Apr. 10th, 2006 02:16 pmRandom things I have learned on my weekend:
Affirmation by Savage Garden and Super Drive (Gravi) are most definately the same song. No, really guys. Ignore the techno beat on superdrive and listen to it for a bit. Then listen to Affirmation. It's not the top melody in Affirmation, it's the one underneath the main melody and the drum line ... but it's there and it's exactly the same. The drum beat is even the same ... Super Drive's just sounds faster because there's an extra drum line.
Also, in the realm of tmi, I discovered that apples really can rot. Jenny and I were telling Jillian that they don't because in our experience, all they ever do is shrivel up. However, I got to work this morning and the one that I left from Friday was definately rotting. I've left other apples here for over a week ... I wonder what was different about this one.
I forgot I got beef jerky for Christmas. I went into the drawer where I keep all things that are good to eat this weekend and I went ooh! Beef Jerky! Then I picked it up and saw that it was, in fact, white and fuzzy. Dude guys! Beef Jerky is supposed to keep forever! I remember that one book in elementary school where all that kid living on the mountain ate all year were beef jerky plugs because that's all that kept longer than a week.
Mom forbid Amy and I from letting her eat any chocolate and decreed that if we were going to open the bag of mini-eggs, we had to eat them all. Amy and I have been joking about 'saving Mom from the mini eggs' ever since. However, on Friday, when we went to eat them whilst watching TV, we discovered that they were gone! Apparently Mom has hidden them because we didn't eat them fast enough and now we can't have any until Easter. If they're opened on Easter morning, we'll know what her real motive was.
The deer have not yet eaten our daffodils and I'm awakened every morning to birdsong. I still say it's weird and cataclysmic, but hey.
This manual Marty wants me to write is really stupid and not really my job and I'm not his student. *sigh* I'm going to do all my other work first.
