For me, one of the weirdest things is this... I completely romanticise travelling, going to distant places and having adventures but nothing strikes me as more romantic than stories about "home town" love and all that business. And I think the world agrees:
1. The Hannah Montana Movie. Miley falls in love with Travis, played by Lucas Till from her home town. What is more romantic than that? He is a hot hillbilly and she's in need of being brought back down to earth. They fall in love. It's perfect.
I don't know. I kind of lost my train of thought after writing that. I apologize.
Well, yesterday we got our stethoscopes and listening to my belly gurgle has given me countless hours of joy. Unfortunately, I have yet to break in my stethoscope so the ear thingies are too tight and I can't use it for very long before it starts to hurt.
But seriously now, listening to my belly gurgle is far more interesting than listening to my heart beat. I will tell you why.
A heart beat is so predictable (unless you have heart murmurs or palpitations or whatever the fuck that shit is called). Conversely, your digestive system is AWESOME. I encourage all those with a stethoscope to listen. But you have to listen for at least a couple of minutes. Sure, at first it's just, "Burrr burrr burrr," but then suddenly, BAM, it sounds like a wave of gastric juices washing over the shore. It's freaking awesome.
