The Daily Crazy - February 6, 2008

*singing*
Who's to say
What's impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There's no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say
I can't do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along I begin to find
Things aren't always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing upside down
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs
This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste
Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and

Upside down
Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found
I don't want this feeling to go away

Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Please don't go away
Is this how it's supposed to be
Is this how it's supposed to be
- Jack Johnson (Upside Down)

Hmmm... someone (and you know who you are) has this as their ringtone ... and I've been humming it since yesterday. I'll raise you your ringtone, and give you a Daily Crazy YouTube clip! HA!

Ok, I wasn't going to give up this "Secret" (you'll see the pun later in the story... and yet another plug) but I feel it is my duty to share. I'm going to COMPLETELY humiliate myself here... But methinks it's worth it. Be prepared to point and laugh at me.

So the other day... I was in a pretty stressful situation. And I had to somehow manage to compose myself and stay cool, calm, and collected.

Well... I have this problem. Not only do I blotch and turn bright red under pressure... but the body heat rises, I get hot under the collar, and... well my body and my dress shirt don't see eye to eye. Ok, I know, not very "girly." But hey. You'll thank me later for embarrasing myself/sacrificing my dignity.

So, wearing a nice dress shirt + too hot + nervous = disaster. No matter if you have an undershirt on. You're still destined for catastrophe.

I could not have this as a worry. I was already worried enough about turning into a full-body Rudolph.

What's that I smell? FEAR.

I have discovered two things that remedy the situation:

1) Secret Prescription Strength deodorant. AWESOME. (here's that plug... CHA CHING! change please)

2) Keep your old socks. Drape one end of the sock down the arm of the shirt, and tuck the other end inside the short sleeve of your undershirt, or, let's face it, I'm beyond modesty now... girls, tuck it in the side of your bra. If you're wearing a jacket, no one will ever know they are there. Just make sure they are long socks! You don't want to be walking along and all of a sudden have a sock fall outta your shirt... This puts a good barrier between you and the dress shirt material. Believe it or not, once upon a time, there was actually something that was produced for just this reason (I have dubbed them... Pit Pads).

Hey, seriously. This saved my LIFE. Wait... don't go... Modesty... come back!

Smell

Funny stuff...
