Random Ramblings

No news on the adoption front.

I have been contemplating what to write about next, other than the normal "we have no news" stuff. I don't think I really decided on anything in particular. Instead, I plan on using this precious web space to pose a few questions and ponderings. Here it goes...

If I had known we were going to live in the snow for five plus years, I would have started donating plasma a long time ago to purchase a snowblower.

Why are potholes called potholes? That seems so innocent compared to what they really are. Wouldn't something like carswallower, tarditch, or tireripper be more appropriate?

I know how they get milk from cows and goats, but what about rice? How does that happen?

Is anybody ever caught up on laundry, dishes, and vacuuming for more than one day?

If manufacturers made eyeglasses slightly crooked, maybe more people would think they had evenly alligned faces.

What does size "0" actually mean? Is the person non-existent? What happens if they are smaller than a "0"? Do they become negative in size?

What does the saying "Red is the new pink" mean? Can we use the same logic and say "Size 16 is the new size 10"?

Something I hoped would never happen has happened. Factor recognizes several fast food restaurants and will tell me how hungry he is and what food items he needs from them. Of course, he also tells me what stores we need to stop at, and what toys or activities he wants from each (go play with trains, see the fish, choose one car, etc).
