Things I've learned lately...
Jan. 2nd, 2006 12:45 am1. The more I work on memorizing things, the better my memory becomes. I mean, it used to take me several repetitions to learn a song, and then I'd lose it as soon as I heard a different song. I'd have to alternate songs for a while until I could keep the new ones in my head. And now it's not only faster, but I can remember songs even after hearing other things in between.
(Duh, right? Of course exercising my memory makes it stronger!)
2. Toddlers love it when you're wrong. To them, this is just the funniest joke ever. "No Connie! Cow goes mooooo. *giggle*"
3. When I was a kid, I was an ungrateful brat in many respects. No, that's not sardonic mimicking of somebody's complaints, it's a conclusion I came to all on my own after honestly reflecting on childhood gift-giving ceremonies.
4. Times Square is of the devil.
5. Stress can cause hives. Who knew?
