Relative Something

It doesn’t feel any different to me today. But it is Spring and they passed the Health Care bill. I won’t fret either of them for a while. Spring will taunt with warm days and then dump snow on us. The new Health Care laws will offer solutions to some, opportunities for others and provide plenty of angst for those who are in opposition of anything related to it. Mostly, I think it angers people who did not want to see the current President succeed at anything. In all things, there is both good and bad. For every rule, there will be an exception.

Just yesterday, my lovely wife was more than happy to point out one of my socks she found in the laundry that was rolled up in a ball. This being not long after I had clued her in that I was able to tell when she was stealing my socks for her own use because they turned up in the laundry all rolled up in a ball after she took them off. I don’t do that. I pull them off by the toe so they get a decent washing and drying. If there are rolled socks in the clean laundry, she has been wearing them. And how clean can they actually be at that point, anyway?

No sooner do I point out to her that I don’t do something a certain way, there appears evidence to the contrary. Maybe I should tell her that I don’t ever play hooky from work. It would be for the good of science, to test a theory. Of course, it might be best to wait until a time when I’m not about to take an entire week off for vacation. It will be best that I get an entire 5-days of work in since next week Cyndie and I will be in sunny (I hope) Florida to visit her parents. I’m sure we’ll find plenty of opportunities there to test my theory that for everything I can claim, there will quickly appear exceptions to humble me.

Just like opposites that attract, the more I learn, the less I know. You know?

Happy healthy Spring!
