  • So when beds were held up with rope to support a sack of hay, a newly married couple would come to their honeymoon location and find their bed has be untied by family during the wedding. They would literally have to tie the knot to get into bed.

    Hit the hay, and hit the sack used to involve whacking your hay with a detachable bedpost spire to knock the bugs living in it down to a bowl of oil under your bed.

    Bonus: honeymoon got its name from the tradition of the bride eating honey for the first month of marriage to increase chances of conception.












  • It’s because you’re exhausting your mind and body at work and the background monkey brain chatter that ADHD gifted us with. A typical brain just says “I’ll do those later” and gets the work done and then goes home to fix their life. ADHD peeps like me, can’t let go of the “do it later” and just reserve it for later, due to impaired executive function.

    I’m 45 and prescribed a rather high amount of amphetamines which help me just say “I’ll do that later” and I can count on myself to actually do it later.
