So, yeah, this feels like it could be a good episode.

Speaker 2:

Wow. We don't have many of those.

Speaker 1:

No, so this has potential. Yes, I just want to say that. So now we have the pressure of that.

Speaker 2:

Right, right. Well, let's ease up on the pressure because, that ruins everything.

Speaker 1:

You ruined the episode. No, I'm kidding.

Speaker 2:

You're such a drama queen. We're all doing amazing, so what did you do last weekend?

Speaker 1:

A make it a tradition, a yearly thing a yearly tradition, a yearly thing?

Speaker 2:

yeah, it feels like you do it more often than yearly, but last year we went on two cruises yeah one of them with the kids and the other one without okay, okay, yeah this year we've only gone on the one okay, yes but we had fun. We got a really big room. It was a suite with a living room. Oh, suite, yeah, it was a suite, suite. Yeah, we had a living room and a bedroom. We had two bathrooms and a jacuzzi.

Speaker 1:

Wow, two bathrooms. Yeah, that's more than you have at home.

Speaker 2:

We had our own bathrooms. Like he stuck to his bathroom and I stuck to my bathroom. It was really nice.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I was really bad with my eating habits, but it wasn't so bad. No, could have been worse it could have definitely been worse, but I tried to generally be like okay, but I mean I could have done better.

Speaker 1:

You can always do better. You can always do better, you can always do better.

Speaker 2:

That's that's the theme for today is do better. But yeah, it was good, the food was good, I had a couple drinks and we danced. We went out to some live band on a stage Live band on a stage Obvious descriptions here. There was a stage and there was a live band on it and we danced and the band had like musical instruments Right. And they played them and the noise that came out of these instruments sounded really good together.

Speaker 1:

And then Some people call it music, right?

Speaker 2:

yeah, yeah and then the guy started to like talk in a weird flowy way and yeah, okay, so there were people on stage, right, okay yeah, they played music live. They weren weren't recording, okay, they weren't lip syncing. It was live and we danced. We danced a lot. So much dancing.

Speaker 1:

You were jumping around.

Speaker 2:

We were jumping around. We were also actually dancing.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

We were also jumping around.

Speaker 1:

We're kind of dance.

Speaker 2:

I don't know the names of dances and I don't know. That's what I have to say about that yeah, that's why I want to learn how to dance okay, you know, so you know what you're dancing yeah, so yeah, there was that, and we sat in the bubble pool a few times, or the jacuzzi, and then the next day we had breakfast okay and then I went to the gym.

Speaker 1:

It was a fun gym. Yeah, you sent me pictures I did you looked very lonely there yes, it was so nice.

Speaker 2:

there was a nice view of the water, yeah, and I was alone, so there was no one staring at me, and it had pretty much the equipment that we were talking about having in our gym.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

This is our gym.

Speaker 1:

It was like the best kind of gym.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was really nice.

Speaker 1:

Very cool.

Speaker 2:

So I worked out for an hour and I did pretty good. I did go to the gym last weekend.

Speaker 1:

Maybe I should go to that.

Speaker 2:

Just for the gym. Yeah Well, last year I went into the spa and this year I went into the gym, so maybe next year we'll get a massage.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, why not.

Speaker 2:

It would be nice to get the full package, yeah.

Speaker 1:

What will you do the year after that?

Speaker 2:

I don't know. Try to find something else to do.

Speaker 1:

I guess yes, steer the ship.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're going to run the ship. Yeah, mm-hmm what?

Speaker 1:

No, what a disaster.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, of course.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I don't know anything about ships.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

Let alone driving them. We did have our shopping at the tax-free shop. We we did our shopping at the tax-free shop. We got some alcohol. I know last year we did taste testing of the alcohols that we brought back. We're not doing that this year. I guess.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm sorry, I'm trying not to drink alcohol.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

Right now. Right now, okay, right now.

Speaker 2:

Right now.

Speaker 1:

Right now. I'm trying not to drink alcohol right now. Get down, get down.

Speaker 2:

Okay, okay, okay. So we did that and it was really nice. Everything was nice. We had a buffet for dinner and it was good. Everything was good. I did eat well, for the second day at least. Okay, at least when we went out to eat, like at breakfast, and dinner Okay. Then I made good decisions. I didn't really track what I was eating, but I took things that I knew I was okay, it was good. And then we went to the tax-free shop and I ate candy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you ruined it all.

Speaker 2:

I did. I ruined my workout, I ruined the diet and everything. So that's basically what happened.

Speaker 1:

And it was fun Very good. I had a boring weekend.

Speaker 2:

What did you do for the rest of the week? Anything exciting. I've just been working. What did you do for the rest of the week? Anything exciting.

Speaker 1:

I've just been working.

Speaker 2:

Has it been a crappy week, it has been All right.

Speaker 1:

Especially today.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

You had it worse yesterday, right?

Speaker 2:

I mean, it does feel like my entire week has been stressful and, yeah, all around crappy.

Speaker 1:

But we went to the gym on Wednesday.

Speaker 2:

Right, we did.

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

We did pretty good. Yeah, I'm happy with what we did there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'd say so. We biked and we did some weights. Well, maybe not me.

Speaker 2:

You did not. No, I put more effort.

Speaker 1:

I did the things with the lowest weight possible.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But that's because I don't want to build muscles, I just want to lose weight. I don't want to gain muscles.

Speaker 2:

Okay, Right now. On Tuesday we brought the bunny to get fixed.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

He had his appointment to finally get fixed.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, poor guy.

Speaker 2:

And this guy. It's so scary bringing him back and he's so tired.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, kind of sad.

Speaker 2:

He's sad and he looks like he's dying, and we found him laying in his litter box just sleeping.

Speaker 1:

Aw.

Speaker 2:

Aw, poor guy. It felt so bad for him. Yeah, but he's up and running around now. He's good. I had to miss lunch on Wednesday because I had to go home and give him his medicines.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

But he's good now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, good. Oh, and talking about pets, yeah, you know, we got one kitten and then, like a week later, we decided to buy his brother as well. Yeah so we have two kittens now.

Speaker 2:

So you're up to seven.

Speaker 1:

No six Six right. Yeah, and it's good for them to. You know, have a playing buddy.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't think the adults are that interested.

Speaker 1:

No, they don't like the kittens at all.

Speaker 2:

How have you been doing with the eating and stuff?

Speaker 1:

I would say I've been pretty good actually.

Speaker 2:

Eating well, not just eating in general.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, exactly, I have been eating.

Speaker 2:

Well, that's more than.

Speaker 1:

No, I have been eating. Well. I mean, I'm not on the same diet as you are, no, because I still eat carbs and all that so but uh, yeah, it's been good you're mostly trying to stay away from sugar and stuff, right? Yeah, not to overdo it yeah I did that before and, yeah, it was noticeable.

Speaker 2:

Are you still doing your evening snacks?

Speaker 1:

I mean, I have like yogurt and fruits.

Speaker 2:

Okay, it's not ice cream. No, like it was.

Speaker 1:

No, yeah, exactly. No, I don't eat ice cream, I've been good.

Speaker 2:

Good, good choices.

Speaker 1:

This is like the only energy drink I drink in the weeks now.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So Friday is a special occasion. That's why I like it so much.

Speaker 2:

Very exciting.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm happy when I drink that.

Speaker 2:

I'm glad you're happy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm happy once a week and it's now.

Speaker 2:

Good, how are you doing? I feel like.

Speaker 1:

I'm doing.

Speaker 2:

Sorry what?

Speaker 1:

How are you doing with the eating and all I?

Speaker 2:

started answering you while you were asking. Honestly, I don't feel like I've been doing that great this week. Coming back from the cruise. It's kind of screwed me up a little bit. The cravings have been high and my impulsiveness doesn't help. And in the department, department, Department.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, what's that?

Speaker 2:

The department that I've been helping out.

Speaker 1:

Oh okay, another department, another department.

Speaker 2:

That's also a reference for our episode, the other department that I've been helping out. They've been breaking records quite a bit, so we've been rewarded with a bowl of candy. And that bowl of candy, I've just been staring at it all week and it's been staring at you it's been staring at me and I believe it was yesterday. I was like that's enough.

Speaker 2:

I mean, my energy level, my sugar levels, felt really low because I had been eating candy like throughout the week, like every day, and it's like I'm going to do better and I was doing better. But yeah, I was just feeling so tired and I was like I just need a little bit of sugar, just like six pieces is enough.

Speaker 1:

Just like the whole bowl is.

Speaker 2:

Well, I couldn't have the whole bowl because a lot of it was licorice.

Speaker 1:

Ah, bleh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah bleh. So I was like I'm just going to pick a few pieces and I'm going to the good ones, all the good ones. Yeah, I'm going to sneak them into the aisles and eat them. Into my mouth to sneak them into the aisles and eat them Into my mouth and sneak them into my mouth.

Speaker 1:

Right, exactly yeah.

Speaker 2:

So I've been having sugar cravings.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And I plan on kicking that over the weekend.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, good luck with that, and doing better next week.

Speaker 2:

Well, tomorrow I'll be working all day, so it shouldn't be that hard I can't just run away and buy stuff at the Shorsk every minute?

Speaker 1:

No, but you also told me that you have been complimented.

Speaker 2:

I was complimented One of my good friends at work, not you, a different good friend.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she's not my new bestie, no, but we are good friends. Yeah, and I know her too. Yeah, you're also friends with her. I am, so should I be concerned?

Speaker 2:

and her, yeah, maybe, and her life partner we're friends with him as well yeah, and she was working generally like next to my area, and she was walking past me and she was like I can't help but notice every time I look at you that you look so tiny. Yeah, you look so small, like thinner.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Not like short. That's what I thought.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no, she meant that You're so short, she meant that I had noticeably lost weight, yeah, and that made you happy and Um compliments. I don't do so well with no. Because, I feel like they make me too confident.

Speaker 1:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

And so I feel like, oh well, I don't have to care that much anymore, I can just like chill out a little bit.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because it's noticeable now.

Speaker 2:

It's noticeable, so whatever I'm doing well.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And yeah, no, I can't do that. I have to keep beating myself up until I'm where I'm supposed to be. Yeah, but then again, you should like continue the thing when you reach your goal you shouldn't feel like you could go back to old habits either Right, yeah, no, I'm not sure how I'm going to handle.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, not as much. At least you can, you know, just take a little bit. Yeah, I mean, I'm not sure how I'm going to handle.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, not as much at least you can, you know, just take a little bit. Yeah, I mean, I don't know how do you go on with life once you get down to your original goal? Like after being so strict about your diet and everything. Like can I actually go back to eating what I like to eat, but not in huge portions?

Speaker 1:

like I would. That's the difficult part.

Speaker 2:

Because if I do start eating you know the carbs and stuff is all the weight and the fat going to come back.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah. I mean that entirely depends on how much you eat and if you stop working out. Yeah, those are factors.

Speaker 2:

So I guess that's what's giving me anxiety, yeah.

Speaker 1:

But it also when you lose the weight, it also feels better to work out. Have you noticed that?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's easier to work out when you lose the weight and it's actually more fun to work out than when you're big and heavy.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because that's no fun at all.

Speaker 2:

Are you finding it fun again?

Speaker 1:

I'm starting to Okay, but I still think I weigh too much to really enjoy it as much as I did before All right?

Speaker 2:

Well, we're going to get you there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and it feels even better when you can see the results on the scale and everything.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's when it feels really good and you just want to keep going.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's like, oh, now I should just, yeah, keep going.

Speaker 2:

And then it's like twice as frustrating after that when you slip up.

Speaker 1:

True, just for that temporary satisfaction yeah, anyway, we shouldn't talk about that now matias, you know what I want to talk about movies.

Speaker 2:

Why am I sitting like this?

Speaker 1:

I don't know, because you want to talk about movies I would.

Speaker 2:

Would you like to movie on?

Speaker 1:

yeah, let's movie on.

Speaker 2:

Let's make this quick. Okay really quick bad summaries. Today is August 30th. Yes it is Friday, yes, and we watched Lucky Number Slevin.

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

And Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Yes, oh, geez movies. All right, so I'm going to start with Lucky number 11. So there's a guy who oh God what happened. What did happen in this movie.

Speaker 1:

So Did you understand everything that?

Speaker 2:

happened.

Speaker 1:

Because, I mean, I don't know if I understood everything the first time I watched it.

Speaker 2:

I think I understood everything the first time I watched it. I think I understood everything.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

But putting it into words now in a summary is going to be difficult.

Speaker 1:

So Bruce.

Speaker 2:

Willis is in this movie.

Speaker 1:

Yes, he is, he's not the main character.

Speaker 2:

Thank you.

Speaker 1:

High fives. Yes, say that again. It was so good that you have to say it again and once again. Okay, I'm shutting up, you're not saying it. Bruce Willis is in this movie.

Speaker 2:

But he was not the main character.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I was just going to say that.

Speaker 2:

Oh really.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Because you already did.

Speaker 1:

Okay, yeah, three times Okay, character, oh, I was just gonna say that, oh, really yeah, because you already okay, yeah, three times also okay.

Speaker 2:

So there's this guy and he gets involved with these two gangster leaders yeah, right and so one of the gangster leaders had set out to kill the other one's son. So the other one wanted to get revenge with using this guy to kill the first one's son as well. That's part of it. And then it really gets complicated. He meets Lucy Liu and they have a thing, and what all can I really say to not?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and you don't want to spoil anything.

Speaker 2:

I really don't, because the twist is crazy. You would have never guessed. I'm not going to say much more than that, no, no. Because it's just, it's twisty, it's tangly, but it's really good it is.

Speaker 1:

It's a good movie.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's like it makes you think, but not in a complicated way.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

You know what I mean by that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Like it doesn't make you think too hard, but it twists things in ways that you definitely would not see coming.

Speaker 1:

Yeah exactly.

Speaker 2:

All right, I like the movie. What did you think?

Speaker 1:

I also like this movie very much and I feel it's so strange to see morgan freeman play this kind of character, because he's kind of evil in this.

Speaker 2:

He's a bad guy.

Speaker 1:

He's a real bad guy in this one he was one of the game leaders yeah, just that is so you know. Very unlike him, but yeah, it's a very good one. I'm on the same thing that I don't want to spoil the movie either.

Speaker 2:

So, so you know what? If you're listening to this, go watch the movie so that you know what happens and let us know what you think.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you do that, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

And we're going to continue, okay, okay with.

Speaker 1:

Hedwig and the angry inch oh boy, matias, go ahead.

Speaker 2:

I have to explain this first of all, was there even a story, or was he just talking about himself?

Speaker 1:

yeah, I don't know. Okay, this movie is a really weird movie. Oh god, they must have been so high when they wrote this one.

Speaker 2:

I will agree with you this time.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and yeah I mean it's about like a trans guy or a trans girl. He's a guy transformed into a girl.

Speaker 2:

Someone.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, kind of Almost Halfway. Yeah, they tried, didn't succeed very well. But A for effort, or whatever you call it. Maybe not A, yeah, f for effort.

Speaker 2:

That wasn't bad, actually, okay.

Speaker 1:

It's about the story of this Hedwig character.

Speaker 2:

And her rival.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and like the problems and she's talking about her upbringing or singing about it and yeah, that's kind of it.

Speaker 2:

And how she got where she is.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's such a weird movie. It doesn't have a lot of twists, but what I found kind of fun, though, is that there's a girl dressed as a guy also, you know with the bandana, and looked like she had a beard on. Really, that's a girl.

Speaker 2:

How did you catch that?

Speaker 1:

I was looking at the face and I'm like it looks like a girl.

Speaker 2:

No, I didn't catch that at all.

Speaker 1:

Oh, you didn't. No it looked like a guy to me.

Speaker 2:

What was their name?

Speaker 1:

The characters.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yes, jeshnik or Jess. This one, yeah. Oh my God. No, that's crazy. This one, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Oh my god. No, that's crazy, that is so funny. I had no idea. No, okay, no.

Speaker 1:

So I was thinking about this girl dressed as a guy. Okay, it looked like she had a beard.

Speaker 2:

Uh-huh.

Speaker 1:

And that got me thinking could you do tattoos so it looks like you have a beard?

Speaker 2:

Probably.

Speaker 1:

And then I'm like, yeah, that could work. And then I'm thinking, what about the hair?

Speaker 2:

Are you going to tattoo your head so it looks like you have hair?

Speaker 1:

I feel like that could be.

Speaker 2:

All right, that is an option. I guess it's very thin hair. Yeah, but it is hair.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but I mean it looks like I always have some kind of hair on top of my head so I don't have to look that bald all the time.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's an option.

Speaker 1:

But no, I don't think I don't. I'm not going to tattoo myself at all. That's just one thought I had during this movie, because, I mean, I'm not sure I really liked this movie.

Speaker 2:

It was so weird.

Speaker 1:

It was almost it was too weird for me, it was a bit too weird. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm not watching it again.

Speaker 1:

No, me neither. So did you have a favorite song?

Speaker 2:

I might have.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the one where she was talking about her angry inch was kind of funny yeah, yeah, it was.

Speaker 2:

And then the one that the rival guy was singing towards the end. I enjoyed that one. What about you?

Speaker 1:

uh, I think I like the one where she was talking about the makeup and I think I looked the songs up and it's called Wig in a Box. Ah, and I like that one.

Speaker 2:

Was that the one in the credits too? Yeah, Okay.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the first time I heard that one I'm like, yeah, I mean, I like this one. It's kind of good. That's more like my style. That was probably my favorite. All right, that's pretty much good that's more like my style.

Speaker 2:

That was probably my favorite. All right, that's pretty much it?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 2:

Would you like to take a break?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay, we're going to do that and we'll be right back, yep.

Speaker 1:

And we're back. Yeah, I guess we're back.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. I guess we're back. Yeah, that's kind of what I said that is what you said and I am agreeing, yeah. So what are we doing today?

Speaker 1:

History lesson.

Speaker 2:

Okay, it's been a while.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's 92.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so what would you like to know about?

Speaker 1:

Okay, so I haven't given this a lot of thought like I usually do. This time I'm thinking kids are going back to school.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

So I'm thinking how did school start actually? Uh-huh, the first school.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

And I don't mean like in nature, when people you know started to hunt, and stuff like that. I mean actual school.

Speaker 2:

Like a building. Yeah, teachers and stuff.

Speaker 1:

Yes, classrooms yeah.

Speaker 2:

Um, okay, go på magkänsla, uh, and stuff yes, classrooms yeah, okay. Gå på magt känsla. That's funny in Swedish yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm so funny in Swedish.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you are, let's see.

Speaker 1:

I could have said gut feeling, I guess. But you should go på magt känsla Right. Use your gut feeling.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay, but that's not as funny in Swedish, because that's not in Swedish.

Speaker 2:

No.

Speaker 1:

So okay.

Speaker 2:

If it was in Swedish then it would be more funny in Swedish.

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

But since it wasn't, then it wasn't as funny in Swedish.

Speaker 1:

You know, when I said it in Swedish, that was funnier because that was in Swedish. Right Makes sense. You know, when I said it in Swedish, that was funnier because that was in Swedish. Right Makes sense. Yeah, I'm just giving you time to think about the history. I'm trying to just distract myself, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay, okay, okay. So once upon a time there was a group of children.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

And they played with rocks and sticks and stuff like that. They had lots of questions.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

Okay. So they would gather a bunch of pebbles and be like how many pebbles am I holding? And then the other kids would be like we don't know numbers. Sorry, can't know numbers, sorry, can't help you.

Speaker 1:

What kind of question is that?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, like, why are you asking? The kid was really curious.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

How many pebbles am I holding? Because I'm pretty sure numbers are a thing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And also.

Speaker 1:

No one knows them yet.

Speaker 2:

Also, I want to speak to you without actually speaking. So if you could read my lips, then that would be cool, or in some other way, like if I could make markings on the ground and you understood what my markings meant. I want to do that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I don't want to speak to you.

Speaker 2:

Right, silent messages, yeah. So the kids kind of came up with their own symbol language.

Speaker 1:

Okay, cool.

Speaker 2:

And did that.

Speaker 1:

Did it start like secret messages?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and most of the adults, the adults, the adults, yeah.

Speaker 1:

And most of the adults, the adults, the adults, yep.

Speaker 2:

The adults didn't really understand what these kids were doing. They were just playing because they're kids.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, stupid kids, they don't know anything.

Speaker 2:

They're just playing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

One day there was this guy who came along. He was a big, tall guy. He had lots of muscles.

Speaker 1:

Oh, it was.

Speaker 2:

The Rock.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I heard about that guy.

Speaker 2:

Plot twist.

Speaker 1:

He comes along yeah.

Speaker 2:

And he's like I know lots of stuff and he just made things up.

Speaker 1:

Really, yeah, he's a man.

Speaker 2:

He thinks he knows a lot of things, but really it's just ridiculous. Yeah, but he's like hey, you kids, you have questions, I have answers. So we're all going to gather in a group tomorrow at eight in the morning and I I'm going to do things.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, make you smart, and the kids are like why are you up early?

Speaker 2:

They're already up that early.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so it doesn't matter. Yeah, but tomorrow I want to sleep.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, of course that one day. So they did that. They gathered in a room, I guess.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay, I don't know a hut maybe yeah, okay, I don't know, a hut maybe, yeah probably, and the rock was like.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to tell you things that are going to blow your mind. Okay, the pebbles in your hands. I have numbers for each of them. Okay, wow, and he was just making things up as he went. Yeah, he's like this one is called one and that one is two. Okay, Okay. The next one is three. Yeah, yeah, I'm going to go with that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, sounds good.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and then he noticed their markings on the ground. He was like no, no, no, no. These are the markings that you want to use, and if you put these markings together, they create words.

Speaker 1:

Wow.

Speaker 2:

Uh-huh, yeah, so you can write words like you speak words. You can write them down and have your messages to each other. Yeah, and he taught them the alphabet and how to write words and read the words so that they can understand, they can communicate in that way.

Speaker 1:

Did anyone like question? Some I mean some words have weird spellings.

Speaker 2:

I'm sure they did question, but he was like that's just how it is.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, shut up, kid.

Speaker 2:

I make these rules, I came up with this, and you are going to spread this to your children as well.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

They were like okay, and he also taught them music. Oh, okay, and he brought this weird instrument thing, this piece of tree with strings on it. He was like this makes nice music. And he started plucking the strings and they were like yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 1:

Cool sounds.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So then he had his like board on the wall and he put a whole bunch of lines on it and just started making dots all over it and he was like this is how you write music yeah, I know yeah, and if you put it out like this, then it sounds like this, and he just plucked some more strings yeah, kids are like that doesn't make sense.

Speaker 1:

It's like shut up kid Right.

Speaker 2:

That's just how it is, yeah, mm-hmm. And then he was teaching them science as well.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

And he was like this is a seed, you put it in the ground and it becomes tree. Yep, and they were like okay, and then it actually happened, yeah. And they grew a tree and they were like whoa Crazy.

Speaker 1:

And he's like whoa.

Speaker 2:

Whoa, I didn't think that would work. And then it kept growing and growing and it outgrew the hut.

Speaker 1:

Oh, oh. So he put he it was inside. It was inside, it was an inside tree oh.

Speaker 2:

It wasn't an outside tree. No, it was an inside tree. It wasn't an outside tree, no okay. So yeah that happened?

Speaker 1:

What happened to the building or the?

Speaker 2:

hut. The hut started floating there because it was being hung up by this tree.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, Were they inside when it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it got a little squished, but they managed. I think yeah, and then he would teach them history.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 2:

Because he's been through a lot of history.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

He told them about.

Speaker 1:

His life.

Speaker 2:

His life through the first and the second Thanksgivings, yeah, and Christmas and Easter and midsummer, midsummer, the big bang he taught them about that and the titanic oh yeah. Because that happened already at that time.

Speaker 1:

Before school? Yeah, of course.

Speaker 2:

And McDonald's.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Because that wasn't a thing yet.

Speaker 1:

It was a thing already. Yeah, they made McDonald's before school.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I don't know. In a way it kind of makes sense.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Valentine's Day, of course. Hawaii, the history of Hawaii, the history of bras.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's the one.

Speaker 2:

That was what I was thinking of.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.

Speaker 2:

Friday the 13th. Oh really.

Speaker 1:

We did that too. Yeah, we've done Friday the 13th. Oh, really, we did that too yeah. We've done fairly many of them.

Speaker 2:

Oh, pirates, oh, the first pirate.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that was a continuation. Oh, yeah, continuation of what?

Speaker 2:

The Friday, the 13th.

Speaker 1:

Oh, okay.

Speaker 2:

The guy poked out his eye and then he became a pirate, yeah, anyway. So he told all of these history lessons because he was a part of everything.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, of course.

Speaker 2:

And now he's off on a journey, teaching children and making them smart.

Speaker 1:

Okay, cool A question. Yeah, how about idrott? Oh, like gym, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, of course they did gym class.

Speaker 1:

It's the rock.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, that was a daily part of their routine.

Speaker 1:

Okay, yeah, so it's like these small rocks you're playing with, nah take these big rocks instead.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're going to count big rocks.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And you have to lift them.

Speaker 1:

And run with them and run with them rocks, yeah, and you have to lift them and run with them and run with them. Then when they were gonna play soccer, you have to kick the rocks.

Speaker 2:

So the kids always had like broken toes yeah, and rocks were a big part of his lessons, yeah yeah, did it like continue with college or stuff like that?

Speaker 1:

There must have been like doctors and stuff. Yeah, Because of all of the broken toes, I mean.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, they didn't really have doctors yet.

Speaker 1:

No, that's what he was teaching them for.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, with his science he did like basic first aid, yeah, and he'd only do like a couple couple of years, but then he'd have to go on to the next village. So the person in the group who caught on to most of the information became the new teacher okay, so he told them to like now you you got, you got to keep this going. Yeah okay, and then he'd go to the next village and start over for a couple of years.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah Cool. Did they learn how to swim as well?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because I'm thinking he's the rock he should sink.

Speaker 2:

He should. Yeah, you would think so. Yeah, but I think he can swim.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he's that good.

Speaker 1:

Huh, swimming rock.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Floating rock.

Speaker 2:

Well, he skips at least.

Speaker 1:

Ah, that's how he swims, he skips on the water. He's like, do like this and everyone else just plosk.

Speaker 2:

Plos, else just plosk, plosk, plosk. Yeah, and that's the history of the first squall.

Speaker 1:

Very cool. Yeah, it's amazing how good he was. Did they get like breaks and stuff, and I mean like recess?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Recess, recess, pieces, recess.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, is that break yeah?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and what about like lunch and stuff?

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah.

Speaker 1:

So did he make all the lunch yeah?

Speaker 2:

and he taught them how to cook, so that they really made their own lunches.

Speaker 1:

Okay, was it a lot of rocks?

Speaker 2:

I don't know, it might have been a little sandy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, this is a rock soup.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay, yeah, good, okay, let's end it with that. Okay, let's end it with a strong joke.

Speaker 2:

Strong joke, yeah Funny.

Speaker 1:

Anywhere between your entire life and just this very moment.

Speaker 1:

And are they also ruining your life? Um or is that something else?

Speaker 2:

I'm gonna say that the sugar cravings have been ruining my life lately yeah it's not just the sugar, but it's the carbs as well yeah, which is. Which is I don't know, generally in the same category. I think, yes, I think I don't know anything.

Speaker 1:

It's like the things that are really good.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the things that I love the most, yeah, yeah. That I've been trying not to eat.

Speaker 1:

No, exactly that you shouldn't eat.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I understand you.

Speaker 2:

But once again, I'm going to do better.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You're going to do better, and the people at home are also going to do better. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I mean me and our friend at work at the last break.

Speaker 2:

we were talking about how oh yeah, I wasn't there Sorry. I'm sorry what?

Speaker 1:

She was asking about where you were. I said that you were kind of forced to be at the fika pressured really yeah yeah, forced, I said yes because it sounds appropriate yeah, it sounds better yeah it sounds worse, that's right yeah and that you were forced to watch the other people, fika yeah, and you had cake. Yeah, you had some fika with you for you yeah, I ate them so slowly.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was like I don't want to eat all of these and she said, yeah, I could never do that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you know, just sit there while other people are just eating the good stuff. And I said, yeah, same here. I couldn't do that either. I would absolutely have a slice of that?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I was offered several times.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I was like no, no, I'm good, I'm good yeah.

Speaker 1:

It takes a lot of strength, let's just say mental strength, I guess.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

To stay away from that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

That's admirable.

Speaker 2:

Wow, fancy word, good one.

Speaker 1:

Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo.

Speaker 2:

Good job.

Speaker 1:

Keep that.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I will, Of course.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I don't think I really lost or gained. I think I'm generally in the same place as I was last week.

Speaker 1:

It could be worse, it could be worse it could be.

Speaker 2:

Everyone at home is going to do better, and that's my advice for you today.
