Today, I learned that my digital camera focuses much better on very small objects if they have a white background!

Re: What did you learn today?
Tue, February 26, 2008 - 10:00 AMI learned not to leave your craft/costume materials on the coffee table overnight if you don't want your cats to play hockey with them. And that feathers are more appealing than catnip. -

Tue, February 26, 2008 - 10:58 AMHrrmmm....very wise.
Same applies to leaving your craft supplies out where you rats are playing.
Contrary to popular belief, rats ARE attracted to glitter. -

Re: What did you learn today?
Tue, April 8, 2008 - 12:52 PMThey like feathers too. I left some out and later found my rats' beds lined with them. I didn't have the heart to take them back. Rats apparently like to be very glamorous.

Tue, February 26, 2008 - 12:04 PMI didn't learn this today, but the thread reminded me of a lesson I learned when Isabella was ltitle: Do not leave a two-year-old alone for even a few seconds with a bottle of glue if you do not want to come back and find her shoes filled with it. -

Re: What did you learn today?
Fri, March 14, 2008 - 6:56 AMI've learned many things in the last few days.
1. Under pressure, I turn into uber creepy pagan ritual chanting warrior machine...which in turn creeps out my coworkers...and makes me smile.
2. Socks are, in fact, NOT over rated.
3. Cloves always taste better with good company and sarcasm.
4. I'm rather attracted to the old standard of men (ie Humphry Bogart) and less so to Abercrombie models...and have decided that perhaps women and men are slowly switching roles as you must explore both sides of a spectrum to first understand it and then acheive balance.
5. I fit into no genre...and my oddball friends are surprisingly alright with this.
6. I have a mild obsession with both African goddesses and the movie 'my big fat greek wedding'
7. I am so unmotivated to work today that I've sat her staring at this list and thinking of random things to say so I don't have to actually open AutoCAD until 9.
Good day to you, madame(s)! -

but i guess i learned those a long time ago. -

Re: What did you learn today?
Wed, April 9, 2008 - 2:23 PMToday, I learned not to practice Arabic shimmies in the elevator. Doing so can turn one small moment of privacy into a much longer one... especially if the elevator is old and prone to breaking down... -

Re: What did you learn today?
Wed, April 9, 2008 - 2:48 PMNow that sounds like it should be a much longer a story. :-) -

Re: What did you learn today?
Wed, April 9, 2008 - 2:52 PMMaybe it should be. :) Pretty dull though, 'cause I was too worried that continued practice would have me in there till LOOOONG after the 8-5 workday ended. I'm such a sissy.
