29 Points for One Tit

Update 9/16 - 9/22

On Tuesday, I went to see X & Blondie at Marymoor.  I had no idea that Debbie Harry was 68 and still rockin' it!  The beauty of this concert was that, I paid 12.50 for the tickets, so as soon as we started getting sleepy, we just left.  Plus, we were only ten minutes from home which meant there were only 15 short minutes between when we decided we were tired, and when we had access to our beds.   I was going to say something about if this was the highlight of the concert then I must be getting old - but those of you who know me, know, this would have made me just as overjoyed at 16. 

Speaking of teenagers, apparently the cool kids at like to yell "Hawk" in the halls, and then everyone will respond with "Sea."  I tried to explain to Lucas that makes no sense, and it should be "Sea" and then "Hawk" but I don't think he has any intentions of passing on my wisdom. 

Lucas: These are the same guys that hump my car.

Me: The hump your car?

Lucas: Yeah, like on my way out of the parking lot, they run up and hump my car.

Me: Teenagers.

I have a tendency to say hello enthusiastically.  It takes remarkably little effort and it makes people happy.  This is a big change from when Matt S. taught me how to greet people with a head nod like a thug.  Anyway, the other day, I'm at work, and I see a co-worker - now, I don't really know this person's name or anything, but I recognize that we are indeed co-workers - and I give him a bright and cheery, "HI!"  Immediately after that, I saw another co-worker, and without thinking I gave another, equally cheery, "HI!" This is when the first co-worker said, "I don't feel very special now."  Which is sad, but unavoidable.

I received a phone call from my mother, and she could hardly speak she was laughing so hard.  What I gathered, through the giggles, was that my mother was playing Words with Friends with my friend Kristy.  Only when my mom plays Words with Friends, she plays under my father's account.  She played the word "TIT" for 29 points and immediately messaged Kristy saying, "If I got 29 points for one tit, imagine if I had two!"  Then she called me to tell me what had happened, and to say that she never clarified who Kristy was playing with, so she probably thought my father sent that message to her.  Classy. 

Jordan: Did you know that the heads on Easter Island go all the way into the ground?

Lucas: I did know that.  I learned all about Easter Island extending into the ground like a PEZ dispenser from Far Side.

Me: Lucas, I don't know if we're going to be able to do your mouse/hot water trick when we move.

Jordan: What trick?

Lucas: You know, is one of Lucia 282 Rules of Life.  It'll start with, first, build your kitchen this way... 

Lucas on Dawson's Creek: This show is amazing! I have not been disappointed yet.

Lucas, on quoting Dawson on his thoughts about Joey:  You don't want her, but you don't want anyone else to have her.  That really is just like a sister!

I can't remember if I mentioned to you that Dawne was trying to empty the storage unit, and when she did, it turned out that the moisture had caused the cardboard to bend.   The bent cardboard then pushed against the door breaking it, and Dawne and the Storage Unit owner had to take a jack to open the door.  Then, Dawne proceeded to crawl into the unit.  Eventually, Dawne and Zach had immediately remove 5,000 edoc shirts and bring them to value village, where you can now find them for a steal.  As sad as this was, I can't say that this ending didn't fall right in line with the rest of edoc's depressing history. 

Hoping to catch up real soon!
