Top 10 Lists

May 29, 2009 at 11:32 pm (Funny Things) (, , )

Apparently mine are very popular, so it has been suggested that I do one once a week/once a month. I think I will aim for once a month because well, I’m not that creative. Also, I may only do Top 5 lists (sorry to disappoint)

Also, I need suggestions – if there is anythng you’d like me to make a list about, let me know…

To start and to make my friends happy – here is a top 5 list for tonight…

Top 5 Things that Happened Tonight:

1. We celebrated AA’s Birthday – Yea!

2.A bug flew into my pocket while waiting in line for dinner. I put my hand in my pocket and there was a bug that flew out. Very very weird and creepy. I promise I showered today…

3. TF called me a slut and someone else called me an alcoholic. Wait, maybe this should be on a list of the Top 5 things that mean people say, or the Top 5 things that aren’t true, or maybe the Top 5 reasons I won’t play Taboo again.

4. To make up for it I won the “Most Snide Comment of the evening award”  – When someone said, “TF, quit texting and play the game” I said something along the lines of “TF IS playing games by texting” Ok, maybe you had to be there, and um sorry if you were the receipient of TF’s texting…

5. Two people actually chose one of my answers in Balderdash so I finally got to move. I don’t remember the correct definition, but here is what I put that people actually guessed – Zopilot: The leader of a troup in Dungeons and Dragons :)

P.S. Sorry KA, you weren’t there long enough to make this one. Maybe next time…

Where did that come from…

May 29, 2009 at 3:42 pm (Random Thoughts)

So, um, yeah, if you hang a picture of your ultrasound on the bulletin board in the kitchen at work, I don’t think you have any room to give me a hard time about slipping off my sandals in the conference room.

I’m fairly confident that my toes are cuter than the inside of your uterus.

Thank you Self Magazine

May 27, 2009 at 9:48 pm (Random Thoughts)

It’s like one of the writers working on the June issue a month or so ago went into the future and read my post from yesterday about needing blogs to read and then wrote about it just for me. I just got my issue in the mail today and get this, they dedicated a whole page to blogs you should check out.

By far my favorite – Overheard in the Office

You should definitely check it out if you need a laugh.

I had the weirdest dream last night

May 27, 2009 at 10:07 am (Funny Things, Random Thoughts) ()

Before I went to bed last night I watched the My Boys season finale. Then at one point in the night while I was sleeping I had a dream that kind of continued the story about the young Cubs player that PJ wrote her article about.  I was not in my dream at all, it was almost as if I was just watching it on TV. In my dream, the young player ended up not being able to play for the Cubs because he wasn’t a Chicago resident (seriously – you’d think it’d be because of drugs or something else) Anyways, because he “cheated” to get on the Cubs, PJ was criticized for her article and fired from her job.

That’s really it. What is so funny about this dream is 1 – this is the second time I’ve had a dream about this show (apparently I’m a freak), and 2 – I wasn’t in it at all and that is very strange.

I am very popular today

May 26, 2009 at 8:43 pm (Random Thoughts)

Not really, but about 20 random strangers have asked to follow me on twitter today – granted most of them are spamers and all of them were denied, but still that was a lot for one day…

It’s a slow day…

May 26, 2009 at 2:41 pm (Random Thoughts)

So slow in fact that my manager is spending the day cleaning out the 1500 emails in her inbox. It totally makes me cringe to think that someone’s inbox has that many emails in it but that’s besides the point. I keep mine to at about 30 max before I go crazy (you should see my filing system in the sidebar)

Because it’s so slow and my office and inbox are always pretty organized I don’t really have anything like that to do today, so I am literally sitting here clicking from one blog to another trying to see if I come across anything interesting and funny that I should add to my Google Reader. I can use your help though – if you have a blog that you keep up with that is entertaining, please send me a link :)

10 Things I learned at the Beach – Part 3

May 26, 2009 at 9:39 am (Random Thoughts) (, , )

A continuation of last year’s lists (Part 1, Part 2)

1. I can predict the future (last year’s comment on part 1 – said that hopefully we will get the Maggie house next year – and we did)

2. If you have not played beach volleyball in five or so years, you will be sore and bruised.

3. Eric has really good taste in music.

4. Flip flops can just disappear (even when there is no one else on the beach and it is 1 in the morning).

5. The Snodgrass’ can be really really funny if you pay attention.

6. I am not the only person that says awkward things (Thank God) and this makes me happy for a few various reasons.

7. If the tide is really low and you follow the coastline and step through a few various “puddles” you will end up in the middle of the ocean.

8. If you try to explain this to someone they might tell you that you are speaking gibberish.

9. Not technically at the beach, but I did find out that a gas station in the middle of nowhere on I-16 has Emu’s and you can feed them.

And last, but not least…

10. Guys can be really incredibly nice to each other after a volleyball match and you can totally ruin it by commenting on it so they immediately start talking smack to regain their manliness.

AMENDMENT: I totally forgot about this one until we were reminiscing at small group tonight, and I didn’t want to delete any of the other ten, so this one’s going to have eleven:

11. Nathan can run really fast and will randomly just jump up to chase the beach policeman on his 4-wheeler, and catch him.

But it felt more like an hour…

May 18, 2009 at 2:21 pm (Happenings)

Last night I encountered probably the slowest traffic light known to man. It was about 1 in the morning, which made this even more annoying. I was just trying to get back to 285 and head home. Anyways I sat at a red light for probably 5 minutes before it changed and at no point in the 5 minutes did I even see another car in any direction. During my time at the light, the bank sign informed me that the temperature in this particular part of town went from 56 degrees to 54 degrees,  I listened to a song and a half, and I thought about running the light about 30 times. Better judgment prevailed so I just sat there and sat there and sat there, willing the light to change. I know if I had run it there would have been a policeman just waiting to ruin my night (and my bank account)

Finally it did change, right before a car on the other street came to the light. I wonder if they had to sit there forever like I did since now my street had the green light…

An Email too funny not to share…

May 15, 2009 at 9:07 am (Funny Things)

A koala was sitting in a gum tree smoking a joint

1

when a little lizard walked past, looked up and said, ‘Hey Koala! What are you doing?’

2The koala said, ‘Smoking a joint, come up and have some.’

3So the little lizard climbed up and sat next to the koala where they enjoyed a few joints. After a while the little lizard said that his mouth was ‘dry’ and that he was going to get a drink from the river.

4The little lizard was so stoned that he leaned over too far and fell into the river. A crocodile saw this and swam over to the little lizard and helped him to the side. Then he asked the little lizard, ‘What’s the matter with you?’

The little lizard explained to the crocodile that he had been sitting with the koala in the tree, smoking a joint, but got too stoned and fell into the river while taking a drink..

The crocodile said that he had to check this out and walked into the rain forest, found the tree where the koala was sitting finishing a joint. The crocodile looked up and said,

5‘Hey you!’

So the koala looked down at him and said,

6‘Shiiiiiiiiiiit dude…
How much water did you drink!?’

I updated the quote on my white board today – this one made me laugh so I picked it…
