I don't know if people realize this, but I do talk, and I do have a sense of humor of a sort... it's just that it's only with Darrell and Darrin that these things come out! It seems my frame of reference for the world is quite a bit different than most people's. I think the live goo game illustrates this rather nicely. Not once but twice, the first "celebrity" to jump to my mind was Bruce Boxleitner.. someone most people probably have not heard of. This was for the Tron question (because I could not remember the name Jeff Bridges) and the Scarecrow question. In the Irish section of the goo game, the top Irishmen I could think of were Dylan Moran and Aidan Gillen.... granted I probably could not come up with even these names on the spot. The Irish accent is so cute though. That's my new favorite accent. I think also in the Irish section someone mentioned something about the size of Bono's house?? This would have been a prime opportunity for me to say, "He has the world's largest collection of hatchbacks" but I did not, because nobody would know wtf I was on about. :P Anyway... the trip was kind of an experiment in whether or not the Prozac can induce me to act like a regular human being. The answer being... not really. But because of the Prozac I will just skip blithely on not caring what a weirdo I am.


edited to remove someone who is not even irish hehe

You aren't a weirdo!

Steve West | October 19, 2010
You're definitely different than most of the knuckleheads I hang out with but weirdo is a bit much. And you ate the alligator! How cool was that? Just as well you didn't try the conch fritters as they were a bit fishy.

Denise Sawicki | October 19, 2010
The alligator was fine. I guess it is something to do just so you can say you did :). I am sure the conch fritters wouldn't have killed me or anything but I figured I should let someone have them who really had a craving for them. I maybe should have ordered grouper with you guys. According to my research, it is a fish that people who don't like fish, like. But my popcorn shrimp were delicious and I can't seem to resist being a *little* bit economical, if I can get a giant pile of popcorn shrimp for the same price as 6 large shrimp then why not? haha

Denise, you mentioned feeling a cold coming on when you left. Did that happen? Mine set in last night, and I've been asleep for most of the last 30 hours. I'm still nursing a fever.

Denise Sawicki | October 20, 2010
Well it was pretty nasty on the plane when I left and my ears were plugged up the rest of the day (and I slept a lot) but it has been a lot better since. Still a mildly stuffy nose and my hearing is a bit weird. Perhaps this is too much information ;)

Yikes! Feel better all.

I myself am tip top. Should I feel bad about that? But I didn't go in the pool. The plot thickens.

People charging me money for nothing...

I guess the saga of me and numberonemusic.com is not over yet. They went and charged my credit card for another $59.95 Go »

The British know how to make TV

Correction to my earlier post - we have now seen almost to the end of season 2 of QAF (Darrell decided to watch it after all) and it seems only season 1 is really amazing. Perhaps it gets better again later, I don't know. Is it any coincidence that season 1 is the one copied almost directly from the British version? Go »

door to door salesperson

Well last night I had somewhat of a weird experience when this wacky lady came to our door to sell some cleaning supplies for $37 a bottle... I normally do not buy anything from solicitors but she had me flustered and I was cracking up at everything she was saying... Didn't want to send her away empty handed after her lengthy comedy show.

Cereal

Scott mentioned having 5 boxes of cereal - that is nothing, I just did a quick count at home and we have at least 25! Some extras might be lurking in other rooms of the house! It's quite unbelievable really. Go »

Cocoa spills and Larry David

In a freak accident, I managed to splatter my husband's entire mug of cocoa all across the kitchen this morning, 1 minute before I had to leave for work. I apologized a bunch of times and kept asking if I should call in and tell them I'm going to be late so I could clean it up... but he said he'd try to clean it up. Go »

Crazy day

More happened today than in my usual month I think... which goes to show you how uneventful my life is. So I don't think sleep is really going to happen. Go »
