Humor takes the edge off

While I know I just went through several rants, I also know that most of them are just my extremely biased opinions. After all, there is not much I can do about changing the world — only about changing myself. I try to remember that, along with the Serenity Prayer, when I feel frustrated:

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;

The courage to change the things that I can change;

And the wisdom to know the difference.

The other thing I do is laugh, and when Marti sent this to me — well, I laughed.  And it made things better.

Another correlation/causation conundrum

Some excellent websites, I tell you.

Things are better on the home front, and I am working on the mound of paperwork for graduation at present (well, not at present, exactly…but in a few minutes). Anyway, I recently discovered this site:

This is Why You’re Fat, where people send in photographs of American food. This one is my favorite — see how tiny that fork looks next to the giant burrito?

Conversation with a 2-year-old

Me: “What’s your name, Maya?”

Maya: “Princess.”

Me: “Princess what?”

Maya: “Princess.”

Me: “Is your name Maya?”

Maya: “No.  It’s Ariel.”

Me: “Ariel or Princess?”

Maya: (Practically rolling her eyes) “Princess Ariel.”

Me to Marti: “I think we’re going to regret this someday.”
