What I Learned This Week - 5/31/13

1.  If you have a prenuptial agreement prior to marriage I believe you should not be allowed to say, "I do". You must state, "I accept these terms and conditions."
2. I like the concept of brand of whisky named “Responsibly”. 
3. I have taken four years of advanced college math classes and yet cannot do simple math on a calendar. "This Friday is the 24th, what's next Friday...one Friday is sev....Let's look at the calendar!"
4. I can only remember which months have 31 days by using the knuckle trick. For those not in the know – Google it.
5. Scientists have long known bees are rather intelligent and can be trained to perform many tasks. There are now bomb sniffing bees. Yes way.
6. It never occurs to me while driving until I see tail lights that if traffic going the opposite direction on the highway is non-existent, my commute is about to get very, very, very long.
7. I had forgotten how enjoyable it is to show someone how to tie a fly.
8. Riding/running any given route in the rain makes you 50% more hard-core than covering the same route on a sunny day.
9. Whenever I’m at a party and someone hands me a plastic solo cup and a marker and tells me to write my name on it….my name is always written “Han”, just above the solo logo.
10. I have no idea which razor Superman uses to shave. I’m beginning to wonder if he even has the potential for facial hair.
11. As of this writing, my very first triathlon is in just under two days.  I’m hyperventilating way too early.  By “way too early” I mean “all week”. I guess one could call it panic.
12. I knew Google glasses would go to the creepy level of technology, but I didn’t expect it so soon. The glasses aren’t even on shelves yet and the first porn app has been released – ew.
13. I have never heard an actual person yell or state, “Zoinks!” in a time of fear or extreme concern. I’m going to make my best effort to include it into my vocabulary.
14. Sometimes the Carlton Dance is appropriate.
15. It took 73 years and change before a man ate his FIRST slice of pizza – actor Patrick Stewart (aka: Captain Jean Luc Picard). I think I’ve eaten enough pizza to make up for his 73 years of missing it.
16. Only two days until my first triathlon...I thought by now the terror of the idea would have subsided...it's only gotten worse.
