Day 4 - Obedience Day
"Obedience is a skill. Exercise it today by following these simple dictates and you'll find the rest of the Book easier to obey."
Speak extra loud to people with names beginning with R today.
I had trouble thinking of anyone whose name begins with R...
Walk slower if shorter than the person walking next to you.
I didn't walk with anyone today.
Refuse to answer any question where the words "you" and "with" are used.
It was so automatic to answer I just couldn't make my mind accept this.
Do not accept change if less than 30 cents.
Happy Tip-Jar day to you too!
Feign not to see people wearing red.
I wore a red sweater (because it isn't Friday) and pretended I was invisible. To speak with people I had to remove my sweater.
Stay indoors if clouds are heading east or south.
Cross the road whenever a passerby makes eye contact.
Clip out all newspaper headlines featuring the word "global" and paste them above your desk.
I really wanted to do this but I totally forgot this one. Will do tomorrow.
Order the fifth most expensive item on the menu.
Didn't order anything today. Well, except coffee but you just dont' fuck with coffee.
Introduce yourself to anyone named Bob.
Didn't meet a Bob.
Drive at 36 miles per hour exactly.
I wish I had a choice about this. Traffic really, really sucks lately. I'd be lucky if we got to 36 at any given point.
Pick up the phone after 5 rings.
I tried, but it defaults to voicemail. Darn...
Do not use the letter 'd' in any correspondence.
Use only the buttons on the top half of your remote control.
I cheated and turned it upside down. I only use the top buttons anyway.
Increase central heating temperature by 1 degree every hour.
Thankfully, my house is too old to have central heating. It has a heater. The thermometer seems to be broken so we have "on" and "off".
Only use words invented before 1979.
Try explaining file-naming conventions like this. "You know, the thing that you call it..."
Speak to a minimum of 9 people an hour.
As much as I despise it, I do this during the course of work most every day.
Proffer your leg as a lamp post to any passing dog.
Didn' t see any puppies today.
Chew every mouthful a dozen times before swallowing.
Haven't eaten yet but I will surely masticate properly when I do.
Leave the room if anyone with the same first name as you is mentioned.
