Rohto-scope

Ever put eyedrops in your eyes? They can be soothing. Its like when you dip some lobster in melted buter. Its all lubricated and awesome. When you put visene or cleareyes in your eyes its like your eyes just got a fresh glass of water.

One of my favorite things to do is to have people put rohto in their eyes. Its not the same as cleareyes, yet it achieves pretty much the same goal. There is one key difference. If your eyes had nuts, rohto kicks them.

It is painful to the uninitiated. Its kind of like when you taste beer when you are little "ew this is gross, Id rather have an apple juice". But then you begin to understand. And thus, rohto is what you should put in your eyes. Moreover, rohto is what you should have your friends put in their eyes.

Today I toasted a bagel in my oven. I usually toast bagels in a toaster or on a buttered pan. I use my oven because I burned the wire going to my toaster because it was too close to the stove top and melted. Anyway I had it on bake, slowly getting toasty delicious so that by the time I was done with the sausage and egg It could be put on top and called a day. But thats when my roomate convinced me that Broil was the key.

Turns out if you leave a bagel in an oven set to broil you get a completely black bagel. Like charred to the point where if I ran out of pencils I could easily just rub this bagel shaped charcoal onto the parchment and easily write or draw stuff.

Coffee is more expensive per gallon than gasoline. Coffee doesnt run my car. Gasoline doesn't taste as good. You do the math.

A friend of mine is a female. She literally washes her sheets once a week. She has a comfortable bed with 4 sheets. She also has lavender oil and lavender spray that she pours onto her bed. One of her pillows has a built in potpourri pouch. Yesterday when I was laying on her bed I realized all of this over the course of about 30 minutes. Not too far after a friend of mine decided to grab the lavender oil bottle and pour it on me.

The scene was much like that scene in saving private ryan, when that german stabs the jewish guy. Except instead of a brutal knife it was a brown glass bottle of lavender oil. I had a drink in my hand so i was fighting him off with one hand.

Last night I smelled terribly of lavender. I smelled like bath and body works or whatever that place in the mall is that just smells awful with too much girl smell.


I'm not against candles though. I have one in my room. Something vanilla. Its awesome.

Alright, a visiting friend just walked in the door. I'll have to talk to you all later.

But check out this podcast that I'm told I have to check out. It's called 'radiolab' i think. Apparently it is right up my alley. So that should be good. I'll check it out when I have time and probably post about it.

Sorry for abandoning you yesterday, I was really busy.

Chedder out
