Oh man, I just had a sneezing fit. It was terrible. Well, I suppose it wasn't terrible as far as things called 'fits' go. Here is the ranking, from best to worst:
1. Sneezing fit
2. Conniption fit
3. Epileptic fit
I have a tip for people having sneezing fits. Rinse your mouth out with water vigorously, including plenty of gargling. Repeat until you are better. There. I feel like I've contributed something useful to the world.
That's Small Talk!
Oh! I'm thinking of introducing a new segment to this blog called "That's small talk!" I would record small talk that I hear or am involved in and then people in the future would have good insight into our culture. For example, in Calgary we were having a week of -30 C weather and it was due to clear up the next day. I held open the door for a woman at Starbucks (that's a global coffee chain, to you future people), and she said something like "Only one more day!" I chuckled knowingly but also nervously, trying to be friendly but also trying to say "Please don't continue talking to me because I don't know the small talk protocol and am just here to buy coffee and banana bread." Anyway, that's some good knowledge for you future people because you probably don't have weather or social awkwardness. I reckon you've solved both those problems. Congrats!
Did anyone else notice that I needed to explain Starbucks to the future people but not what 'Calgary' is or what '-30 C' means? It's ok, they won't care! All they care about is laser guns and robots.

- A future person asked me to put this comment on for them. They also said if you ask which encoding that is or why there is a k, that I tell you to not be so primitive.
