Things that I learned today
1) Mall St. Matthews now has valet parking AND a Cheesecake Factory. Yee haw.
2) My day planner is my best friend.
3) One of Dr. Parker's life goals is to totally eradicate postmodernism from the face of the earth -- and that he is a Trekkie to the core. The man alludes to an episode of Star Trek in every Christian philosophy lecture thus far this semester.
4) Thoughtless words said in jest can be hurtful to those we care about.
5) When you think your stomach is full and you are considering taking a couple more bites, STOP.
6) It is definitely possible to maintain meaningful friendships with people you have previously dated.
7) Sliced cheddar cheese is cheaper than provalone now at Wal-Mart.
8) When you hit a bird with your pickup truck, you can actually see a small cloud of feathers wafting up behind you in your rear view mirror.
**No birds were injured during the making of this blog.

Cheesecake factory? I have never been to one. I will have to try it out. You learned a lot of interesting things.
Every time I see that crazy picture of the bird...all I think of you doing is making the "poofing" motion with your hands and watching your eyebrows shoot up. Comical.
BTW, check out VA's new blog (yep, she put one up...smile)

Make sure to drop a comment...she would be thrilled.
Donna! If you ever get down about having a bad day, just remember that bird! Good grief!!
Good point, Russ -- I'm so glad that the image of a chicken jammed into the grill of a GMC pickup can be forever seared into your memories. You're welcome. :)
Just in case: The picture posted is not a picture of the actual bird that I hit in my Ford Ranger; the picture is actually one I found online... the bird I hit was more like a sparrow or robin. I think I would have completely been hysterical if I would have had to remove a dead carcass from the front of my truck. Ew.
About the Cheesecake Factory:
IT'S ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! That place has the BEST food! Not to mention Southern's own Shawnda Hensiek is a server there. Now isn't THAT an amazing excuse to pile into Donna's Aviary Death-Trap, and zoom on over to get some tasty, $7.00 cheesecake?
I submit that it IS. :)
You hit ONE bird, ONE MEASLEY bird, and you are forever known as the "Bird Killer" ...sheesh.
Just keep your eye on your precious Chips, the classical music loving, soon-to-be-dead... er, adorable parakeet. :)
HA!! That's hilarious! Thanks, Clint... I'll have to remember that one.
