10 Things I Learned From My Brother
You may have noticed the new header on my blog. Featured in 2 of the pictures (along with me) is my brother, Brian. Please take a moment to oh and ah over how adorable we were. “ohhhhhh, ahhhhh”
Done? already? But, I’m covered in chocolate pudding and enjoying it immensely! And did you see the one where I’ve got my butt up in the air?
So, taking a page from Tammi, I’m posting about 10 things I learned from my brother (Hi BooBoo!!!) I couldn’t completely copy her, being that I don’t have a sister. (well, I have 2 stepsisters, but I’ve only met them once.)
10 Things I Learned from My Brother
- Dryer lint is an accelerant. You can use it to start or rekindle a hesitant fire.
- Lifting your middle finger and putting the rest down is called “flipping the bird.” Don’t show your dad.
- How to build a computer.
- A fantastic line of expletives that I simply cannot post. but it still makes me laugh. (and yes, i will recite it for you if you ask)
- Cheap whiskey isn’t so bad.
- How to drive a car with manual transmission. (yeah, I was careful on that wording because I just don’t do incest jokes…a lot.)
- You’re the “social” Leas child. Scary since you’re an introvert.
- How to change your oil and pretty much any and all car maintainence that you pretend you don’t know.
- What all those noises are on the airplane.
- How to pack a car.

Wow, a blog post devoted to me. I’m not sure I taught you that cheap whiskey isn’t so bad. At this point in my life just about any hard alcohol is bad. Everything else is true though.
this may become a series
I still need to dig up the picture of you in the kitchen when you were like 2 doing that little dance in your choo-choo shirt.
What ARE all those noises on the airplane? Specifically, that thumping sound like someone is trying to escape from a hold under our feet. I always think it must be the landing gear until I realize, we aren’t landing.
I’m not exactly sure what that noise would be. Could be the auxillary power unit, hydraulics, flaps being extended or retracted, landing gear or just plain noise from the plane flying through turbulence.
See! He knows what the noises are!
I still remember sitting on the plane- United Airlines blue and orange were abundant and I’d never been on a plane before; just a lot of Greyhound buses, but that’s another blog entry for another time. We were flying to California for Christmas weren’t we? Was that the last Christmas we both spent with Dad?
I think it was. I think we should try to get everyone together in California for Christmas this year.
Yeah, I think we should too.
