Meerah Shares Wisdom Learned in 2008

So, here I am.  Typing in this blog the wisdom I learned in 2008.  There is much to share, so stop typing your own blogs or checking your book of faces and listen to Meerah.  This is important!

  1. It is OK to go through your neighbor’s trash if you call it “recycling.” 
  2. It is not OK to serve your neighbors food that has been pulled out of the trash.  (Of course, if you do not tell them where it comes from then . . . maybe?  Probably no.  This has not ever worked for Meerah because her neighbors ask too many questions.  You try it and let Meerah know how it works for you.)
  3. Make sure your mittens are fastened securely when checking trash during winter.
  4. It is hard to find a goat around here.
  5. It is OK to pet the goats at the zoo.
  6. It is not OK to take a goat out of the zoo.  (Even if you offer them a good price, the zoo people still will not sell.  Meerah does not undersand such foolishness.)
  7. Zookeepers do not haggle well, so they call the people with the carts and loud radios to drive you out of the zoo.
  8. If the people with the carts and radios drive you out of the zoo, you cannot get back in.
  9. Even if you try climbing over the gate.  (Ppffpt!)
  10. Even if the nice lady talks to them.   (Pppffffpt!)
  11. Many months later the zoo will send you a letter saying you may come back to visit in 2010.  (Meerah will find her own goat by then.  Silly zoo people.)
  12. There are many things you cannot say at swimming lessons. 
  13. Walmart has good frozen burritos.
  14. Silver Dollar City is a wonderful place.
  15. The Silver Dollar City people mean it when they say a ride will make you wet.  (My poncho is now a lovely wearable afghan.)
  16. There is a spider who lives in the world-wide-web and eats Meerah’s e-mails.
  17. The spider never eats the nice lady’s e-mails, so they must be friends.
  18. Sometimes the nice lady’s brain is disturbed.  (But Meerah tries not to mention this too often because it makes the nice lady very upset and that isn’t good for her brain.)
  19. The nice lady’s children seem to have normal, undisturbed brains.  This is good, but we don’t talk about it much either because for some reason, this upsets the nice lady too.  Oh well.
  20. I hope the nice lady doesn’t read this list.

That is all.  Meerah wishes you all a wonderful new year.
