Look It! My first Post!
The real purpose for this blog was to allow me an appropriate atmosphere to vent my frustrations after work (or day after since I’ll be getting home late) or more importantly to share my happiness with anyone who actually gives a rat’s arse. I start my new job at the Funeral Home tomorrow at Eight o’clock in the morning and will not be able to leave until Ten at night, since I am expected to monitor the visitation. My supervisor has the sweetest voice I think I have ever heard and I know I will get along well with her. Technically I am the Receptionist but will be expected to perform all the duties that an apprentice would. I will be able to casket and dress the decedent, run Death Certificates downtown or Flowers to the graveside service or chapel. I get to make cookies too! For the visitation guests…not for me. I know I will have tons to do so I am not worried about being bored. The long hours might be a bit stressful at first but I know that I will get used to it. There should be a lot to write about my first day at work. I am so excited, I am!
Today was also my last day working with animals. I started last July because I needed alittle extra money to be able to buy a few nice clothes for school, but the job turned out to be the best type of job to have while attending Commonwealth Institute of Funeral Service. The pay was great because I was responsible for the lives of many exotic animals. The hours were very flexible and minimal, though just enough to give me a bit of spending money. Okay…my boss is very weird…he and his wife decorate their home with skulls and Adam Family paraphernalia, not to mention the Munster characters hanging by noose in the foyer. They are very sweet and talented individuals, but extremely weird. So when I left today I wasn’t a bit surprised to find that they were brewing beer in their drive way. I never know exactly how to say good-bye, so it was very awkward…and short. I don’t mind though, I need to focus on my new career and hope for the best.

Two new studies show why some people are more attractive for members of the opposite sex than others.
The University of Florida, Florida State University found that physically attractive people almost instantly attract the attention of the interlocutor, sobesednitsy with them, literally, it is difficult to make eye. This conclusion was reached by a series of psychological experiments, which were determined by the people who believe in sending the first seconds after the acquaintance. Here, a curious feature: single, unmarried experimental preferred to look at the guys, beauty opposite sex, and family, people most often by representatives of their sex.
The authors believe that this feature developed a behavior as a result of the evolution: a man trying to find a decent pair to acquire offspring. If this is resolved, he wondered potential rivals. Detailed information about this magazine will be published Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
In turn, a joint study of the Rockefeller University, Rockefeller University and Duke University, Duke University in North Carolina revealed that women are perceived differently by men smell. During experiments studied the perception of women one of the ingredients of male pheromone-androstenona smell, which is contained in urine or sweat.
The results were startling: women are part of this repugnant odor, and the other part is very attractive, resembling the smell of vanilla, and the third group have not felt any smell. The authors argue that the reason is that the differences in the receptor responsible for the olfactory system, from different people are different.
It has long been proven that mammals (including human) odor is one way of attracting the attention of representatives of the opposite sex. A detailed article about the journal Nature will publish.
