i learned some of the more exact details behind my GF's "disappearance", she called me today while i was in a quiet waiting room of an office waiting for my sister, to tell me her troubles with apple, she will be able to text starting in 24 hours from an unknown time that day. her cellular signal reciever is bust.

she can call, but i've always liked texting better. my calls always seem to land in the middle of her busy time.

i'd LOVE a fish pizza :chef: especially if it had seaweed on it :chef: the Japanese have their own kinda pizza called "okonomiyaki" which roughly translates as "my favorite stuff cooked." among the many kinds are many with fish on them as well as seaweed, I've grown up eating it and it is yummy stuff :)

I learned that you're not supposed to scrub your face really hard with a cloth because it makes your face produce more natural oils than needed and you end up breaking out in some spots.

I've learned that taking a shower with cold water is really not that bad, as in some ways can be beneficial

I also know that the cold water is better for you in that it does not dry out your skin as well, it actually helps you to feel more invigorated
