I spent a lot of Sunday writing about my latest food bank adventure. It would have been a nice afternoon for a bike ride but I didn’t finish in time.
I looked at the U of T website to check my marks and saw that I got an A minus in Romantic Literature and an A plus in the Poetry Master Class. Neither grade was a surprise. I would have gotten at least a solid A if I hadn’t screwed up my first in-class essay in December by not including textual references.
I had three strips of bacon, an egg, a piece of toast and a beer for dinner while watching two episodes of the Big Bang Theory.
In the first story Amy and Sheldon are still trying to deal with the problem of the two media savvy scientists who accidentally proved their theory of super asymmetry. Campbell and Pemberton may wind up getting the Nobel Prize even though Sheldon and Amy did all the work. They decide to try to get the Nobel laureates on their side by inviting them to a reception but all of them hate Sheldon because of past insults and they refuse to come. Leonard and Penny go see them all and convince them to change their minds. But at the reception Campbell and Pemberton show up and instead of Sheldon losing control it’s Amy that blows up and calls them impostors.
Meanwhile, Bernadette and Howard’s daughter Halley is going through an afraid of the dark phase. To comfort her Howard tells the story of his time as an astronaut and how frightened he was but got over it. Bernadette overhears the story and is so touched that she gets the idea for a children’s book called “The Frightened Little Astronaut”. Stewart does the artwork but when Howard sees the manuscript he is embarrassed at how he is portrayed. Bernadette argues that in admitting he was afraid he was being brave and that this is a good thing for children to hear.
In the second story Amy is called into Human Resources at the university in response to her blow up at the reception. When she is reminded that because she could become only the fourth woman to win a Nobel Prize in physics and so young women everywhere are counting on her she feels too much pressure. Amy and Sheldon decide to try sensory deprivation tanks to relax. Sheldon has an incredible time flying through his own mind while Amy spends the whole time stressed about what is expected of her.
Meanwhile Howard decides to buy a scooter so he can re-experience the freedom he used to have. He tries to keep it a secret but when Bernadette finds out she makes him sell it.
Bernadette is played by Melissa Rauch.
My ex-girlfriend and I went into a sensory deprivation tank. It was very sensual because we were in it together naked. We couldn’t have sex because doing so would have exposed our genitalia to a lot of salt.
