Lessons Learned

1. Traveling with someone is much more enjoyable when I'm not solely responsible for packing, and don't get blamed for anything forgotten or left behind.
2. Sharing a full size bed with another person is actually physically possible (who knew?).
3. The Ikea store layout is designed to cull the weak.
4. No one else where I work understands how to perform basic math on fractions. I finally convinced them that you can't just add, subtract, or average fractions (or averages, or percentages), and then they argue when I say I can subtract one average from another to get the number we want. "You can't just subtract, they're averages." "They have the same denominator, so I can pretty much do whatever I want." "But... they're averages." *Sigh* "Let's go over this whole 'denominator' thing again shall we?"
