Tranquil

I was trying to teach my grandma how to use Facetime and I realized how difficult and confusing the English alphabet may be to beginners. I tried to describe the "J" as an upside down candy cane. My grandma was trying to find it, but she kept complaining that the letters were too small on the new iPad that my aunt bought her. Imagine how long it took me to tell her to press "@" when I couldn't even describe the shift key. She kept pressing the space bar. I almost used up all of the minutes on the phone card trying to describe letters to her and still ended up failing. Fortunately, a friendly tech savvy neighbor came over to help set it up. I talked to her for a few hours. She was very intrigued by the fact that she could see my face. I ended up giving her a tour of my apartment and then sang happy birthday (but she demanded it with piano and guitar -_- stupid Facetime). All's well that ends well.

This one time in middle school there was a girl that brought an egg to school and claimed that it was a chicken. She wrapped it in tissue and had everyone take turns incubating the thing. We all believed her. After school she dropped it and said that the white part was the fetus. We were dumb. She later admitted that she took the egg out of a carton of store bought eggs. I thought about this a few days ago and laughed. I helped her incubate a chicken period. Nice.

I got irritated at the post man yesterday. I went to the post office to return my heels and I needed a piece of tape. I already had everything ready, but I didn't have packaging tape, so I closed the box with regular tape. I mean, it was sealed. I asked him if I could have a piece of tape and he said that he couldn't give it to me and that I had to either buy some or send it priority and then buy the priority tape. Why can't there be nicer people in the world? Goodness, is one piece of tape going to make a difference in your life? I ended up driving all the way to Target to buy tape. What a waste.

Sunrises are actually prettier than sunsets (the sky is less polluted in the morning), but people are usually too lazy to wake up to see them. Look at my cute little car next to the tree. :)
