Post 4 - The one called Ten for Tuesday 012412

1) The Clicker AKA the TV Remote Control. A source of power struggle.(My show is starting! I need to record something! You KNEW I was waiting for my show to start!!) Yet a sort of "hot potato" pariah (I don't have it. I don't know where it is. I am not looking for it. What is YOUR PROBLEM.) When anyone/everyone wants to change the program and it can't be located, a source of drama and panic.(I haven't seen it. I had to change the channel BY HAND. How am I supposed to change channels during a commercial???)

2) The DVR. I want to watch a show on a particular channel. As soon as my show is about to start someone has recorded two different programs at the same time. DENIED. Crap.

3) Chopped. I love this show. Mixing fish heads and M & Ms and tomatoes and tofu ALL AT ONCE. What sick twisted bastards put these ingredients together in these crazy baskets? I bet they get drunk together and giggle about their evil ingredient mixing plans.

4) Snow Boots. I was complimented on mine today. A co-worker (male) scoffed and asked what was that about. Dudes SO don't get clothes. Women get it. Well - women who get it, get it. Some women clearly don't get it either.

5) Toilet paper. When the roll is empty, replace it. Paper over the top, not under. We're not curing cancer here people. Seriously.

6) Band-Aids. Read something in my Jr High kid's test book that they are developing fungi band-aids. Helps with healing apparently. Cool! Shroom-aids?

7) Manners in Minnesota. We are nice here. When you walk past we'll probably say "Hi" or "Hey". When on the phone I will ask how you are and you would respond "good and you?" regardless of how you really are. When driving past a neighbor on the road we will give the one-finger wave to each other. It's how we roll here.

8) Labradors. They make the best dog pets. Just saying. Unless you don't like shedding. Then you are screwed. Buy a plant.

9) Sprinkles. I like them. I hear they are called Jimmies in some parts of the country. Wierd. They are SPRINKLES because they are sprinkled on. Not JIMMIED on.

10) Getting my hair shampooed at the hair salon. It's fabulous. So relaxing. I could just keep handing her fistfuls of dollars and asking her to keep going.

Well, that's it for today. More later peeps!
