it takes one cup of crude oil to make one disposable diaper. so if you diaper your kid in disposables from birth to potty training it will require several barrels of crude, 4-5 entire trees and about $2,500...
that's the kind of information i supply my friends when they say "we started the baby making last night"
"we knew you still had a bit of a journey to go"
i must have suppressed a lot of my hs memories because i can't fully remember how bad that time of my life was. i've mentioned the overall situation to peers as a bit of a background but i haven't really talked about it since then. and now that i've come full circle, around the world and back ...and back in the basement that i lived in for a short stint in hs....all the memories somewhat flooded back. we caught up. we talked. we were happy to see each other. they treated me as an adult. that felt refreshing. i am most grateful. i didn't have to explain how bad it got in my mid twenties. they knew how it was in my teens. my formidable years were strong. i was explaining why i when i do bench press, i pop the bar off my chest and explode. thats how i was taught. coach john regan. interesting.
"pay it forward"
"as coaches and teachers, we see your talents before maybe you even see them. what happens in the future...we're not surprised. we see it and understand how and why it happens cuz we've seen it from the beginning"
a few years ago i remember my ex boss saying "starting a small business is the easy part. growing it to a mid size business is the hard part"...today's conversation is "the tough thing about your own company is to take a management role or be a trader. where do you draw the line btwn management and trader?"...and my own conversation is "stop pitting us against each other...it's an outdated form of motivation...give us our comms. that works better."
실망이야.
a new potbelly opened up by work. finally tried it. all american sandwich shop feel. expedited customizable sandwiches in an open spaced wooden decor layout. guitarist singing while you wait or dine and all foods come with hand written signs of "grab this" "try that" of cookies, snacks, malts, shakes. anything that resembles an american summer ball park feel. the difference maker here, was the staff. the staff was all american. good english speaking, american cultured staff. friendly and fast. that kind of service is a vast difference between the immigrant workers that produce the same quality and service, but the delivery is just different. subway is essentially the same thing, but why does it taste and feel so much different? do local natives have a better grasp at making rustic malts with chunks of ice cream? rather than the contrived and learned motions of immigrants who make malts just as well?
hmmm....
"we agreed that you're smarter than all of us."
"but what does being smart matter when i'm the worst judge of character."
"happy july 4th. do u like to tan? obv not. everything u own has spf in it." after a night of bbqing and beer pong. we sat in the pool with our tshirts on having a beer. not wanting to tan.
"i dont want hamburger and hot dogs at a bbq"
"look at me, i've matured. im not even drunk at your bbq...."
"where are my shoes?"
"pre-bbq, i used to ignore your comments on matters relating to cooking. post-bbq, i actually read your comments relating to cooking."
"do u like my rompers?"
"COOTCHY CUTTERS!"
"are they making out?"
"singing into a fork"
"how mediterranean of you"
"zoey is on a diet"
