Interesting day today.
Woke up at 7 and alternated between going online, reading Cryptonomicon, and just laying in bed. Did that until about 11:30, when I finished the book.
Wrote a post. Went to watch TV. Nothing good on at all. I ended up watching Celebrity Poker, but it was not entertaining me in the slightest. Back online, but no one was on today. Lay in bed some more. Back down to the TV, where I watched X-Files. Haven’t seen that in forever. It was good.
Mommy Van came over and dropped off some Loose family stuff Mommy Tang had for me, and I burned Adobe Première Pro 1.5 for her. As soon as she left, I went back online, where I got today’s first quote from Mommy Tang.
“There’s a stuffed male doll with glasses. I got it a while ago and thought of you.”
- Mommy Tang.
“JACK THE NERD
Jack is a nerd who just doesn’t know it.
Is that so wrong?
He is afraid of everything! Mice, the dark, and girls.”
- Tag on doll.
Thanks, mom. Thanks a lot. Oh, and she said she drooled on it, too. Yay!
Did some service stuff, then caught up on a couple of mangas and watched Bleach 43. After that, it was time for the project. Standard KVIE pledge drive deal. It was straightforward.
If you’ve done it before, you know that on the opening screen, you type in your name. Well, Peggy sat next to me and typed in “POO” on my screen and insisted I introduced myself that way all night. Since I can never say no to her, I did just that. THe script reads, “Hello, and thank you for calling KVIE. My name is Poo. May I get your name?” I would try to get the middle sentence out as fast as possible. Most people didn’t seem to notice or care. But one lady did. She is today’s second quote.
“… My name is Poo. May I get your name?”
- Me.
“Excuse me, what did you say your name was?”
- Lady.
“Uh… Poo.”
- Me.
“How do you spell that?”
- Lady.
“Uh… P… u.”
- Me.
“Oh. Well, my name is Parmys.”
- Lady.
“Could you spell that please?”
- Me.
“Sure. It’s P as in poo, a, r, m, y, s.”
- Lady.
I do believe she was mocking me.
The project cut off at 11. They shoved some burritos on us and we went home. Chatted online until now… I guess I should pass out soon.
okay poo, go pass out hahahaha
