I Blame it on the Pink

[elrhiarhodan]

I think it's because I'm not wearing black today (well, except for my watch, my shoelaces and my underpants), but my thoughts were definitely on the bizarre side this morning.

A random sample:

"I'm running late, so let's take the route to the highway with the most lights and make sure we're behind drivers who don't believe in making a right on red when there's no on-coming traffic." Yes, that's literally what I was thinking as I stopped for the sixth traffic light.

I'm wearing something that's not my winter coat, so I'm humming, "I feel pretty, oh so pretty." I catch a glimpse of my face framed by wispy gray hair and think, "NO."

It's Wednesday, and that means two things: It's HUMPPPPPPPPPPPPP DAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! (earworms you for that Geico commercial) and Wednesday is Sundae at Carvel. At 7:32 AM, I wanted chocolate soft serve with extra sprinkles.

Passing the Bekins Van Lines truck, which has the annoying "How's My Driving" sign pasted on the back. "Like an asshole." Actually, I was thinking that he was driving like Michael Schumacher, but that was mean.

Passing by the time and temperature sign, which read 31 degrees, I had to wonder if there was more snow in forecast, and if so, who do I need to call to stop this. Then I remembered that it was supposed to be over sixty today and I wanted to know who I needed to call to stop that.

Apparently, "Box of Birds" is New Zealand slang for feeling very good. Why?

And of course, the ever confounding, eternal question:

Why is Matt Bomer so pretty?

You're always pretty, but especially in pink. :)


HUMP DAAAY!!! :D



(this one's new for me, but made me LOL)

Ya know, if that truck driver really drove like Michael Schumacher, then...he wouldn't be moving much. Dude's still in a coma, after all. But I know what you mean, and don't you just love drivers like that? *headdesk*

Please remember to call whoever's responsible and make sure to order that snowstorm I want in May. Thanks!

Mmmm...pretty Bomer is so pretty! *ogles*

[elrhiarhodan]

Yes, pretty Bomer is exceedingly pretty. Why, oh why? I need to explore this phenomenon much further.

And yeah, I meant that about the truck driver and M. Schumacker...the truck was going about 25mph and the rest of the traffic, about three times that. I am VERY mean.

And if I can't get you snow, will you settle for Carvel's?

[sinfulslasher]

WE NEED FIELD STUDIES! I wonder where I could acquire a Bomer for research purposes...

Ah, gotcha. I thought you meant he drove like a complete maniac. Maybe it's because I'm used to such drivers here... Honestly, I'm surprised the coma news traveled that far...

Hmm, what's Carvel's? If I can't build a snowman with it, I don't want it. *g*

[elrhiarhodan]

Actually, Schumacker's accident and his progress (or lack thereof) was front page news for quite a while.

Carvel's is soft-serve ice cream. I guess you could build a snowman out of it.

Or I could get you a snowman shaped ice cream cake:

ETA: The reference to Carvel's is an old and obscure one. Back in my distant childhood, the founder of the chain, Tom Carvel, used to do his own commercials, and one of them was "Wednesday is Sundae at Carvel" - a two-for-one promotion. He was an old guy with a very distinctive (and most unpleasant) voice:

Oh man, I remember those commercials from the early 80s! They were frustrating because we didn't actually HAVE Carvel stores where I lived, but we got channel 11 out of NYC. They also advertised a lot of cool-sounding summer camp programs that totally didn't pick up where I lived. LOL

[elrhiarhodan]

I remember that summer camp program - it was tasty...

[sinfulslasher]

OMG THAT SNOWMAN ICE CREAM CAKE IS MINE! ALL MINE!!! *wants*

[elrhiarhodan]

We shall endeavor to supply.

[sinfulslasher]

\o/

Remember, we gonna go supermarket exploring anyway. Good thing your car's got a nice big trunk. *g*

[elrhiarhodan]

Yup...and there's a new alehouse by me. I don't know if it's also a brewery, but anything's possible. They just rebuilt the building from the ground up.

[sinfulslasher]

I spent, like, four days with you and it already drove you to alcohol... *g*

Hmm, we might just have to check out that alehouse. *makes note on to-do list*
