Things that I learned today:

Acetaminophen, when processed by your body, turns into a cannabinoid. Dextromethorphan HBr, a cough suppressant, is broken down into dextrorphan and levorphanol, the second of which is a pain killer five times more powerful than morphine. Both acetaminophen and dextromethorphan are found in Nyquil.

I love Wired.

I also love wired because I read an article this morning on vestigial organs, which wasn't so much an article as it was Lore Sjöberg talking about cool things we should replace our organs with. My favorite part of this article? The opening paragraph. "I spent some time at BodyWorlds 2, an exhibition of plasticized human cadavers designed to educate people who are not yet dead. I learned many things, but the main thing I learned is that the body is jam-packed with organs, much like a throbbing, oozing Swiss Army knife."

It makes me miss my Swiss Army knife (which hopefully I can get replaced with a really fantastic Leatherman for Christmas. Who knows). Lore is far and away my favorite person who writes articles for Wired, in part because of LoreBrandComics, which I used to read religiously.

I need to get back into writing, but it's much easier said than done. I am trying to do the same thing with sketching, which is admittedly much easier, especially given the nature of, oh, all of my classes. Maybe I'll try to do a weekly music review on this (which admittedly kind of forces me to find new music). Reviewing music would kind of bring this blog full circle, being that I started it for a class about music.

I've completely lost my train of thought for this, because my attention span is nil.

More to folllow.
