Collection of Things I've Said Today (Not Exhaustive)

Feel free to let me know in the comment thread if you've ever said any of these before.



1. Hey there. What can I do for you?

2. Would you like a big one or a little one?

3. I thought you were working Tuesday.

4. I haven't had to do anything today that caused me pain.

5. Mocha for Erica. Erica. Mocha.

6. Do you live around here?

7. I would try Salvation Army.

8. When I come back you better be ready to put in your order, otherwise you'll keeping doing badly in your job interview.

9. Oh, really?

10. I don't think anyone has noticed.

11. They'd be all like, hooray, we've finally penetrated the Muslim community.

12. Does that taste okay?

13. Oh, ok.

14. No, she was just a crazy person. A lune.

15. Hellooooo Kevin!

16. Whenever I lose my voice, I try to talk as much as possible.

17. It makes talking an adventure.

18. I was going to make a pie for his party anyway, so that could work out rather perfectly.

19. So uh give me a call and we can figure out a time.

20. Yesssssss.

21. Refill?

22. Your total will be $6.68 Jason Bennett.

23. And if you could just sign this copy for me.

24. How much are you gonna expand?

25. Do you have time to wait - I have to brew another pot.

26. But I know if I say like "hey it's too cold in here, turn down the AC" they'll change it, and I'll be all like "hey hey it's too hot in here." So I usually just wear a sweatshirt.

27. Hey, hows it going?

28. That shouldn't be a problem um I just need to talk to the employee who is working tomorrow. How many people will you have? Ok, 6-8 people is great.

29. Whooosh

(NOTE: The last one was posted on a gmail conversation. The rest were spoken word.)

Second to Last Day of Printing. They're, like, Haikus.

Ah, Yes. The open road. Nothing quite like it.
The fresh air. The rolling hills.
I do wish there were a healthier selection of restaurants along the way.
A-ha! I think I smell a business opportunity.
That's not opportunity, Dad. We're passing a cattle farm.

I worry about Sakura playing in the waves. What if she encounters a shark?
Oh, I'm sure we can find a marine biologist who can stitch it back up.
Grrrrr.



Who is our sponsor?
Me. I don't enjoy fundraising.
Alfie's dad said his company could sponsor us.
That's the other reason.
Money is Money.
Some money is more expensive than other money
Alfie's dad wants to know if you got Alfie that pro contract yet.



So...we begin another day of unending summer fun!
You have prepared some fun green popsicles, and I have chosen a fine fun rerun of "F-Troop" for our television viewing pleasure!
Let the fun begin!
Uh-oh.
Cables out!

I made 'em with string bean juice!



HEY! I SMELL RIBS!

1. Ow. My tummy hurts. Tummy tummy tummy.
2. I woke up today thinking the electric silence had settled onto my house because my alarm clock was blank and sad.
3. But my fan was going. So I was wrong.

8. I had a dream last night that I was wearing a really great skirt, but with my underpants down around my ankles. People would say "Hey, great skirt. Weird...underpants."
9. I woke up and sifted through my pile of clothes that's graces the threshold to my closet, and got embarrassed thinking about how I wore my underpants around my ankles the day before.
10. I was ashamed.
11. Later I remembered it was a dream.
12. Yesterday I had a lot of really interesting thoughts.
13. Today is looking okay too.
14. But not, like, GREAT.
