Mama Taught me...

So I don't have much to say today, my cold is kicking my ass, though it's getting better now. I sat here this morning with my eyes watering and snot flowing like a hose. Did you know that on average most humans swallow about a quart of snot daily, well I think I swallowed a gallon today. Yummy. Oh well, Senses Fail is tonight, I got my camera(with memory card) so hopefully I will have some good pics tomorrow. I can't drink too much because I really have to be at work on time tomorrow for our field trip to some Navy museum. My aunt sent me this email the other day and I thought it was funny and reminded me of Matini's mama saying "someday you'll see" post the other day, these are things that I'm sure everyones mama told them at least once.

My Mom taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE.
"If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just finished cleaning!"

My Mom taught me IRONY.
"Keep crying and I'll *give* you something to cry about!"

My Mom taught me THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.
"I brought you into this world, and I can take you out."

My Mom taught me about the science of OSMOSIS.
"Shut your mouth and eat your supper!"

My Mom taught me about CONTORTIONISM.
"Will you *look* at the dirt on the back of your neck!"

My Mom taught me about ENVY.
"There are millions of less fortunate children in this world who don't have wonderful parents like you do!"

My Mom taught me about STAMINA.
"You'll sit there until all that spinach is finished."

My Mom taught me how to solve PHYSICS PROBLEMS.
"If I yelled because I saw a meteor coming toward you; would you listen then?"

My Mom taught me about WEATHER.
"It looks like a tornado swept through your room!"
