So apparently there was an earthquake this morning? I got to work and someone was all, "did you feel the earthquake?" and I said, " . . . huh?" I'm not so eloquent first thing in the morning, you see. But I guess around 5:30 this morning, while I was sleeping, the earth moved. I still find it hard to believe, because I'm a really light sleeper (seriously, I will wake up if you even think about looking at me), and I felt nothing. It's all anyone will talk about today, which makes sense because, I don't know if you know this**, but we don't really get that many earthquakes in Ohio. I think they suspected we might get one when I was in like 3rd grade, because I vaguely remember having earthquake drills where we got to hide under our desk. They were either earthquake drills or bomb drills, I don't know. This was during the war in Iraq (you know, the first one), so it really could have been either.
Last night, when I got home from work, the spirit of Monica Geller inhabited my body and I raced around the apartment, cleaning like a madwoman. I don't know why, but don't worry. This burst of productivity only lasted until Heidi got home and we decided to get Papa Murphy's for dinner. Then we watched A LOT of TV. Like . . . a lot. And drank wine. But not a lot of wine. A normal amount. Wow, Jennie, good story. Um. How about a Conversation With My Roommate? A short one, though, because I'm sleepy.
Me: TiVo, PAUSED. I have to pee.
Heidi: OK. Do you want more wine?
Me: Do you have to ask?
Heidi: True.
Me: That's like asking a woodpecker if he wants to peck some more wood.
Heidi: Nice.
Me: Thanks.
*lame
**but I'm KIND OF a big deal
oh wine, i miss wine.
ReplyDeleteAre you anywhere near Cleveland? Because there's totally a Hellmouth there. Um, just KIDDING. I'm not a nerd.
ReplyDeleteExcept for the death and destruction part, I really like earthquakes.
ReplyDeleteThey mess with the basis assumption earth=solid in such an impressive way.
I like wine too.
If you're going to stagger around both offer good excuses.
I often ask women if they felt the earth move after dates.
ReplyDeletePapa Murphy's is NOT on Heidi's protein diet. What the hell is wrong with you people!?
ReplyDeleteI am sitting here VERY curious if you have a "companionship" opportunity this weekend. You will email me on monday morning. yes yes you will.
Kat, wine is overrated. Wow, I can't believe I said that.
ReplyDeleteAshley, NO, thank goodness, I'm safe.
'mouse, I'd rather stagger because of wine.
Steve, and then?
Tam, I don't even know what a protein diet is.
As for a "conpanionship" opportunity (where do you come up with this stuff?), I'd love to, but unfortunately I haven't heard anything about it, so my email on Monday might be pretty boring.
