I May Actually Shower

Morning. Note I didn’t say good morning, because I woke up at 6am, and no good morning starts off that way. Not in my world.

I’m gonna shower and hit the road to go see Hilly for the last time in a while. See, she’s leaving Florida and going back to The CA, where they announce everything with a “the” in the front. As in, “I’m taking THE 405,” and “I’m taking THE dump.”

It’s my first real venture outside the house in a while. And the first time Mom isn’t going to require a sitter. Yeah, she’s doing rather well.

In the meantime, since I have been Uber Emo of late, I thought I’d share a joke a friend sent me in email. Watch Twitter and Flickr and stuff, cuz there will be photos.

Several men are in the locker room of a country club.  A cellular phone on a bench rings and a man engages the hands-free speaker function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to listen.

MAN: ‘Hello’

WOMAN: ‘Honey, it’s me.  Are you at the club?’

MAN: ‘Yes’

WOMAN: ‘I am at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat.  It’s only $2,000.  Is it OK if I buy it?’

MAN: ‘Sure, go ahead if you like it that much.’

WOMAN: ‘I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new Models.  I saw one I really liked.’

MAN: ‘How much?’

WOMAN: ‘ $90,000′

MAN: ‘OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.’

WOMAN: ‘Great! Oh, and one more thing…the house I wanted last year is back on the market.  They’re asking $980,000′

MAN: ‘Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $ 900,000.  They will probably take it.  If not, we can go the extra 80 thousand if it’s really a good deal.’

WOMAN: ‘OK. I’ll see you later!  I love you so much!’

MAN: ‘Bye! I love you, too.’

The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are staring at him in astonishment, mouths agape.

He turns and asks:  ‘Anyone know who this phone belongs to?’
