amuse me?
Its blah and rainy. The bottom of my jeans are soggy because stupid me wore flip flops today and managed to pick the worlds slowest gas pump ever. I don't feel like filing paperwork.
So...tell me a joke? funny story? share something? I don't care just gimme something to read, please.
Re: amuse me?
Me too!! On the rainy, the flip flops, the soaking wet pant legs and the boredom. Blah.
I'm psyched b/c I finally got the motivation to put up a for sale bio yesterday. I posted on the DC board last night, and already half of my stuff is pending sale! Wahoo! Can't wait to have the space back and a lil' extra moolah in my pocket.
I'm sitting here waiting for our equipment manager to get off his ass and attempt to fix my computer like he said he would.
My coworker has a friend who has to give up two cats. I asked DH if we could take them and his response was not favorable.
My lunch was entirely unappetizing.
I realize none of that was funny or probably even interesting, but it did give you something to read for 30 seconds. I'll try harder.
Oh, someone suggested sporcle.com. I love it. I had several co-workers trying to guess disney songs with me.
I wish my stuff would sell! I really miss my closet. Its been over 2 years since I've had access to all of it.
Poor kitties! Is DH not a cat person? My lunch was very blah.
I need to go find out what this sporcle.com is!

That was me! I frickin' love that site! It's like the ultimate time waster. Plus, now I know like every single country in the world and exactly where they are. Thank you, sporcle for saving me from mundane work days!
Ditto on the flip flops and boredom. Add nausea from lack of sleep.
I have nothing funny, but I do have something stinky. Zumba was extra sweaty today. I was so happy to get a shower.
If we had maintained anonymity and my photo wasn't plastered all over the place, I'd run something mildly scandalous by you girls...
Interesting discussion though. How public do you think our postings really are? Like are you ever worried about random people in your life stumbling across stuff you've said here?

YES! I was about to post something on my local nestie board and then deleted it. It was a vent on a family member and her daughter got married not too long ago so then I wonder if she looks at this site... ugh.
I think we're more secluded here than some other boards. I know what comes up when my user name is googled and I'm okay with that. I'm not concerned with anyone IRL finding out info about me or what I read/write on here.
The number of lurkers on other boards is kinda disturbing though. I'm sure that there are more than a handful of lurkers on the knot who aren't engaged or even in a relationship and they just come to read the posts.

I don't really post on my local for that reason. And I purposely don't use close up face pics for my sig for that reason.
I was just thinking of this, though, with the SS post below. How do we make sure that random lurkers aren't just signing up with Elfster?
Ditto!!!
Joke:
A dumb Blonde died and went to Heaven. When she got to the Pearly Gates, she met St. Peter who said, "Before you get to come into Heaven, you have to pass a test."
"Oh, No!" she said, but St. Peter said not to worry he'd make it easy.
"Who was God's son?" said St. Peter.
The dumb Blonde thought for a few minutes and said "Andy!"
"That's interesting... What made you say that?" asked St. Peter.
Then she started to sing "Andy walks with me! Andy talks with me! Andy tells me..."
A young couple got married. On their honeymoon, they were very anxious about having sex because they were both virgins. Because of their sexual inexperience, they were a bit uncomfortable discussing the subject so they came up with the term "doing the laundry" to use in place of "having sex."
This made them both more comfortable with the whole concept. Well, the first night of their honeymoon was wonderful. They "did the laundry" 5 times that first night. In the middle of the night the new husband woke up, and he was ready to do the laundry again. He gently shook his new wife and asked her, "Can we do the laundry again?" but she was very tired.
She told him that she just couldn't do it again just yet. Maybe in the morning. A few hours later the new wife awoke feeling very guilty. What he had asked for wasn't unreasonable, and she decided she should go ahead and "do the laundry" with him again.
She gently shook him and said, "Honey, I'm sorry I denied you... We can do the laundry again if you want,"
He replied, "That's ok... It was a small load... I did it by hand."
This is so corny but amusing nontheless..
Why do you never see crows on the side of the road??
Because they say "ca! ca! ca!"
Told you it was corny....
So, I kept a tote with some of my fall & winter clothes over at my parents house because my closet is so small. I went to pick up my tote the day before yesterday and noticed that someone had gone through the tote. Keep in mind that my mom is so nosy and goes through everything.
I was going through the tote and completely forgot that I had a "toy" in there. By a "toy" I mean the vibrating kind! I'm so embarrased! I'm not even going to ask her if she went through the tote because I know she did and she must have seen my toy!
LOL Jen and Emily.
Deb -
Fingers crossed it never comes up in conversation!

i would be totally embarrased too!
i was more embarrased however when i was at home a few years ago and i went up into my moms room into her nightstand looking for the romote to the tv in her room b/c i was moving it into mine...yeah, i found a "toy" or 2 of hers and i freaked out!!! to this day she has no idea and i refuse to for any reason go in that nighstand again!
Laura talked me through the scandal. We decided that I might be a little batty and it's best to carry on life as usual. Plus she gave me a really good scape goat should shiet hit the fan.
Thanks Laurababe!
and thanks to all of you who offered to lend an ear. Laura was just the best at tracking me down IRL.
I like the idea of not posting close up face shots. Too late now for me though.

Oh here's one. I was just assaulted by a 1st grader. woo hoo!! The kid are red rage in his eyes. I was scared. I really just want my elderly peeps back who can't swallow. Please and thank you!
Also, I forgot to post something to amuse Nichole. Maybe you guys won't find this as hilarious as I did, but I think it's great:

Haha, I lived in DE a looong time ago, so I liked that too. Also, random fact, he graduated from the program that Jeff is in.
