Case of the Mondays.


I am so having one of THOSE mornings. I was all set to leave for work this morning with toast in hand when all of a sudden without any warning, on their own accord, my toast went flying off my plate onto the floor. The toast, of course, had jam on it but it was not all bad. Of the two pieces only one landed jelly face down. Luckily the on that landed jelly down was on the kitchen floor and the one that landed jelly up was on the carpet but of course there was some rouge jelly that managed its way onto the carpet so I just had to spray it with dog mess cleaner and head out the door, so hopefully that did the trick. That dog mess spray I have got my Dad's blood out of the carpet after the dog cut his face with his freakishly sharp puppy nails so my hopes are high.

Ohh we're not done! Half way to work I realized I forgot my cell phone and my wallet. I don't know what it is about forgetting your cell phone but I actually had a mini panic attack. I don't really even use it but it's like an extra appendage and it's tragic if I forget it. Usually I wouldn't be so concerned about the wallet but I'm usually last to leave the office and I need my ID, which is in my wallet, to activate the alarm so now I have to find out if my boss is going to stay till 5 today because if he's not then guess what I get to do for my lunch break...go get my wallet! Ahh, the joys of a Monday...
Thanks to my wonderful, fabulous husband who brought me my cell phone & my wallet and then took me to lunch. This is why I married him folks. :)

Fear not: There has been much scientific research done on that very subject.
Mythbusters
I think that was a quote from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar
"Beware the Rogue Jelly"

Hehe. :p

That was a myth that needed to be busted? Seriously? I thought it always landed jelly side down because that side was heavier and it naturally flipped that way;)

Um, yeah, I should be studying for finals...

My little jelly experiment showed a 50-50 chance of falling jelly side down so it looks like the Mythbusters were right. :P

Because of the weight distribution, I would expect an ever so slightly higher likeliness of falling on the jam side, but you'd only really see this effect if it was teetering on the edge (which I've never seen happen). Hopefully the Mythbusters were smart enough to conduct their experiments over something besides carpet.

Hehe, I expect it is a typo from Bryan, but the idea of jelly made from a rogue makes me giggle.

Yes, I should be studying for finals too.

Ohh there was no teetering with my jammed toast. The toast flat out jumped off the plate! I must have offended them in some way. :p
