What did you learn today?

Filled and unopened wine barrels will develop a partial vacuum in the ullage.

it's cold and rainy outside

Hmmm...I learned that I can actually have fun with my coworkers. I learned that that one woman really *doesn't* have a personality at all. I learned that I drive better than my supervisor

Funny you should ask. It turns out that I learned a fair amount about a tricky painting process. In fact, I learned not to take the steps that I already took last night to treat three otherwise completed paintings (which I had promised to hang in two different shops for a month each in succession). I now have two 35 square foot pieces of garbage, and a third piece that if I crop off about 10 sq. ft. might be a hangable painting, but might not. uh, that was kind of negative, wasn't it? sorry 'bout that.

Actually, in school, I didn't learn anything new. In all of my classes we reviewed. Outside of school, I learned a few things. I learned that my ex is a player. LOL I find that amusing. You would too if you knew him. I learned that my mothers taste in paint colors isn't as bad as I thought. I learned that my friend is in love. I'm so happy for her. :)

- I learned that I am going to miss Wilmington after all.
- I learned that I can sleep away a migrane headache.
- I learned that the girl next door to me doesn't notice the big dirt stain on her carpet that I accidently left.
- I learned that all of my belongings at college can be packed in 4 hours.
- I learned that my English teacher really liked me and I will miss him.

Worry is indeed worthless.
My child is stronger than I give her credit for.

Important lessons from everyone. I think that we can learn from each other, too!!!

Oh and my favorite High School teacher divorced her husband this year after 38 years of marriage. I didn't think anyone who was married that long would bother to divorce.

i learned that babies have a growth spurt around the second...the breast feeding consultant explained this to us...i also learned that poop can also be used as spackle! :P

I learned that honesty really, truly is the best policy.
I also learned that I am valued.

ooops..add 'week' right after 'second' in my previous post

That my bird is rather confusing

That instead of whining about how much Christmas costs, I should be grateful for the opportunity to show the people I love how much I truly love them.

how to install Perl/Apache/mod_perl from source - actually, I'm not done figuring it out.

I learned...um...that I need more sleep.

more baby stuff.

Yesterday I learned (again) that I can't do it all by myself, that sometimes I need someone else to help me. I wonder how long it'll be before I forget it again?

bill - that's what I'm supposed to be learning today. Sounds like it wasn't completely straightforward.

I learned that our company has gathered over $112,000,000 in assets under management for our new annuities in slightly over two months.

dab, bill - it's not that hard, let me know if you need help

mod_perl was the tricky bit, also switching from Perl Linux/Red Hat rpms to built tarfile source is disturbing. You can't realistically de-install Perl, there are too many dependencies. I just installed over, *shrug*. A certain feature of mod_perl (PerlRequire in httpd.conf) doesn't seem to work when using Apache DSO's (modperl.so).

I learned this weekend that my grandmother's death (aleha hashalom [peace be upon her]) affects me more than I thought it would, that I'm a little too good at repressing my feelings sometimes, but that sometimes I'm a better person and am capable of doing more than than I think I am.

I learned about deploying Sapphire/Web in a multi-server environment. Yee-freaking-ha.

That I have emotional grieving to do, over things in my life that I'd intellectually "gotten over."

I learned that the name of the little girl in "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" was Cindy-Lou.

cindy lou who...mind you

That a large dunkin donuts coffee is the same volume as my braun "4 cups, therefore two mugs" coffeemaker.

I learned that I love waking up and having the first thing I see be a certain naked woman, fresh from the shower
and
caramel corn for breakfast ROCKS!

taking a hundered surveys takes a lot of time

I learned that our pet bunny loves to have free run in the kitchen.

I learned that, as well as doing the IRTC, Bill Marrs runs this site too. Judging from the photo on his site, he also looks a lot younger than I thought.

I'm older than dirt, those are old pictures - some are VERY old.

That I have to come back from Australia early for my girlfriend!!

2^5 isn't that old!

I figured out the beginning of the solution to a hard problem I have been wrestling with at work. I am happy.

How to work my new car stereo and how to get blood off of a leather jacket when you bleed from the ears.

I surprised myself by becoming quite emotional about the Cuban boy who is being kept in the US away from his father. I suppose I suddenly realised that it's all a big scam! It's so hypocritical that the US government doesn't care about the thousands of Cuban children who will live (?) in poverty because of the trade embargo, but because this one child literally washed up on the shore of the US, his life is more important. And no-one is mentioning the hypocrisy.
My new years resolution was to find something to be angry about every day. This is today's.

To be paranoid...

Unmetabolized saccharine will make urine taste sweet (so sayeth eris, I haven't tried myself).

Money can buy happiness.....

Dark Karo Syrup unconstipates infants.

I learned that I miss SC and will have to make more of an effort to stay in touch with you guys.

I also learned that I really like this survey. Yeah, me!!!

I learned some new extensions, and how to get to my new house by foot from work.

You can't spin a wet tea bag around your finger by the string without getting tea splatter all over the kitchen. I should have known this already, but I had to see for myself.

Where do I begin? I mean gosh I learned ..................... eye LH!
