We can’t keep our goodies in the jar!
January 27th, 2005You know, sometimes it is good to spend the day having the most ridiculous conversation by email. This is what Porter and I talked about ALL day yesterday:
Porter: My goodies don’t like staying the jar.
Me: Haha… I know your plight young grasshopper. Goodies are not meant for a jar. If they should stay in the jar, there should be no way to open the jar.
Porter: Or at least one of those tamper proof tops that you can never get open, even though they say they are just to keep kids away. I hate those tops, but my goodies need one.
Me: If your goodies weren’t good enough to come out, we wouldn’t call them “goodies”… they would be “baddies” and really - who wants baddies?.
Porter: I know some people with baddies and yeah, no one wants them.<
Me: Well other people with baddies probably want baddies, because lord knows they aren’t getting any goodies. Is this conversation any less ridiculous than getting pot roast in the eye? =)
(Porter’s fiance emailed us to tell us that he had pot roast for lunch. A potato squirted juice into his eye and his eye was itchy… but that is a more ridiculous conversation for another day.)
Porter: It is a little less ridiculous. A little.
Me: Right. But if our goodies got in someone’s eye and then the said eye was itchy… now that would be totally ridiculous. Or just plain gross… I mean goodies in the eye? And it caused an itchy response? I think that if your goodiesin someone’s eye causes an itchy response we should worry more about getting your goodies and the eye to the doctor and not so much about how ridiculous it is.Itchygoodies = BADDIES
Porter: yeah. very bad.
