More things that make me laugh

Seeing my recent contribution to cakewrecks made the cut…

 Yup, those are real cakes so artfully arranged at the local FarmFresh. Yum!

A few other random things:

• Smodcast- I have written about this before. I just can never get over how such a scatological, pot fueled, dick-centric podcast can make me laugh so hard. I mean, I have never watched a Judd Apatow movie precisely because I think it would be described by the aforementioned descriptors. And yet….
• Scurvy Monkey Podcast - somewhat as above. I mean, it’s more “guy”-centric and if they are smoking, well, I have no knowledge of that. But they too are cracking me up, between the random discussions about death and dying, 5 things that remind me of my BFF (the porkchop incident?) and occasional Disney references.  Apparently, they share a listenership with the podcast I do. That I can’t quite figure out, but then again… random + co-hosts you can’t tell apart (I know one is a “monkey” thats it).. OK! similarities!

the saga has begun…..

i am home

walked in the door about 45 minutes ago. downloading, oh, about 46 new podcast episodes and weeding through junk mail before a much anticipated and deserved nap occurs in mere moments.

i have much to talk about and share.

for now let me say that if i thought mousefest put me over the top of the whole “i love you, man!!!!” deal, consider it topped.

• i finished the half. defintiely not at the pace i had begun training for at the beggining of the year, but much better than last year, i did my run 2 minutes, walk 1 for most of the course and have nary a blister. although i can no loinger flex at the hip joints. still.
• friends buy you a dole whip float. good friends sneak you in a side car. REALLY good friends bring you double fly swatter action to keep away rogue bees.
• i got more tidbits, treats, gifts and cards than a girl deserves. just looking over at them now makes me tear up.
• i had a WONDERFUL trip

weird dreams

i woke up this morning from quite fitful sleep – tossy turny, shivering, sweating, you-left-the-A/C-on about 32-degrees-all-night sleep… and woke up with that feeling again of being really sad (probably sad i was freezing to death).

all i remember though, is that the dream involved magic meets, chris farley (my date for the week end), bad eighties hair cuts for men, autographed pictures of a certain dinosaur ride and the dream team auction.

note to self: NO MORE listening to mongello before you go to sleep…

so i’m a sucker for dancing stormtroopers…

sad but true

i’m postin’ a link to my other blog, where i post a link to my bff’s blog. because it is completely embarrassing! and yet enjoyably so!
