Things I’ve Learned TODAY.
I did a post the other day listing the things I’ve learned in general, but I learned some interesting things today. Did you know that the men’s colognes in department stores are in the Men’s Department? I did not know that. I spent many minutes looking around the women’s fragrance/cosmetics for men’s colognes.

Girly Girly Girly Girl.
There is a salon near where I work that has hardly any windows. I drove by it every day and wondered if it was one of those uber-exclusive spas or if it was a cover for some sort of spy network.

Back during the heather v/s jon croc debate, I stayed fairly neutral. I personally thought they were ugly for me – but I understood the attraction to some. LilZ loved them, of course. And wore them for about five minutes until his foot grew out of them. (Note to self: Never Assume His Feet Can’t Get Bigger.) MrZ couldn’t get over the ugly factor, but swears by... Read More
