  • impracticalities

    A few useful things I wish I could do:

    (1) Remember people's names after meeting them
    (2) Navigate without GPS
    (3) Touch type
    (4) Talk and type at the same time
    (5) Watch TV and work at the same time
    (6) Fall asleep like a normal person
    (7) Stay asleep like a normal person
    (8) Pee fewer times per day
    (9) Throw things away
    (10) Parallel park
    (11) Stay awake while driving more than 20 minutes
    (12) See further than four inches without my glasses
    (13) Have warmer feet and hands
    (14) Cook a good meal from scratch in less than 45 minutes
    (15) Sew more than buttons and holes

  • how is your the relationship going?

  • @MadaMadaDan3 - Really really well, thanks :) More to come on that soon...

  • Troid, font has gotten dangerously tiny compared to what it used to be!  Did you fiddle with anything?

    And I don't think anyone can talk and type at the same time... unless she like to type only what's coming out of her mouth!  I stink at remembering names and faces.  I've met my roommate's friends many times and still can't pick them out of random strangers on the street.  Or sometimes they'll appear in my apartment so that I don't need to pick them out, but then I discover I can't remember their names.

  • Haha...me, too (about all of them)!

  • Did I ever tell you the time I was all BFFy with this girl from one summer camp - sharing books eating lunch together, then a month passed and I went to a second camp and she approached me and I had no idea who she was? :(

    Anyway, the one thing I CAN do on that list is touch type... and maybe the 45 minutes meal... depending on what you mean by "good." I'll consider it a victory. :D

  • Are you shrinking your font size to demonstrate what it feels like to suffer from point #12? (blind past 4 inches)

    I've found that the more I rely on a GPS to get to places, the less likely I'm able to navigate that area sans GPS.  It's so bad that I'm not sure I want to replace the unit I gave my brother.

  • Well I can type and talk at the same time - with amazing results - for both ;)

    so you are having naps after every 20 minutes of driving?
