Did you hear?

(Scene: C and me standing in line serving at the food pantry)

C: Did you hear the good news?

Me: No... what happened?

C: Well, I called the doctor yesterday to get my lab results?

Me (anxiously): Yes...

C: They couldn't find anything! The doctors don't understand what happened!

Me: Wow! What did you do?

C: I hung up the phone as soon as they said that, because I know what happened! God healed me.

Ah, teenagers...

I was talking to a teenager a couple of nights ago, and she was telling how she could not wait for her birthday next month...

Teenager: I cant wait to be older, wiser and more mature!

Me: How old are you going to be?

Teenager: 14!

I just smiled...

Financial crisis...

I don't want to get into the numerous causes of the current financial crisis, but just share an actual conversation that may shed some light on what happened, at least on a smaller scale. This conversation happened earlier today while I was waiting in line at a department store.

Cashier: Do you have a credit card with us?

Customer: Yes, I think so...

Cashier: Do you have a gold one, or a regular one?

Customer: The gold one, I think...

Cashier: Would you like to apply for the regular card and save 15% on your purchase? (the 15% represented a savings of a couple bucks)

Customer: Sure! Why not...

Cashier: Let's get you started then...


No judgment, just an observation.

Another odd conversation

*Phone rings*

My brother: Hi!

Me: Hi!

My brother: Did you miss me?

Me: Hum... maybe...

My brother (laughing): Hey! That's my line!

Me: I know... How does it feel?

My brother: Not very good.

Me: I am just kidding! Of course I miss you!

EED

Kelly Ripa?

Me: I want to have Kelly Ripa's biceps!

JR: Cool! Do you know her work out routine?

Me: Hum no... I don't really want to work for it... I just want her biceps...

She laughs and calls me crazy!

EED

I saw you!

Scene: after the service last weekend.

J: Hey! I saw your video the other day. You are a star!

Me: Me??? Are you sure? Did I ever tell you I have a twin sister? You must be talking about her...

J: You are in church! You can't lie! You'll get zapped!

Me*nervously looking up*: Oops... Sorry... all right, it was me...

Odd conversation

Scene: some shop at the mall

Me: "Hum... I don't really like these sandals. You can really see my toes. I don't like my toes... They are so long! Do guys look at toes?"

My brother: "Trust me they don't! Guys are either attracted to you or not. Toes don't really make a difference..."

Me: "Well, what if you were kinda interested in a girl, but you realize that she has really long toes. That would turn you off, right?"

My brother: "If her toes turn me off, it means that I probably wasn't that interested in the first place!"

... Despite this convincing argument, I ended up buying closed toes sandals... Only because they were REALLY cool & comfortable!

EED

You might be...

... spending too much time at Panera Bread, if while attending your sister's graduation party, a girl looks at you for about 2 minutes, turns to you and says:

"Hey! You are that girl who always comes at Panera!! I work there."

And you actually recognize her...LOL

EED

So predictable...

*Phone vibrates*

Me: Yep…

My sister: When did you drive my car?

Me *sheepishly*: I didn’t drive your car.. What are you talking about?

My sister: Yes, you did. You know how I can tell?

Me: No! Don’t tell me… Did I leave the windows open again? I was trying to be sleek this time!

Busted!
