Quote Du Jour: "But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one (that) compares with you, and these mem'ries lose their meaning when I think of love as something new. Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I'll love you more." (The Beatles, "In My Life")

Does anyone have the scientific research for the attraction between cords? It doesn't matter what kind we're talking about here... because they are all the same: strings of Christmas lights, extension cords, AC adaptors, coax, etc.

I threw my discman-type CD player, earphones, car kit and AC adapter into an overnight bag for a trip a few weeks ago. During that trip, I added a metal hanger to the mix. Somehow, all three wires became entangled with each other and the hanger. How does this happen? I put them in separately... and in the end... they were more tangled than they would have been if I had intentionally tried to tangle them. (0259)

I miss Jessie. I saw her only a few hours ago... but I miss her. Unfortunately, I don't know if this is as good a sign as it should be. It's my nerves. When I'm nervous, I miss her. I don't know why... maybe it's because she is the one constant in my life. Everything else changes... friends, jobs, school... she's always there.

Now back to missing her... I remember when I returned to college for the first time without her (she had graduated in the spring). I missed her so much that I cried. It was the nervousness of going back... once I got into a routine, I still missed her not being around... but I was okay.

I wonder if I'm missing her now because of my nervousness about the job... or because I legitimately miss her. Once I get to work and see that everything is okay, will these feelings disappear?

And if they do... what does that mean? (0302)
