10 Things I Learned This Week

1. When the girls in the office have a smirk on their face as they ask you to go to the copy room and ask for "Ray", it's because "Ray" is a middle aged hunchbacked man with fresh post-surgery metal rods coming out of his head and a speech impediment.

2. If you attempt to perform your own French manicure, the second try is always more successful than the first.

3. If you take the train 10 minutes earlier than when you normally would take it, the trains are empty and your trip time is cut in half.

4. Just because the day before you got on the train early and your trip time was 20 minutes, does not mean if you get on the train late your trip will still be 20 minutes. It will actually be an 1 hour 5 minutes OR just feel like it.

5. Bankers on a Friday are GIDDY!

6. If you make up a holiday in hopes of having it catch on, it won't.

7. When ordering small items from Amazon, you will be billed for shipping separately for each item if they are from different stores. For example, if you want to buy three pieces of something for a hat contest involving the Kentucky Derby, with separate shipping each your total will not be $7.41 as you previously thought but rather, $26.01.

8. When you apply your powder foundation directly after your moisturizer, it stays on longer and blends in better.

9. My dog is crazy.

and finally,

10. Don't each a lot of cheese when you are lactose intolerant and then advertise on your blog that you just "don't feel good". People get alarmed.
