Things I've Learned This Week

• Why they have handles on the walls in airplane bathrooms (because, when you finally break down and use one, that is EXACTLY when your flight hits an insane pocket of turbulence). 
• Putting potato peels in the garbage disposal is a gross, stinky $200 mistake. 
• Pregnant flight attendants are some of the grumpiest people on earth. 
• I really kind of like my new healthy diet; it makes me feel better. 
• I also like having donuts for breakfast (I'm a cornucopia of contradictions). 
• Even if I spend only one hour in my old hometown, I'll still run into a high school classmate (it's that kind of town).
• Being nerdy bookworm comes in handy when you're playing trivia board games. 
• My mother has no idea how to change a tire.
• The Oklahoma City airport is not only named after a man who died in a plane crash (Will Rogers), but you also have to cross Amelia Earhart Drive to get to it.
• There's a vineyard in Anadarko, Oklahoma. 
• The Indian food you cook at home never tastes as good as what you get in a restaurant, and your house will smell like curry for days.
• Going to the dentist is never as horrible as you think it will be.
• Being a damsel in distress will always work in the south. 
• I love Beau enough to buy tickets to see Rush for his birthday (sigh). 
• It's always a good idea to take vacation time on Bring Your Child to Work Day. 
• People will always question your life choices, but if you're happy with them, that's all that matters. 
• My life is a nice one to come home to.
