Life is full of confusion for... uhm....
people like me.
For instance, LA is
not, in fact, in Florida, as I found out sometime last year. Good times there. Ah, how the children laughed with me in celebration of my discovery.
Another
common misconception is that "making up" is what you do when you fight with a friend (it was a pretend fight, granted). However, when you use this phrase, your friend may, in fact, whack you and say that's gross. Because, apparently, "making up" is what couples do. Another revelation!
Also, it is not a good idea to tell people outside of your close circle of friends that you named the pole you eat next to (Jaques) or the filing cabinet in your Sunday School room (George). They will then proceed to flatter you by imitation, skipping gleefully around the nearest pole and proclaiming their love for it. Such lovely days.
Today, I learned something new. DIY is not meant to be said "dee." It actually
stands for something. Is that not completely insane? In any case, it apparently means "do it yourself." Why they do not just say
that, I will never know.
And I learned that discombobulated is actually a real word. I thought Bolt made it up! But no, it means confused. Which is me.
On a completely unrelated note (maybe one day we'll have a related one), January is altogether too long away.
What happens in January, you ask?
Well, there's the customary New Years' drinking party, if you're into that sort of thing and have high alcohol tolerance. Or perhaps the wonderfully irritating slush that accumulates on the side of the road. Or even the joy of scraping off your car windows each and every glorious morning.
While all of these are simply delightful, that's not what I'm excited for.
January is when White Collar comes back.
White Collar is amazing.
That is all.
