Mispronounced for two decades and counting.
Appetizer
What was your favorite cartoon when you were a child? I really liked Chip and Dale’s Rescue Rangers, Tale Spin, Duck Tales…all those Disney afternoon ones. They came on our local Fox station, but I’m pretty sure it was marketed as a Disney afternoon thing. And at some point during the afternoon Double Dare would come on. Slimy. I loved it. On Sunday mornings we would get up at the crack of dawn to watch The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. “Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear”…I’d watch that if it were on today. There is something very soothing about Pooh, kinda like Mister Rogers.
Soup
Pretend you are about to get a new pet. Which animal would you pick, and what would you name it? How about I tell you about the pet I just got 2 months ago, because she is exactly what I would pick. She is a Scoodle. Three-quarters Scottish Terrier and one-quarter Poodle. This makes for a very quick, cunning animal. She can read minds. Her name is Clarabel Dolores, because once again I felt the need to save a future daughter some ridicule. It’ll be bad enough when I spit on my thumb and wipe grape jelly from her face.
Salad
On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how much do you enjoy getting all dressed up for a special occasion? Assuming that I start getting ready in time, and I’m not hopping out of the shower 20 minutes before I’m supposed to leave (like usual), then TEN because I love putting on makeup. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Like wearing pretty dresses, but not the awful underthings. Gah. I need to take a picture of the thing I wore under my dress for Heather’s rehearsal dinner. Medieval torture doesn’t hold a candle to this.
Main Course
What kind of music do you listen to while you drive? Things that I can turn up really loud and get kinda lost in. When I’m driving home, I have some specific music I like to listen to, because going home is something very, very special to me. The rest of the time I usually listen to some mix CD that I’ve made. This morning I made a new one with a variety of sounds: David Cook, Leona Lewis, Celine Dion, Allison Crowe, Little Texas, and Janet Jackson. Told ya. I’m eclectic.
Dessert
When was the last time you bought a clock? And in which room did you put it? I just recently bought an alarm clock. And then I bought another because I couldn’t trust the first one. You need to be able to trust your alarm clocks. It’s in my room, on my nightstand.
Crabtown in OKC is hosting a watch party for the premiere of season 4 of the Discovery Channel’s Deadliest Catch. King crab dinner for $19.99 on April 15. Yum yum.
“I’ll tell you about my ideal dinner party — John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, Osama bin Laden, John Wayne Gacy, and Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer. ‘Oh, hey guys. Welcome to my home. Oh, here comes the waiter with the soup. Hope you guys are hungry.’ Meanwhile, the waiter subtly nods at me, but I don’t acknowledge him. But I know that he’s an assassin because I trained him. BOOM. Two minutes later — five dead psychopaths at my dining room table. All that’s left to do is dispose of the bodies and collect the reward. It’s almost too easy.” - Dwight Schrute
Mark my words on this one, folks.
In last week’s episode, Harper made a comment to Juliet along the lines of “Of course Ben likes you, you look just like her.”
Her. It’s been haunting people for a week now. Is it Annie, Ben’s long-lost love, or Emily Linus, his long-dead mother? I’m going to play the devil’s advocate here and say that it’s neither.
Here’s my theory. In an episode last season, while Jack was still locked in the Hydra Station, Ben himself made a remark about how Juliet resembled Jack’s ex-wife, Sarah. I don’t know what to think about this. Of course it’s most likely one of the first two and out of those it’s nearly got to be his mother. But I like this particular route, thinking that Ben could somehow have something to do with Sarah.
Thoughts?
I hope she gets the help she needs. I like her.
I woke up vomiting in the middle of the night and I’m pretty sure it’s a virus that has been going around my hometown. Now, I haven’t been back there, but I’ve been around my mom and who knows, the same bug is probably crawling all over Walmart. Anyway. Bleh. BUT…there’s this. Someone posted it on a Livejournal community last night. It’ll give you a good laugh.
For the record, this would have worked on me (but I’m taken so nevermind). Let’s look at it. A serenade. ABBA. Umm…YES.
I thought I would let you all know what my Thursday Thirteen is going to be next week so that I can, you know, create a buzz. You won’t want to miss this one.
Thirteen Songs I Would Sing If I Were Ever On American Idol
But that’s about as likely as “I’m-A-Dinner-Jacket” and our fearless leader having brunch tomorrow, followed by a round of mini-golf. Still, be here next Wednesday around 5 p.m.!

13. Christmas Party - Lots of sweetness between Jim and Pam. I
love it.
12. E-mail Surveillance - We get to see where Jim lives! Sidenote:
I absolutely cannot stand Michael’s improv scenes. They make me
feel so sad for him.
11. Ben Franklin - Dwight: I don’t care what Jim says, that is not
the real Ben Franklin. I am 99% sure.
10. Halloween - Dwight as a Sith Lord. So great.
9. Boys and Girls - Dwight: Remember on LOST when they meet
“the Others”?
8. Business School - A bat. In the office. Jim. As a vampire. And I
must admit that every time I see that poor kid’s text book getting
ripped up by Michael, I cringe. Because, my friends, that is real pain.
7. The Return - Andy [To Michael] - “I forgot to tell you the plan
for this Saturday. You, me, bar, beers, buzzed. Wings, shots, drunk!
Waitresses - hot! Football, Cornell-Hofstra, slaughter! Then quick
nap at my place, then we hit the tizzown.” And then there’s “Rockin’
Robin.”
6. The Carpet - There is poop on the floor. That is comedy, folks.
5. Drug Testing - Once again, Dwight in costume (well, uniform).
4. Casino Night - The night so many of us had been waiting for.
Sigh. Together at last…not.
3. Women’s Appreciation - See this.
2. Initiation - Dwight’s cousin Mose jumping out of nowhere to fight
Ryan is one of my favorite scenes, period. “What… is the DHARMA
Initiative?!”
1. The Injury - It’s been my favorite for a long time. Nothing has
been able to bump it out of its spot yet. Michael GRILLS his foot
on a George Forman Grill. “I like waking up to the smell of bacon.
Sue me.”
