Talking points.
When you hear that statement don’t you think about about being responsible to lead a painful long meeting?
That’s sort of what I think.
Don’t worry- these talking points don’t require you to do any thinking, and I’ll try my best not to make this post too painful.
Here we go.
1.Okay you guys cracked me the crap up on my last post. Thank you for the laughs, I needed them. When did you guys get so funny?
2. Why is Grissom leaving CSI? Doesn’t Grissom realize he IS CSI!? CSI-Grissom= Nothing. Do you want me to go on about this subject?
...
I’m guessing no.
3. Before we entirely get off the subject of TV shows I enjoy- can I simply tell you how FREAKING HILARIOUSLY THRILLED Will and I are that Jack is back? 24 is so amazing. If you’ve never seen it you can no longer talk to me until you’re watched every.single.amazing.season. I’m not kidding (okay we can still talk but I’ll secretly think in my head that you’re not an American and have never watched TV). The first season is sort of slow but even it is good. Very exciting stuff. We cleared the whole evening for this show. Unplugged the phone, locked the kids in the closet, ignored Will’s mom standing outside the door… (what- is that wrong?)
4. I miss my sister. A lot. And it sucks. A lot. You guys are getting off WAY easy. This is usually so one of those boo-hoo bleeding heart type posts.
5. The ladies in my office are doing the funnest.thing.ever (no silly, we’re not going to Vegas- how great would that be, though!?). We’re doing this secret pal thing in which we each drew a name and for the next month will be someone’s secret pal. We’ll leave notes, little gifts, etc. Just little secret encouraging things for our pal. How fun is that? It’s the little things that thrill me, apparently.
6. Speaking of work, why can’t I just freaking be a millionaire? Really? I think this to myself every single day. Does anyone else?
7. Is EVERYONE in America sick? Why are we all sick? I’m snotting all over myself, my throat is yucky. I was trying so hard not to cough in a meeting today that my eyes started to water and I literally started crying all over myself- just out of my left eye. Random.
8. I’m taking my Christmas tree down this weekend. Yes- you read that right. Will and I suck. We were going to take it down last weekend, but well- we were in mourning, as you can probably understand. How awful is that? Truly? Talking point #8 deserves its own post, but not today.
9. I love my husband. I really, really do. I don’t tell you guys enough how great he is. He is so helpful to me and knows me so well. Did you know he occasionally reads my blog? Will, are you reading? Hi honey!
10. I had brussels sprouts for dinner. I <3 brussels sprouts. Who doesn’t, right? (ha ha) The trouble is that it way smells bad in our house now. Yay.
Okay- that’s enough. After all, we’re talking about little cabbages. Hope you’re having a great week! More to come (and let’s hope no more talking points)
Ok, I’m responding to your talking points partly because I have no life and partly because I just really like responding to things. Because I’m a huge dork.
1) I think I started being funny the second I came out of my mom...although it hasn’t really been but in the last few years that I’ve really put the finishing touches on my craft (and if you didn’t get the sarcasm in all of that...I feel for you
2)No clue. I don’t watch CSI...gasp! But my condolences for your loss.
3) I’m not a fan of 24. I know that is probable cause to ban me from your site forever, but I’m hoping you will ask yourself, “what would Jesus do” and act accordingly.
4)I don’t have a sister to miss...but I do miss Alf and dunkaroos.
5) That would be fun...if I had a job to have ladies in the office to be secret pals with.
6) Why can’t I just find a job? In the biological field?
7) I don’t think I’m sick any longer. It took a Z-pack, a steroid (and I didn’t even take it long enough for roid rage!), and an inhaler, but I do believe the bronchitis has subsided. I get the occasional wheeze, but those are few and far between and are getting fewer and further between. My only problem now is that I think my sinuses are dry and feel icky, so saline nasal spray is being used for that. But I’m sorry you feel icky...just keep an eye on it...and how is Will feeling?
8) Ours didn’t come down until sometime last week, so don’t feel too bad. You had much more important things on your mind.
9) Yes, we all know how great Will is. Heck, I knew that before you even knew him...my first semester in college (Fall 00), he and I were in OT Lit at the BSU together, and I could tell he was a great guy.
10) Gross. Nasty. No thanks. I’ll stick with broccoli or something else...no little nasty green gross smelling things.
