SwedeLady's Random Keepers

I thrive on random knowledge. I have so many thoughts that I put them here to either organize them or just get them out of my head for a bit. I can't imagine not experiencing the thrill of new information and relearning old information- and so I share it here.

TMI

I headed into the restroom today on my way back from actually leaving the office for lunch. Right behind me is a woman from the one other office on our floor. I have this thing about the handicap sized stall so I bee line for it that stall. As I sit down I wonder if everyone lets their pants and underwear fall to the floor or if some do the half way thing. As this is going on in my head the woman in the stall next to me has one of those little farts. You know, the ones where your body is relaxed in order to relieve yourself and some how there was some air just waiting. Probably because there are people who tend to hold it in and then there are those who just let it rip. I almost wished I could will myself to fart just to make sure that lady didn't feel embarrassed. Of course, we are in a bathroom and this is what happens, right? I always feel bad if I do something stinky in the bathroom. Thankfully all the girls contribute air sprays or body sprays to freshen up the room. So, my fellow restroom associates- just know you can fart whenever you want and I won't judge you.

Perspective



"Over the course of six months, reporter and This American Life contributor Jack Hitt followed a group of inmates in a high security prison, as they rehearsed and staged a production of the last act--Act V--of Shakespeare's Hamlet. Shakespeare may seem an odd match for a group of hardened criminals, but he found that they understand the bard on a level most of us might not. It's a play about murder and its consequences, performed by murderers, living out the consequences."

      I think of myself as an eclectic mix of life trying to balance all forces within my soul. If you were to see my treasured possessions you would better understand me. I also enjoy soup, midnight drives, and vanilla Coca Cola.
