From Inmates to Playdates

Can you believe that it’s time for another edition of What I Learned This Week?

Nah, me neither.

But, as always I’m eager to share what I’ve learned. I try to make it as entertaining as possible so that the eight of you out there reading will not be bored to tears with the eclectic mix of things that have happened to me this week I’ve learned.

Thankfully, I logged some of it down in my iPhone. Sadly, I don’t remember what I didn’t log down. Hopefully as I type this, it will all come flooding back and I’ll be able to share it.

• Trying to watch Dancing With The Stars while writing a letter to The Board of Education is probably not a good idea.
• When a loved one has surgery at a hospital in the Charleston area, you will be given a pager that will work throughout the hospital.
• When your sweet four-year-old is having surgery, it will be the longest hour of your life.
• When your child decorates a pumpkin at his fall festival at the end of October and inserts a head band kitty cat thing into the pumpkin, and you subsequently place it in your bay window, you can expect it to be rotten and stinkin’ to high-heaven by the middle of November.
• The word ‘fart’ is not allowed in the computer version of the game, Scrabble. (Weird, but true!)
• You should not ask a four-year-old for his opinion about an outfit that you adore if you are not ready to hear that “you look silly in it!”
• When ordering and picking up pictures from Wal-Mart, you should use caution when opening the taped package or you might rip the picture. (Twice for goodness sakes!) Why do they tape the stupid package, anyway?
• The whole “trade-in” deal at Game Stop is only a good idea if it doesn’t bother you to lose money.
• When writing a post that will be linked up to a blog carnival, you should not forget to link up or else you might be the 128th person in the linky line.
• When writing a post entitled Wet-T-Shirt Contest, you can expect a great deal of traffic from people searching for that very topic over at Google.

Wow!

Who knew I knew so much stuff?

You. Are. Welcome.

Head over to Musings Of A Housewife for more things that people have learned!
