Words to live by

Never trust a fat doctor.
Never trust a skinny chef.

Never trust a preacher who wears a Rolex.
Never trust an investment broker who doesn't.

Never trust a public school teacher with a child in private school.

Never take a job if the boss calls back too soon.
Never take a job if the boss takes forever to call back.

Eat at places you've never heard of. As long as the street is well lit.

Read a book outside your normal genre.

Watch a chick flick once in a while.
Watch a guy movie once in a while.

Look a gift horse in the mouth.

Accept invitations that take you out of your comfort zone.

Watch something foreign (British counts).
Speak in a foreign accent around your friends (British still counts).

Ask a friend for advice on music and take it.

Wave to a child.
Wave to an older adult.

Get into contact with that friend you've been thinking about.




And just as a PS, Will said his first prayer today. After they blessed the sacrament at church, he kept his arms folded and his head bowed and was talking. I recognized his word for "Simba" from the Lion King, followed by "men", his way of saying amen. So his first prayer involved Simba. That's okay with me.

I think Will's first prayer also included Chewbacca and Darth Vader. Maybe he was praying that they could all get along. It was ADORABLE!

Everyone needs a little help now and then, even Simba.
