Let it SMOW, let it SMOW, let it SMOW . . .
The chemistry exam wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting.
This would be because I wasn't expecting a chemistry exam at all, but, what can you do. Good thing I can do redox and equilibria in my sleep by now.
And on an entirely different topic, would anyone be capable and willing to translate this line or something resembling it into Hebrew for me?
"I throw shapes. I set them up. I watch them fall."
Or even just the last two sentences would do. I know nothing about Semitic languages except the alphabets and some naming elements, unfortunately. May just end up putting it in church Latin, sigh.
And while I'm at it might as well do that
1. A body of water, smaller than a river, contained within relatively narrow banks?
Plead technical knowledge. Stream is the scientific term. Usually I just go by whatever's on the map, branch or brook or creek or run or what-have-you.
2. What's the thing you push around the grocery store/supermarket?
Cart.
3. A metal container to carry a meal in?
Lunchbox. Or lunchpail, if it's bucket-shaped.
4. The thing that you cook bacon and eggs in?
frying pan.
5. The piece of furniture that seats three people?
Sofa, couch if I'm writing, or occasionally davenport.
6. The device on the outside of the house that carries rain off the roof?
Gutters.
7. The covered area outside a house where people sit in the evening?
Porch.
8. Carbonated, sweetened, non-alcoholic beverages?
Soda, or soda-pop if I'm around Ohio people.
9. A flat, round breakfast food served with syrup?
Pancakes.
10. A long sandwich designed to be a whole meal in itself?
Dagwood! or sub sandwich.
11. The piece of clothing worn by men at the beach?
Swimsuit, generally . .
12. Shoes worn for sports?
Er. Depends on the sport.
13. Putting a room in order?
Clean it or tidy it.
14. A flying insect that glows in the dark?
Lightning bug.
15. The little insect arthropod that curls up into a ball?
Roly-poly.
16. The children's playground equipment where one kid sits on one side and goes up while the other sits on the other side and goes down?
Seesaw.
17. How do you eat your pizza?
Depends on how limp and or cold it is. Often I end up eating it as if it were pasta, in the dining hall.
18. What's it called when private citizens put up signs and sell their used stuff?
Yard sale. Garage sale, flea market, rummage sale, and a couple others are also specific terms for similar sales. Um, I should probably plead technical knowledge again.
19. What's the evening meal?
Dinner or supper.
20. The thing under a house with the furnace and perhaps a rec room are?
Basement. A cellar is not habitable.

btw, I didn't really mean to vent at you. It just kind of.. happened. Of course, you were the first person I talked to since the doctor this morning.. I think by the third person I managed to calm down a bit. A bit. Yay for overwrought hysterics.
