1. Barometric pressure differential between the ground floor and 21st floor where I work is 12 millibars.

2. I bought a gig of memory with my own money to put into my work machine to stop it from constantly stalling. I'm down $45.

3. I have developed plantar fasciitis in my right foot and won't be able to run for quite some time, which sucks a giant ass. In fact, I went from running 3 miles to limping down the block. PF also means that from now on all shoes I buy cost extra $30 for the arch and heel-supporting insoles. People, if you run -- put arch support in before your feet kick you in the nuts.

4. I finally gave the cute fluffy cat present to Eric's daughter. She loved it and didn't let it out of her hands the entire evening. I took full credit for making her happy despite being only partial to the toy's purchase.

>your feet kick you in the nuts

I don't think that is physiologically possible ;)

You mean anatomically.

But yeah, I knew you'd appreciate it :)

[rkatsyv.livejournal.com]

Yeah, anatomically, of course.

*whispers* Shit, dude, it is possible (you know I had to try)

[cryowizard.livejournal.com]

Hehehe. So that's how people in the ER get those bizarre cases...

And yes it's possible, if your legs are really short and nuts are really big :)

Given that normally femur is longer than tibia, then, depending on how close the ratio in your particular case is close to 50:50 and how low your equipment hangs, you might be able to kick yourself in the nuts.

See, that's why we like you -- all reasonable and scientific and shit :)
