Have you learned anything new lately?

It can be serious or humorous. Yesterday I learned something interesting about coke (soda). The propane heat has been really drying me out but my water pipes froze so I couldn't boil any water on the stove top to add some humidity. In desperation, I poured several old cokes into the pot. They were stale and flat and some of them were a few days old and just sitting in the sink for me to empty them. The boil was set a little too high and it evaporated quickly. What I learned was that old, cooked soda smells a lot like caramel candy I wasn't curious enough to actually taste it though

Today I learned that there are 300 pressure points in/around the ear, "making it a prime errogenous zone". Who knew?

Always remember these guys when fondling.

I'm currently learning MAXScript for 3D Studio Max. It's very interesting.

My friend mentioned hes picking chess back up so last night I was reading a chess book and I tried a game this morning online against a computer. It went well until I moved my queen to the wrong square. There was no undo button. I became angry. Guess it's just another of my 5 minute hobbies. I've also been messing around with Ableton Live 5 lately and learning how to use it's infinite music creation capabilities.

I learned through my imperfections that I am perfect. I practiced on my guitar last night but then it hit me "If practice makes perfect why practice if nobody's perfect?" So I put my guitar down and then I received another epiphany. And that epiphany was that my imperfections make me perfect...so I picked up my guitar kept practicing. Yesterday was a good day.

So far today I have learned- or rather, re-learned, how (generally speaking) fickle people are. I ventured out for food and smokes and everyone was in such good moods. There was an abundance of people in Sheetz (gas station, convenience store with a deli). My total purchase came to $13.10 and only 6 of what I paid were bills lol- the rest was quarters and a dollar ten in dimes. Even though there was a line behind me, no one became impatient. The change in mood and activity has been brought about by the warmer day. But when Spring and then Summer gets here everyone will gripe about how hot or wet it is... when Fall and Winter arrives again, people will complain about the damp and cold lol It's the times in between the changes that people seem happiest. I also learned that Strattera somehow helps with my obsessive/compulsive tendencies (either that or Celexa isn't working at all for me). I've been off Strattera for some time now (ran out) and while driving, I passed some rags that oddly looked human in form or arrangement. It took everything in me to not drive back and investigate more closely. They were just clothes. I knew that logically, but I felt compelled it was something more regardless. Today, I would LIKE to learn why post nasal drip causes me heartburn. I can't go around hawking up and spitting up loogies (sp) all the time and what goes down my throat irritates the dickens out of me. (Gross, I know.)
