dates and hitched figs
Today is Albert Einstein’s birthday (1879), and on this day in 1794 Eli Whitney received his patent for the cotton gin. Yes, I read this somewhere, but, for some reason, the fact that Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin is one of the facts I remember best from long-ago history class.
Scent of tiger balm and hard-boiled eggs make the day I take in the unergonomic desk-chair. The egg is good for your eyes; the computer is not. The egg contains all 9 essential amino acids; the mouse does not. The eggs are in my belly.
When a person gets married and pregnant, is it part of the package for that person to become an emptily outspoken bitch?

Dear Ganesh and your mouse-car, please if I wed and swell in the belly area, keep me strong against repugnant-bitch tendencies that might afflict me.
A few new words I learned (from Wired):
Olfrygt: how the Danish describe the nagging fear of being unable to find a beer while out of town
Iktsuarpok: the Inuit way of describing the act of repeatedly going outside to check if someone is coming
Dozvonit’sya: the Russian expression for ringing a doorbell or calling a phone number over and over until you get an answer
