wisdom: things i've come to know in this, my thirty-seventh year
1. i can clip my own nails rather nicely, making ordinary nail growth possible, whereas before i always thought a professional manicure was required. while such manicures are glorious when attended with proper products and professionalism, i can now confidently attend to my nails and cuticles.
2. baking soda has amazing and diverse cleaning strength and reach.
3. it's important to adopt a healthy attitude towards one's parents, as sometimes they can behave in ways that make one question the existence of evil, and whether what appears as "evil" is still part of g-d proper.
