Michela's suggestion of the day
It's the only suggestion of the day ever on MWB, but it's brilliant, of course. As a software geek, I write a lot for my job. I draw cute little pictures, write stuff (software flows, risk mitigation plans, integration points and what they do, blah blah byte me) and I have been hindered more than once by the fact that I write with my right hand, and the mouse and mouse pad are also on the right side. So when I have to write, it's always kind of a pain to get to a place on the desk where the mouse/keyboard won't interfere with my right hand.
So, of course, I started wondering why do we mouse with our writing hands anyway? It's not a very dexterity-intense action. I moved the mouse to my left side; after 2 weeks, I barely notice the difference. And I get to keep my pen and paper right where it needs to be--on the RIGHT!

Another note to self...
When harvesting pot, try not to smoke so much at the farm that you forget you're walking down the street carrying pot plants with the roots and all, especially if the county jail is on the route between the farm and home.

Just when you thought the internet was just one big time waster....
This article contains a slew of notes to self for those of you who might find yourselves in prison some day. God forbid. But it happens. You know, an ex-husband drives you over the edge of sanity and you murder him...that kind of thing. It just happens. My favorite note to self in this how-to-survive-prison list:
Do not become a 'punk' (girlfriend). While becoming a punk might give you some fleeting, temporary protection from other inmates, you will be a virtual slave to one. Punks are used and abused. They are traded away in card games and sold for cigarettes. It is not a path to long term survival in prison.
Now, thems some words to live by!

Note to self...
When playing with a grenade, you might want to wear body armour. Additionally, you might want to avoid playing "Keep Away" using a grenade when playing with six other members of your family.

Note to self...
When planning a trip to a third world nation where HIV and other STDs are rampant, you might want to pack a condom.
