snap out of it!
Best Regards,
The Rest of Your Body

Giraffes: the Great Debate
What?
If you haven't heard about the controversy that's taking over the scientific community by storm, it's time to jump on the bandwagon.
Let me enlighten you: Giraffes aren't real.
Some will disagree, arguing tirelessly over the fact that "I saw them! I saw them at the zoo!" To which the obvious reply is always "What? You mean those trees? Those trees with ears?"
psshhhh

weird stuff keeps happening at work
So I look over to my right and there is some blond 5 year old boy riffling through a box of plastic, large pellet guns that is under the office's fax machine. I do not know why a box of pellet guns is under the fax machine. I also do not know why there is a 5 year old blond boy in the office.
The plot thickens when a little blond girl of approximately the same age approaches him. She says:
"Bryce, you're gonna get in big trouble, mom said if you shoot those at someone you're gonna be in BIG trouble, you're gonna get spanked...IN THE BUTT."
As I write, I hear one of the guns go off from the next room. It sounds like this:
BLCCCCAAACCCKKCKCKCKCKCAKKAKCKCK

Companion Gardening: Cause Plants Need Friends Too
Spent yesterday at work learning how to plant food strategically! Am designing a whole new garden for my backyard, cause my first one bombed.
In my first garden, I had:
Beets
Green Onions
Lettuce
Gophers came and stole my lettuce, from underground! They came up from underneath and pulled those suckers right under. Then the dog came and dug up my onions and beets to find the gophers.
So anyway, companion gardening means that when you plant a certain herb or vegetable by it's "companion", then they work together to keep off predators and other bugs like aphids. They also make each other taste better!
Sprigs of mint will deter mice and ants. Planting garlic bulbs around fruit trees will keep deer away. Anise by broccoli keeps aphids off.
What an exciting world! Will post pictures of the finished product.

we're not dating anymore
I read an article about kissing the other day. It said that we are attracted to people whose immune systems are different from our own...and that women can assess immune system compatibility through kissing. Too similar? No chemistry.
So this is what happens to me after I read the article:
I'm sitting next to a guy I've just been starting to date. He has professed to really like me. We're on the couch. Sitting close. Kissing is on the mind. He goes in for the kiss, and we make out for a total of 5 seconds. I pull away, feeling very neutral about our lip locking. Then I have a brilliant idea!
"Ummm, I think our immune systems are too similar..."
