You look like me

It's funny when you meet the husband of a girl you used to date, and find that he looks a lot like you.

I guess her type must be "devastatingly handsome."

A public service announcement

Sure, all you can eat sushi for $20 may seem like a good idea when you're sitting at the table, hungry, looking over the menu, but after you've polished off 14 rolls, an order of tempura and a miso soup, I guarantee you'll have a very different perspective.

Also, be sure to read the fine print. When you're that stuffed you'll find creative ways that don't include eating the left over rolls to get rid of pieces of sushi the restaurant wants to charge you $2 a pop for not eating.

Do I know you from somewhere?

Last night, while having drinks with a few friends, we spotted these three girls at the bar who were very obviously trolling for guys. They didn't look very experienced at it based on the fact that their body language screamed "don't approach me" while they tried to make eye-contact with every guy in the bar. One girl looked downright angry.

About an hour into the evening, well after we finished making of fun of the girls from our own table, it was my round to buy drinks, so I pushed into an opening at the bar -- not realizing it was next to these girls. About a 1/2 second after approaching the bar, Angry Girl taps me on the shoulder and asks, "do I know you from somewhere?"

Do I know you from somewhere -- do people seriously still use this line?!? It's about as trite and overused as "come here often?" She should have saved herself the embarrassment and just asked me if I'm a Libra, or if I injured myself when I fell from heaven -- Barely were these words out of my mouth when we discover we were in the same football league.

Who has two thumbs and needs to learn to keep his mouth shut? This guy.

Play it again Sam

Sitting here this morning, head in hands, next to large glass of water and a bottle of Advil while trying to get ready for work, I some how keep coming back to this concept.

I think I need to heed my own advice.

Born to play

I hate to admit it, but I'm addicted to NBC's The Singing Bee. The show is cheesy, but I've never felt born to play a game show before.

At last, my addiction to karaoke could actually pay off.

Ladies, please

Something to keep in mind.

G-mail ads

I think the ads in G-mail are trying to mess with me. I don't know how this is related to the content of my last few conversations, but its giving me links on weight loss tips, for Propecia and the most recent asked if I'm a "slacker mom."

Great - apparently my e-mail thinks I'm a fat, bald woman.
