Stuff you've learnt the hard way

You know the worst part? It was three weeks before the new iPhones came out. I was going to get one. If it had been TWO weeks, I could've signed a new contract with Verizon and then cancelled out of it. Now I have another year and a half to go on my new Verizon contract.

And DH got an iPhone.

The worst part for me is DH asking "You didn't grab it? You know for your numbers?" I was already mad as all get out like I wanted to grab it. Portapotties and cell phones don't mix but we do have a good laugh at little ol' me's expense and this happened in February 2006!

Don't drop your cell phone in the elevator at work on Friday at 5 just as the door opens. Your phone will slide down the elevator shaft.

Also:

(1) it is possible to bonk while riding a motorcycle. (2) if you DO bonk while riding a motorcycle, you can do a lot more damage than if you bonked riding a bicycle.

1. The inner strands of paracord will catch fire when you are melting them and they come apart and drip...make sure you aren't holding it when you do this. (The burn on my hand is still not healed 3 weeks later)
2. If it looks like it is going to rain, don't rollerblade for the first time on the sidewalk along the river...It started raining, I slipped and rolled down the bank into the river. That hurt!

Unclip BEFORE you try to dismount your bike.

Listen to your gut. Especially in love. If you constantly have to rationalize why you are with that person....you just SHOULDN'T be.
