I have an invite to go out to see neighbor's boyfriend's band tomorrow. But at 10 at night. I'm still incredibly resistant to going out late at night. House parties that start earlier are one thing. But I like being home-like late at night. We'll see. Also need to fit in shopping errands and a mani and pedi, clean the house and swim. Swim on weekends is pretty much a 2 hour commitment. I like it that way.

I'm completely incapable of uttering the words, "It's possible." without appending "pig." Can't do it. It slips out every time.

Also say, "That'll do, pig." But mostly to myself.

"That's how you get ants."

Makes me think of, "With that, you get, um, bees." Young Frankenstein refs are awesome. Especially when a random stranger picks up on it in passing. "This--this is a good boy! And we love him!"

"They mostly come out at night. Mostly." But you have to use the Canadian "moostly".

"Just this once (Rose), everybody lives!"

Also, "I'm not going to stand here and argue with a man who's lining up to be a hot lunch!"

"This was no boating accident."

"Eh, they're all gonna die."

Oddly, "Back home we got a taxidermy man, he's gonna have a heart attack when he sees what I brung him." is more useful than you might think. As is, "A little shakin', a little tenderizin', and down you go."

Ghostbusters I & II as a unit are everyday quoteable. "You don't usually see that in a large appliance." "We're gonna need a sample of your brain." "Igon, your mucus." "'Get her!' That was your plan?" "Where do these stairs go? They go up!" "Who does your taxes?" "Where're you from, Johnny?" "The uppher vhest side?" "Back off, man. I'm a scientist." "You're short, your belly button sticks out too far, and you're a terrible burden on your poor mother," often cooed to the cat who thinks we're extolling his virtues.

"Well, I'm not saying I'd like to build a summer home here, but the trees are actually quite lovely."

Used this just last week.

Someone tell me to get out and go to the grocery store. We're out of everything but it's snowing.

Do it now. Later will be worse.

Go to the store, Cash. It's not going to get less snowy!

Cashmere, you are OUT OF EVERYTHING!

Just figure they'll be out of milk, bread and tp. If they have that brand of crazy there.

These are the times when the choice of a small dog might be questioned. Go, Cash, and safely!

"Didja tell 'em about the twinkie?"

mr. flea just sang, "chim chiminee chim chiminee chim chim cheree, I'm a black belt in the third degree!" We had Casper's Tae Kwan Do belt testing tonight, and I am pretty sure mr. flea is about to start taking lessons. He was transfixed.

My personal favorite is, "First, there is the ooohing and the ahhhing, and then there is the running and the screaming."

It's amazing how often I use that one.
