The LC on the DL

What’s a saying or phrase that’s never made sense to you?

“I have to pee like a rushin’ race horse.”

WTF? I know that means you have to pee pretty darn bad and in a hurry… but how is that like a rushing racehorse…seriously? I will never really get it apparently.Comment posted by Raven Root

Horses can’t pee and run at the same time. (Or rather, they have the good sense not to try.) So the fastest horse, i.e. the one who finishes the race first, gets to be the first to pee.

Stupid phrase.

Finally someone has explained it to me! It makes so much more sense now!

You’re better off than I was…

Apparently there are weeds growing out of a floor drain in a ladies restroom here at work. Would you use Draino in a case like this or Roundup?

Shopping at Best Buy this weekend, I came across more iThings:

First the iWash…

Then the iDry…

Then a cute little guy named iCY…

Oh yes, and an AWESOME fridge with a TV in it. Although, not worth the $3400 pricetag on it.

Finally, even the two year old got into a little gaming and didn’t want to give up the Lego Star Wars game to leave.

While I was sitting in a lunch meeting today, I got the inspiration to gripe. So here I am, thumb typing away during a meeting pretending to take notes but instead writing a blog post. What passion could I possibly experience during a meeting you ask? Eating habits.

I could not redirect my attention from a vendor sitting directly in my line of sight at the conference table. Watching her take each bite was like staring at an accident…I was grossed out but couldn’t stop watching. Each bite she took of her chicken salad she puckered her lips into an *O* then stuck her tongue out to meet the fork still 1/2 inch or more from her mouth. I felt like I was watching a bug feeding habits documentary on the Discovery Channel complete with some guy narrating in my head.

The luncheon left me wondering where she learned to eat like this? Did her parent’s do this? Does she have dental issues causing her to attempt to suck up her food with her tongue? Perhaps it is an attempt to save her lipstick? Maybe I will start Googling when I get back to my desk… or maybe I need to start paying attention to meeting contents rather than bug people.

[this is good]

oh dear god, lol. Well at least she didn’t puke on her food first to predigest it before slurping it up.

Yeah, I think I’d be blogging during that meeting too.
