snob-aroos
i got this email from a friend i used to know from fifth grade. she and i used to stick-fight each other pretending that we were ninjas.....she got t-birds and pink ladiez club going once, after seeing "grease"....yes i was recruited, though i secretly wished i was one of the t-birds....leather jackets, slick hair, muscle cars was more appealing to me than wearing pink jackets and lots of hairspray.
anyway....like most kids with parent(s) that are diplomats, she got to travel the world.....and now resides somewhere in canada with family etc......
so we've been back and forth emailing each other now and then thru the evil of myspace. (hahahahaha).....
tonight, i got an email from her with photos of the moon she has taken a few nights ago, with a ring around it.....in her email, she was excited and totally amazed and in complete wonder....why? how? what does it mean?
at first i thought this was some kind of joke....but as i read on, and thought about her. i realize, she was sincere....she has never in her 28 years, seen a ring around the moon!
after some thoughts, and memory of a survey she posted once......such as: the worse thing in the world for her would be: being stuck in a room with someone who didn't speak the same language as she.....and her dream cars were the escalade and hummer......etc.....
i thought....wow! we are soooo totally and completely different. i just can't imagine a day go by without staring out the window to look up at the sky....to catch a sunset....to see if there were stars or meteors shooting on by......
but then, i know, to some, i am completely weird to use a hairdryer, to dry spills, glue or paints instead of my hair......i am completely backward to have never use the dang dish washer machine in my kitchen.....(i think they're shit and one of the most wasteful and stoopid invention ever!)...and many more "retarded" stuff i do......
i am a snob to my opinions....and i must say, quite comfortable with it......
my diva friend thinks i'm rude, rugged and a kuntry bumpkin......hahahahahah! i'm sure there are more she thinks of me and laughs....
....just as she makes me laugh....
the differences in this world that goes around.........

Very interesting. And you are very right. People we look apon as snobbes, feel the same way about us, and we might just be that.
By the way, in Norway, a ring around the moon means that it will snow the next day and we have to use the hair dryer in order not to catch a cold in the winter, unless you've just cut it like I did this saturday.
use hairdryer so one don't catch a cold!? hahahahaha! interesting!
-the ring around the moon does foretell weather...i've heard a lot, farmers and sailors, fishermens etc...uses it as weather perdiction....but i must say, the dryer is a new one for me...though it somewhat sorta make sense.....
myths, meanings, or old wives' tales intrigues me.....
Haha, you never thought you'd catch a cold if you go outside with wet hair? Well in a country where we have a mean teperature of 10 degrees you will almost die if you don't use the hair dryer after showering. (this might not be true)
PS: If the cows are eating grass on the top of a hill; it will be nice weather, if they are at the bottom of the hill; not so good weater. (they sence the high and low preassure) Just in case you wondered.
wow! cows perfer certain air pressure, eh? someone told me, if cows are sitting instead of standing around, it's going to rain soon. i checked....it don't happen all the time, though i wonder if this has to do with air pressure?!
as for wet hair...come to think of it....i was on a road trip out west once in mid winter. I had taken a shower and wrapped my head in a towel before i went out....almost immediately, my hair and towel froze. it was the weirdest thang ever!
thanks for sharing ragge....throw in a couple more if you want...actually, you should blog it in your site to see more "true" myths..old wisdoms.....this shit is too interesting!
