“Hey, have you ever tried meatballs with Cheetos?”

This is what the sandwich artist at Subway asked me tonight as if it’s something he really thought I’d like. He then explained how they make the meal nice and crunchy. I thought this was a funny thing to ask a seemingly random customer, but then after I thought about it, I realized that I probably would like that.

Me: What did I tell you about living in the cloud?
Sandy: Did you just tell her, “What did I tell you about living in the cloud?”
Me:  Yes.
Sandy: Is this another one of your racist things?

All quotes paraphrased.

Via IM:
Ted: are you coming home for thanksgiving?
Me: yes
Ted: call me when you get home.
Me: ok

After work, I call Ted:
Ted: What’s up?
Me: Nothing. You told me to call you.
Ted: What?
Me: You said that I should call you when I get home.
Ted: [laughing] I meant when you get home. I thought you don’t refer to [California] as home.
Me: I don’t. I thought you meant my apartment. I was too busy to correct you.

Text from my sister:

Haha so Mom’s kids had to write a story about their happiest moment. One kid wrote: “when my sheets smell good.” And then about what they’re good at, he wrote “sleep.” You two would get along.

Turns out the city was built “on rock and roll,” and not “on Broadway.”

Yeah, I know this one is a stretch, but that’s really what I thought I remembered hearing.

Before my trip to Ireland (yes, I went to Ireland… blog post coming soonish), I mentioned my trip in a meeting. Of course it only took a few seconds for someone to mention how green the country is. That prompted this paraphrased portion of a conversation:

Coworker: I was in Pennsylvania recently. It’s also very green.
I think to myself: “Thanks for noticing!”

Coworker:  (continued) And there are trees everywhere.
I think to myself: “Yes, it’s awesome!”

Coworker: It’s almost claustrophobic.

I still don’t know how to react to that, so I’ll just end this post with some photos from my most recent trip to the claustrophobic commonwealth.

Me: When are you leaving?
Sophia: Probably not until 7.
Me: Okay, good.
Sophia: Why?
Me: I need a girl for something later.

Nelson sent me the following email this morning without any prompting from me:

Subject: sorry for my auto-tweet
From: Nelson Bradley

I wanted to test out the “new” “feature” to tweet blog posts, so I set it up months ago in feedburner. It works! I will disable it before my next post.

I suppose now is a good time to point out that if I’ve stopped following you on Buzz/Reader/Twitter/Foursquare, it’s probably not because I don’t like you. It’s because you create duplicate content and I only need to read something once.
