I’ve been attempting to write this post for the past twenty minutes.
I’d really like to curl up in my bed and just go to sleep. Unfortunately though, I am booked tomorrow and if I don’t write my “Things I Learned This Week” post right now, it probably won’t get translated from my head to my fingertips until sometime late tomorrow evening.
So, I’ll do the best I can to dish out this dose of crazy before calling it a night.
This week, I learned some great stuff and since I usually keep notes throughout the week on my beloved iPhone, I’ll give them to you in the order which they were recorded in my “notes” folder.
1. A trip to the Emergency Room on a Tuesday night for suspected flu (and maybe of the swine variety) will cost you about six hours and most of your sanity.
2. The jokers at Apple need to seriously consider designing a battery for the iPhone that will outlast a six-hour wait in the Emergency Room.
3. At a birthday party where thirteen kids are in attendance, there is a pretty good chance that at least one of them is carrying swine flu germs.
4. Toradol, when shot directly in the hind-end via a big, stinkin’ needle can put the smack-down on a big honkin’ headache in mere minutes.
5. When the fund-raising folks dangle a hummer limousine ride to the Arches over the heads of young children, mamas will buy five tubs of the stuff do some strange things.
6. Sadly, no matter how hard I try, I can’t please everybody.
7. It is possible to poke yourself in the eye with a toothbrush while brushing your teeth.
Weird, but certainly true.
8. Things are rarely as bad as they seem in my head.
9. Sasha Obama has her own library book. I was surprised to see the words ‘dissed’ and ‘chilled’ within its pages.
10. Apparently #119is my lucky number. Especially when entering a bloggy contest with 137 other bloggers. Woo Hoo!
That’s it for this week folks. What about you? Feel like sharing something you’ve learned with the rest of us? Come on, spread the crazy love.
And then, head over to Musings Of A Housewife for some more crazy!

Toradol is a wonderful thing, had it for the same reasons (different underlying but still). Only problem…Boo was there and saw them stick my behind. She still talks about it, three years later. Lovely.
Tooth brush in the eye…really? You are so gifted, so proud.

As always, a great list!!
ER’s are the worst places!!! You end up there FOREVER and you’re surrounded by the most ridiculous germs!! FOREVER!!!!
I don’t know of any smartphone that would withstand a trip to the ER.
Toothbrush in the eye? Is your toothbrush curved somehow??

Hilarious about the poking yourself in the eye with a toothbrush while brushing your teeth. I’ve never done it myself, but it so sounds like something I could accomplish. Thanks for making me LOL!!

Oh no! Sorry to hear the sickies have hit your household. BLEH.
And now I’m curious about this toothbrush feat of which you speak. That sounds like something I’d manage to discover.
