A guy thing

January 31, 2008

A co-worker just told me joke that was in very poor taste. It involved an Indian, a sheep, and the implication that they had fornicated.

Apparently, I’m the only person in history that didn’t laugh at the joke.

“I guess it’s more of a guy thing,” he said.

I guess that makes me glad I’m not a guy.

Seriously!

Don’t you just love email forwards from the fam? Though I’m partial to the right wing swill I get from a certain uncle, my step-mom was obviously looking to bring it with this gem. And by “bring it,” I mean “prove that we have little in common, sense of humor included.”

Now I know, this is who I am: Single anxious female.

I guess all that O Magazine I’ve been reading was for naught.

‘Tis the season

November 26, 2007

Nothing gets me in the holiday spirit like putting together my mom’s Christmas tree for her. Here are some highlights from this year’s installment:

  • “Don’t spread out the beads like that. You’re making it look cheap.”
  • “Well, you’re not helping me when you make it look like hell.”
  • “No, leave the made in China sticker on there. So people know not to suck on it.”
  • “Do you think that star at the top makes it look too… Muslim?”

Notice the keen eye towards foreign affairs, perhaps hinting at that Economist subscription she’s had her eye on?

It’s stunning, really.

“With our technology we could spray a condom on an erect elephant,” he declared, not without a hint of pride.
