No matter what language you speak, you've probably come across words or phrases in another language that sound better than their equivalents in your native tongue. What's your favorite word or phrase in a foreign language?
I have had quite a few dreams where I break through the earth's atmosphere and fly through the galaxy. I can see all the planets and even look directly at the sun.
These are my favorite dreams, even though I have no idea what it represents.
My favorite is the one where the doberman who almost chokes on a burglar's fingers. The first time I heard it, I was fooled, and I have been fooled by others.
It's Tax Day in the U.S., a day when the mind might be too occupied with deductions and long lines at the post office to think about poetry. But let's try: what's your favorite line of poetry? Song lyrics count.
forcing your employees to listen to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton' s (and I use the term loosely) music should be considered a violation of their constitutional right against cruel and unusual punishment.
On a side note I I feel as if I've been vindicated. For years as child I would be repimaned by teachers for daydreaming, and now I've found that scientist have found it's actually good you.
Take that grammar school teachers!! ( Read more... )
Well they finally started the construction on CVS (which should have stated last June - only 8 months late) and the now pretty much the whole store is covered in a visible layer of dust which doesn't always come off with a duster. It's quite annoying and time consuming, because no only do I have to go around the whole store and straighten the items on the shelves, I have to spend a great deal of effort trying to get rid of as much dust as possible. And that's on top of my other responsibilities. In aisle 16 the dust is the worst and it's not a good place to breath. It's like I can feel the dust getting into my lungs and throat.
And one of the day supervisor's made the helpful *rolls eyes* suggestion of washing the items in 16.
Not if I can avoid it.

Every March the Mass Horticultural Society puts on a big plant over at the Bayside Expo.( If I'm not mistaken it's the longest funning show of it's kind in the world.) It's a beautiful event with plants and flowers ranging from the everyday to the exotic. Plants that I would have only seen in pictures. The exibitors really go out of their way to make their landscaspes look unique and inspiring.
Unfortunetley there won't be the big show, they're scaling it back and instead of the huge Bayside expo, they will be holding somewhere the financial district. It's going to very small.
I'm disappointed, but I guess it's just another sign of how bad things are.
