Elvis or Ringo?

I've heard it said everyone is either an Elvis person or a Beatles person. Even if you don't listen to either, you still fit into one of those categories. I don't know very many Elvis people and I always thought I was definitely Beatles. But I was listening to some Elvis on my iPod the other day and I was having such a good time. I'm thinking about switching sides. Granted Elvis didn't sing a song with my name in it, but the Beatles didn't eat fried peanut butter and banana sammies either, so I guess they're even.

The Persistence of Memory

The other day my boss said to me (via IM) "I knew you were going to say that," which I find very annoying and which he has said to me before. Now we get along pretty well so I told him I didn't like it and he said I say it to him. This strikes me as odd because it's not something I say very often (and really only to Snowman). And when he proceeded to explain the circumstances under which I would say it, it sounded completely unfamiliar. I'm not saying I didn't say it, because I can't remember everything I've ever said. I'm just saying I didn't say it.

Open wide!

Angry Dolphin and I go to the same dentist (I've actually recommended many people to this dentist) and she swears she caught one of the doctors watching porn in his darkened office the other day. Hey, I'm all for porn, but unless you actually work in the porn industry, I really think you shouldn't be watching/buying/downloading porn whilst at work.

Brrr...it's July...

I just bought two coats on Overstock.com. Am I crazy?

If there's anything more fun than selling your old crapola on eBay, I don't want to know about it.

Look, no one likes human babies more than me, but even the cutest, sweetest, most adorable human baby is nowhere near as cute and sweet and adorable as the ugliest of baby penguin. I may have to move to the South Pole...

Owen Wilson recently said Rachel McAdams was one of the best actresses he's ever worked with. This from a man who has actually worked with the likes of Anjelica Huston, Blythe Danner, Barbra Streisand, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett...I mean, did he even see The Notebook? She sucked! If she's one of the best actresses, then I must be one of the best writers of all time.

I also did not know how to spell paraphernalia. But that is a hard word and I knew I didn't know how to spell it. But diagnose? That is lame.

I just realized whilst writing my blog I had no idea how to spell diagnose. Because I spelled it diagnos and I knew it didn't look right, but I had no idea how to fix it. I think it's weird that you go through life thinking you know something--how to spell diagnose, frinstance--and then one day you are smacked in the face with the reality that you have no freaking idea. About anything.

I can't believe I put that in my mouth...

I grew up on Maruchan instant soups and macaroni and cheese--just not at the same time. So when I spied this at the supermarket, I was understandably intrigued. Notice how the picture on the cover looks yummy and creamy. HOWEVER, when you make it at home, it turns into a truly unpalatable noodle cheese soup. It was probably the grossest thing I've eaten in a long time. I had to eat a whole bag of these, just to make the yucky taste in my mouth go away.
