I goofed a little on the NaBloPoMo challenge this past week… I was on a trip to visit old friends in New York, then had to catch up on all the work I missed while I was away, then suddenly it’s a holiday and I just haven’t found the time/energy to write.

But just because I haven’t been writing much in the past few days, doesn’t mean I haven’t been learning. Here are a few things I’ve learned since my last post.

Friday, November 20 –

I learned that Chocolate scented teddy bears are apparently in production. I wondered if scented stuffed animals started with Lots’O, the bear from Toy Story 3.

Saturday, November 21 –

I learned this phenomenal lesson in cause and effect from NYC parks.

Sunday, November 22 –

I learned that John Oliver love/hates the penny as much as I do!

As well as this very important pop culture development.

Monday, November 23 –

I learned this very salient declaration directed at all “millennials.”

Tuesday, November 24 –

I learned that the internet literally has a cat photo for everything.

Wednesday, November 25 –

I learned more facts than any one person should know about Presidential Turkey Pardoning, like how the spectacle has become so elaborate that the turkeys (this year they are named Honest and Abe) receive their own fake motorcade to the White House, accompanied by fake secret service agents.
