The Best Invention

Yesterday someone asked me what I thought the best invention was. At first I said the internet - for obvious reasons. I quickly changed my answer, "Wait, no! The computer! 'Cause without the computer you wouldn't have internet plus you get all the other handy things." The more I thought about it, I realized that without electricity you wouldn't have a computer and so on. I decided to stick with the computer before I spun around too much in my circle of thought.

But then I got a massage last night. And I decided that that was the best invention ever - a massage. And I'm stickin with that one!

What do you think the best invention is?

Mistakes that make me sad

Tonight I made a terrible mistake. I was craving kettle corn, so I popped some. With great anticipation, I extended my arm toward the bowl and picked up a few fingers-ful of the warm, fresh corn (have you ever tried to just eat one at a time? doesn't work.) At first bite, I thought "hmm... that wasn't very sweet." So I reached in again expecting a burst of sweet-and-salty deliciousness... and again, it wasn't what I wanted.

I realized I popped regular popcorn... this realization quickly led to a pout from my bottom lip.

My favorite part of the day

At my job, in the absence of our "front desk girl," I may have to deal with a resident who walks into our office (which is in a clubhouse) now and then. I often have many ridiculously time-wasting conversations. So here is what happened today:

Resident walks in with her 4 year old son. Andrea rises from her chair in her office where she was focusing intently on the task at hand and makes her way towards the resident to welcome her. (It is important to note that Andrea's office is in the VERY back of the clubhouse.) As she moves into the lobby, the following conversation occurs:

Andrea: Hi, How are you?
Resident: Hi, yes. We have swimming lessons today at this clubhouse. Is that at the pool?
Andrea (inwardly): I'm gonna go ahead and let you figure that one out.
Andrea (outwardly): Umm... yes, it is.
Resident: Great, thanks! Come on Hunter. I guess it is at the pool.

Time wasted!
