Crosswords

Since my commute is quite long, I've discovered the miracle of the crossword puzzle. Time just flies by when you're concentrating on something... plus it's fun! I started doing crosswords a couple of years ago, one Christmas, in order to help "entertain" my grandmother. It was great because I realized (to my disbelief) that I was actually able to find a few words! Anyways, crosswords are now a part of my daily routine, and I'm most pleased to announce that today I completed my first Metro Crossword puzzle without any help!!!!!!! (well, except of Chelsea's one word "warp", and one Wikipedia help: Uraei = Asps, who knew? ... I probably would have gotten it in the end) This was a very momentous occasion for me, and it was only possible since I took the bus for ridiculously small commutes (because of my ankle) on the way to and from Yoga class, good Karma people!

Today I also had my first experience of a "laughter club", I cannot say that I enjoyed it too much, it was a very strange and awkward, to me anyways. I much prefer laughter to be unforced, and real. I also learned that the average human laughs on 15 times a day, whereas the kindergartner laughs 400 times a day. Where does out sense of humor run off to?
