Things you dont expect..........

so i'm conversing with some ladies from my karate class and they said something that blew me away. the two sisters live with their mother (i assume she had them when she was 12 because shes not much older than me) and apparently have a guy living at their home. in the middle of the conversation this line was used...."tim, you know, the guy who lives in our garage". they kept going with the conversation but i stopped. "you have a guy living in your garage" i said, "what the hell is that". seems he used to live in the house but was such a pain in the ass he was relegated to the garage. its a two car garage but he only gets half. tarps are hung up to seperate the living space from storage. they still charge him the same rent though. sounds like a quality guy to me. the point is though that i never thought this petite little thing would say a line like that and then act like its no big deal. like everyone has a guy living in their garage. dont you? i think that from now on i'll try to put this phrase into all my conversations...." so that was right after i blew that chimp". that should turn a few heads. the secret is to keep going like its no big deal. go on you folks try it. put a completely ridiculous phrase right in the middle of your conversation. it keeps people on their toes. they never see it coming.....and why should they? keep in mind though that the phrase "tim, you know, the guy who lives in our garage" is already taken.

hump day. how inappropriately named.

Tim better watch himself, next stop is truly the "Dog House" or the 2nd family car parked on the street. I heard he will be able to move into the basement with good behavior.

The last conversation stopper I muttered was "How about some Chicken McMaggots?".
