Mixed Nuts

[GoofyDad869]

CJ!!! Don't tie Rella to the likes of me. Although, maybe you're right. Everyone knows Rella is incredibly sweet. Maybe I'm that other side of Rella...


Weren't you the same guy that said your life was boring a few pages back? This sounds great! I would love to go to DC sometime, even if it means chaperoning kids.

Rella -- help me if you see this -- BBQ or Southwest Boulevard Mexican for lunch today? I can't make up my mind.

-- Rob

OK. I guess I shouldn't have said 'boring' - in the sense that I'm not barhopping or going to concerts every weekend - seems to be the general idea of "having a life" around these parts. Also, I'm not padding around in a house 3x larger than I can realistically 'afford', or drive some expensive vehicle. Which is also the general idea of "having a life" in these parts, too. So yeah, I guess that's boring. I'm really not complaining - life is very sweet. I'm grateful for what I've been blessed with.

Lunchtime drive by. The house is clean (ish). ha


GoDaddy: I just thought of a GREAT idea. Since you have proven your worthiness as a chaperone of 12 yr. old children, I will make you a deal. Instead of meeting you and KAmommie in Knoxville, you can just tell dh and I all the good places to go, and then YOU can chaperone our team all weekend. I think they want to squeeze in Dollywood, does that work for you?


Rob, my vote is BBQ. I was in KC a couple of times. Sounds good to me. (for what it's worth)

Um. No. Except Dollywood is a lot of fun.

My biggest fear is being front page, below the fold of the Washington Post one day next week:

"Tennessee scumbag named GoofyDad869 accused of losing 3 children" Passersby heard the loser saying "I just turned around for a minute..."

We went on a field trip to the Louisville Bats baseball game. Stadium full of kids, complete chaos.

One of the dads lost one of the kids in his group. It was horrible. It took over an hour to find him. The kid had wondered off and just decided to park it somewhere and watch the game. (fourth graders).


Now everytime we bump into that dad at school, little league, etc. we always think "There's the dumb"person" that can't keep track of a kid" Poor guy will never live it down.

You forgot to add "Tennessee scumbag and Brad Pitt lookalike named GoofyDad869 accused of losing 3 children" Passersby heard the loser saying "I just turned around for a minute..."

Lunchtime drive by is over.

Cinderella duties await!

 

[Rella Bella]

Me

Rella are you admitting that Rob is maybe your secret alias?

 

[Squidrific]

Me

Rob is right! Maybe he's your dark side.

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Knock knock.

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Executive decision - the word of the day is "chowderhead."

That's all. Carry on.

Noted.

I fell asleep after the first 10 minutes.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Those of you who used to read Offenders might recognize the famous Mickey pillow (from the Mickey pillow on Rob's head shot after I got my dental crown) in the background. There are Row and Seat numbers on my tickets but I blanked them out in the pic so that none of you ladies would come out stalking me.
-- Rob

The Mickey pillow from the infamous dental saga!!! Glad it could make a second appearance. You're PMing me the seat numbers, right?

Monty Python sucks and it needs to stop raining because I have outdoor activites planned for this evening.

 

[disneymama73]

Knock knock.

Who's there?

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Who's there?

You really want to know? One of my special ed kids told it to me this morning and it's absolutely awful!! I still thought it was funny but I seem to have a warped sense of humor.

Go for it!

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

Go for it!

You're brave.

Okay, I said knock knock, you said who's there, we've got that part under control. Next part.

I eat mop. Your turn.

 

[babynurse1]

I'm not falling for it.

Hey Peej, Bye Peej.

LYLAT! Aren't you areeEable? DepP breath all together now. perf.

You're obviously well-versed in bad children's knock knock jokes. Depp breath. Sigh. Much better. Have a good afternoon, Trollop. Checking McCheckster hopes to see you later.

Even I got this without having to see the punch line.

You're sharp. I didn't get it. The kid was cracking up at me when I said it. I had to say it twice. Guess I'm slow.

Okay, I have to run to ballet. Later, offensive ones.

 

[PrincessJasmine08]

I almost forgot...Cheryl says hi. She can't post from the ship for some reason but she's having a great time and she misses us! Okay, I made that last part up, but how could she NOT???!

 

[GoofyDad869]

PJ, that was mean. I've been trying to figure that one out for an hour. I think I wasted my last two remaining brain cells in the process too. But, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer. And I do "get it" now.

It reminds me of some dumb things that happened to me...
When I was a poor student at UT, I worked in the library shelving books that people had checked out. It wasn't a bad job - they paid us to walk around listening to Walkmans and shelving books - no huge expectations on how many we could shelve, quotas or anything. During the summer and other slow times, we'd have other big projects besides shelving checked-out books. One of my favorites would be to move entire sections of books around to make room for the coming year's incoming books. Yeah that was fun. We'd get a big long train of people passing books hand-to-hand, all day, everyday for weeks on end. One day I was up on one of the ladders, taking the books down off the shelf. I accidently let one slip and it fell on the guy I was handing to. I did that twice in the same day. Now this is all a setup for my "joke"...
One day I had called my mom and told her about doing that (dropping the books on the same guy twice. We laughed about it, and then she said "You must work with a net!" I asked mom "Who's she?" (I thought she had said "You must work with Annette!")
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The other one is a story that gets told to THIS DAY. My name is Patrick, and in younger days most people called me Pat. Anyway, this happened when I was engaged to KAMommy. We were shopping with her parents for Christmas presents. I was trying to be on my best behavior - you know how that goes, trying to impress the future in-laws. We head out of a store and we have mounds & mounds of packages - and we get to the car. KAMommy asked her dad "Where are were gonna put all this?" He said "Pack it in the trunk." I was flabbergasted - I said "I will NOT!" I thought he had said "Pat, get in the trunk."

See, I've needed to clean out my ears for a long time.
