8.13.99

    I learned two things today (and it's only 9:30 in the morning). Learn from my mistakes and save yourself a little pain:

1. Don't take aspirin with coffee.

Maybe this is obvious to you. My coffee wasn't that hot and going to find water just seemed, at the time, counter-productive. It doesn't matter how cool the coffee is. Take your aspirin with water.

2. Don't brush your teeth and clean your ears with Q-Tips at the same time.

It's really much harder than patting your head and rubbing your stomach and with more dire consequences. You'll either stab your eardrum or the bottom of your mouth. Time it right and you can do this at the same time. It ends up not being such a time-saver when you spend five minutes in stunned agony trying to figure out why you're so stupid.
