    Frozen Purple Monkey Dishwasher: Random Tuesday Thoughts

    randomtuesday

    It's Tuesday again already? Wow. Okay. Um, as I mentioned yesterday I'm not feeling particularly blogtastic lately, so I don't know how great (or random) my thoughts will be this week.

    (I am, however, getting more frequent with the made-up bullshit words. Blogtastic? Really? I think subconsciously I must be awaiting an invitational email from Joss Whedon's writing team).

    Ready to be underwhelmed? Okay...let's see what my frozen brain kicks out:

    I am so fucking cold. I know this is a repeat from yesterday, but Jeebus, every winter I question my choice to live here, my will to live at all, and my very sanity. And then, whoop! Once around the goldfish bowl, it's spring and I've already forgotten how much winters here SUCK DONKEY BALLS.

    I should probably still try to get around to returning those library books. They're going to be all confused, they think they live here now.

    Is it just me or does PeepALot sound a little more rude than what it actually is? Also, why did I enter a popularity contest when I've always been, um, differently-abled in that department?

    I should have bought a lottery ticket today. I won two, count 'em, TWO giveaways! Okay, so one of them I didn't read the not-so-fine print and I didn't qualify because I'm Canadian, eh, but I still won.
    Stupid border. If I won the lottery I'd look into having it erased.

    How big of an eraser do you think you'd need for that?

    I've now been at my job long enough that I qualify for an extra week's vacation. Great. I think I'll use it to plan faking my own death so I never have to go back there.

    Purple monkey dishwasher.

    ...there are like 6 entries for that in the Urban Dictionary. The evolution of the english language scares the crap out of me sometimes.

    Okay. That's all I've got. Really. Even I'm underwhelmed, and I'm usually pretty easily impressed.

    Pretty sure you can do better. Grab the button, post your post, leave me a comment and I'll link you up...if you can stand to be seen with me, that is.


    And people still love me cause they're on this before I even was!

    5. Becky at Suburban Matron, who's taking all the credit for her kids talents...

    I do not know how people survive up north. I'm freezing here in Phoenix and it is only 55 degrees.

    If you return the books then the librarians will be confused. You may want to wait.

    Drink something warm preferably something warm & alcoholic.

    If you get the email from Joss Whedon's team, let us know. I would love to be able to say I read your blog back in the day (we love Joss Whedon in our house, can't wait for the Dollhouse).

    I am so sorry about the giveaway. Now you have made me feel like a mean, old bully who hates Canada. You don't know how many times over the last 8 years I told my husband I wanted to move to Canada.

    I am cold too. And I am in Atlanta. It is pretty warm outside today but cold as a witch's tit here in my home office.Damn. *shiver*

    Awesome. It's not even noon and I've already managed to look like an idiot in front of a librarian, the giveaway holder, and THE purveyor of the mythical diaper cakes.

    All I need to do now is insult a client while they're standing behind me or something and my day will be Complete. ;)

    blogtastic, that's awesome, i'm going to have to use that word soon... :D

    Meh, I was up way too late last night ;)... I blame the wine... sweet nectar of the gods.
    You know, I don't actually mind the cold here as much as I do those occasional warm days where it melts and turns to slushy goo.... yuck. But then again, it's only -10 here so winter hasn't really kicked in yet.
    There's my random Tuesday comment ;)

    If it weren't for you random Tuesday thoughts, I'd probably never post. Look at all the good you're doing.

    And Michele, 55 degrees? You go ahead and shoosh now. :P

    You shouldn't need that big of an eraser. You could try white out too.

    I enjoyed that, actually. And I aimed for random today, but I think I hit "mundane." Care to start a weekly event for that?

    December 16, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterBecky

    Yeah, I have been feeling un-blogtastic as well, and I was also differently abled in the whole popularity department, and I agree that peepalot sounds dirty, but it reminds me of Elf when Santa says when Buddy sees a sign for "peep show" it doesn't mean they are letting him look at toys before Christmas and that makes me laugh...so anyway...

    Yes! Yes! Every winter I say "this is my last winter" and then winter comes again and here I am, yelling and hating it. And drinking.

    And drinking.

    green dog refrigerator...(just had to match purple monkey dishwasher..hehe...)

    I am in PA and come Jan I am seriously doubting my sanity for living here...I think forgetting how cold it gets is kind of like how you forget exactly how bad childbirth hurts..we might all move south and thus mess up the world balance in some way...

    and the giveaway, have a US person claim it and send it to you!!!

    I was out of town yesterday without a computer so i didn't get to post. I do have to say I think I love you more than I already did, which terrifies me. Joss Wheadon is my hero. Buffy is the shit (so's Angel, Firefly, Dr Horrible and every other thing he thinks about ever). You are a goddess.

    P.S. Got and approved your comment, crashed my system and lost it in the restore. For the record, the skirt worked. I didn't have anything under it ;)

    December 17, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterJulie@Cool Mom Guide

    Ok. I am smiling! Blogtastic! That ranks up there with Craptastic! I am trying to remember where I heard that...anyway! Sorry about the giveaway! I have a great remedy! Peppermint Martini Punch! Makes all the world right again...

    I always do the same thing with summers in FL, curse the entire fucking thing and then winter (we go from summer to winter then back to summer) rolls around and I suddenly love it here again.
    How the F do they not let you win if you're Canadian?
