Nepalese Fighting Chickens

There's something that's really been bothering me for the past few day. You ever get those dreams where your teeth fall out? Or just one? Ha ha. They really freak me out. I know that apparently if you dream about teeth it means something, but what?

And then there's the ridiculous episode of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" where Charlie discovers his teeth are just....coming out. Bleh.

Mac: "let me use these pliers....it might hurt..."
Charlie: "errghh.....oh, look, this one just came right out..."
Mac: "you should really brush your teeth...it's not normal!"
Charlie: "hey, another one! weird!"
Mac: "okay, stop. seriously. STOP!"
Charlie continues taking out his teeth...

My New Kneecaps V.02

To continue on from the previous list of exceptional places in Portland (that are cheap and delicious!)

6. Rocco's Pizza - mismatched chairs and strange array of homeless people outside make this one of the ost sought out places to grab a greasy piece of pizza. Affordable and generous, they give you a huge piece! Ha ha. It's always a new experience eating there. Downside: lots of strange people loitering around...some with knives, some without.

7. Pearl Bakery - Maybe not the cheapest thing around, but when you walk in you just want to buy all their bread and run before the hungry stampede catches up to you. The smell is irresistable, and it's always packed. Agh! This is one of my all-time favorites. Downside: N/A.

8. Marrakesh Morrocan - Oh, man. The food is incredible, and so is the cost. But you get to sit on poofy pillows! Ha ha. And eat with your hands! Whoo! It's actually cheap if you consider the fact that it's a four-course meal. A VERY generous four-course meal. Downside: Women in their forties should not belly-dance. It's really....awkward

Men's Combed Socks

I'm going to try and post something new and completely pointless daily, so if I talk way too much about old people, feel free to...hit me with numchucks. Ehh?

Pointless bit of news...recently, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources has been seeking 75 volunteers to be trained in listening to frogs so that the state can complete its annual frog survey. Georgia has 31 frog species, each with distinctive ribbits and croaks, and surveyors, after practicing detection, will monitor frog habitats to help officials measure population trends. Tracking season begins this week. Whoohoo. Another great thing for me to look forward to this week.

Along with listening to frogs and reading up on the latest research about dinosaur feces, I have discovered a very comfy chair in Smith Union at PSU. It's warm and squishy, which sounds really disturbing for some reason. Honestly though. I took a nap there today, and although I woke up with a eight stab wounds and a crick in the neck, it was worth it. And I can't seem to find my wallet...
