Post-it notes and chicken vertebrae...

So 2 very interesting things have happened to me today:

1. Cameron and I had been trying to figure out what this message to herself on her wipe off board meant: PNER. We knew it stood for something, but we couldn't figure it out... Well, at least Cameron claimed that she didn't know what it meant. When I got home from class this morning, I definitely figured it out. Post-it Note Em's Room. PNER. Yes, that's right. I have a variety of colors around my room, engulfing my bed, a smiley face design on my closet door, and even some on my teddy bears. I have a very large "WHOOP" on my floor, and an '05 on my bed. Cameron has dubbed it her "senior prank". :)

2. Liz alerted me that the disposal was not working properly, and that I should investigate. So that's what I did. I remembered Matt telling me about a restart button under the sink, which I pushed, and it still wasn't working. I called both my Dad and Matt hoping for some advice, but the only thing Matt came up with was that there was probably something just jammed in there. So I decided to get down to business and explore inside the sink. Now, keep in mind that I DO NOT like putting my hand down the sink into the world of the unknown. But I toughed it out, and with Cameron's magenta colored rubber gloves, I went to work. After much exploring and about 5 minutes, I had pulled out 4 chicken vertebrae. Yes, vertebrae. Weird. Apparently Gigi had put her excess chicken scraps down the drain. But after pulling those bones out, the disposal was much happier. It made a grinding noise of gratitude, and I went on my way.

If that story wasn't weird enough for you: we were just discussing chordates with vertebrae in class today. Ah the irony.
