While I was paying very close attention in class one day, a burst of writing energy struck me but I couldn't take the time out to satisfy that need. I wrote down a few notes instead, and though I should be studying for my test tomorrow, I'm going to finally get out these little thoughts so that they don't eventually die.
First - Connor and I watch Olivia all of the time (funny little kids cartoon), and Olivia stops frequently to address the camera with her numbered "Rules of Life". Connor is still pretty little, and some of these things are over his head. He apparently had misheard what Olivia was saying, too, because he thought she was saying "You look like" instead of "Rule of Life". So, he comes up with his own little rules all the time - it's really stinkin' cute. I was changing Elly's diaper today, and she was about to grab it and I yelped a little, and Connor said, "You look like number 42: When your mom is changing your sister's diaper and your sister almost grabs her poop, watch out because it's scary when your mom yelps." First off, the little rule is silly and really funny that he's coming up with his own rules. Second, it's funny to hear him say "you look like" instead of what it should be, and I want to correct him on it, but at the same time I'm just proud of him for being creative like that so I try to keep my mouth shut. One day I did tell him that Olivia is saying "Rule of Life" instead of what he's saying, and he just looked so bummed out that he got it wrong. Now I tell him to say it however he wants to, because it's his rules. Anyway.
Ok, here's the list of things in my notebook that I jotted down to write about. They're dumb, but the little "writing" notes on the page I'm studying are so much more interesting than the chemistry notes I should be looking at. First, there was a girl in the class that day that was wearing a mid-length jacket with a very strange pleat thing in the back. I've seen a lot of coats with a pleat in the middle of the back that opens up to the bottom of the coat, presumably to allow the coat more movement around the legs since the coat is longer. I've seen maternity coats with pleats in the front of the coat to give the woman more belly room to grow. This coat had a pleat in the back, starting probably at the shoulder blades, that opened up and then met again right above her butt. The way she was sitting made the jacket open up quite a bit in this pleat, so it looked like she had a big vagina on her back. I don't know anyone's names in my class, but I now secretly refer to this woman as "vagina jacket girl".
Sitting next to vagina jacket girl was a dude that usually is fairly well dressed. On this particular day, however, the weather apparently got the best of him. I think that when he woke up in the morning and looked out his window, the warm sunshine was so inviting that he decided to wear his summer clothes outside. He likely showered, thus feeling even warmer because of the hot water, and then donned his summer jean shorts and a white tank top. Then... he stepped outside. It was only about 50 degrees that day, which is still jacket weather. Realizing he was going to be late for class, he quickly grabbed a coat and was off to school. So, Mr. Well-Dressed was wearing leather sandals with no socks, jean shorts, a white tank top, spiky 'do, and a long leather trenchcoat. He looked like a freaky flasher motorcycle creep. I now secretly refer to him as "The Flasher". He sits next to a male Nurse Jabba (yes, the Hut) in class.
