Ridiculousness

This is going to be the shortest, dumbest post ever. I was in Hobby Lobby yesterday and overheard quite an intelligent conversation...





In the front of the store, right when you walk in there is a display. Part of said display includes this cutie tootie little "some assembly required" greenhouse~it's about 4ft high X 3.5ft wide X 2.5ft deep. There is a young, college-ish looking couple who seem pretty interested in the thing...measuring, guestimating, talking about whether or not it would fit on the balcony of their apartment, and my favorite.......trying to figure out whether they could fit all of their DOOBIE plants inside. Not kidding. They started chatting about the opacity of the thing and whether or not the nosey lady next apt. over would notice........and I'm standing RIGHT THERE. Soooo I faked a loud phone call to my Hubby, the (not even close) undercover narcotics dude to ask, "Hi Honey...how are things down in narcotics today?...Wow, another bust...you guys are on fire lately! Hey,... doesn't that make you one bust away from that ginormous bonus?" Ok, so I didn't call...but it would have been d*mn funny.







Hu....where the did that come from?
David Cook...leave me the h*ll alone already.

That would have been hilarious! We don't understand what most people are saying and couldn't talk to them anyway, so I can never throw any of that stuff out there.

I would totally love to though.

Jail and arrest has become " not feared" by so many people. But your call would have been #1 IN MY BOOK. Yoohoo! you go girl!

Brandy said...

OMG that is just tooo funny! My name is Brandy and I came by from Jennifer's page. I can imagine how their faces would have looked if you had done that!

Judy said...

You are so "wicked", girl. I would loved to have seen the expressions on their faces as they overheard you on your "phone call"!

TJ said...

Oh My Goodness! That is hi-larious!

Ha! this reminded me of when my friend played a joke in college, the details of which I can't reveal, on the grounds that it would be stupid for me to record the deed in question permanently on the Internet...

Carolyn said...

ok as soon as I pick myself up from the floor I will finish writing this post. And, next time you make a funny post, could you put a blinking warning sign prior to typing the post, so I am warning that I need to seatbelt myself into my computer chair... hee hee

girlie you are such a hoot! I can only imagine hang out with you in person. Good Times there.

Oh what a shame you are being hounded by DC....Not! He's a hottie, and so mature for that young 25 that he is. wink!

Lisa said...

I agree with Carolyn..WARNING FUNNY POST, so I can go pee before reading and wouldn't laugh so hard I pee my pants! I can picture this couple and had you really pulled the fake phone call...I would love to see how fast they got the hell out of there.

David Cook stalking you huh? Better call the fake cop!

j said...

Oh I WISH you had. You have a funny mind my dear. A kindred spirit!

Be blessed.

What you said on my blog about my photography!?!? THANKS. Means a lot!! AND... Even though you didn't actually MAKE that call... it was just as funny as if you had!! lol

I am up late because I heard all these car doors slamming outside. I peeked out the window and there was a cop car parked outside our house and another one in my neighbors driveway and yet another in front of the next house...not sure what's going on, but maybe the narcs caught up with your young Hobby Lobby shoppers. Gotta run now...more peering out the window needs to be done.

Some folks are more afraid of David Cook than they are of narcs! Or... so I've heard! ^te he^ ~ jb///

Dianna, you are too funny! I would have loved to see the expressions on their face.

And I have to agree with you..it isn't a vacation until your child has barfed on you. We went to Branson MO for the weekend and Addie barfed on herself and me in the bathroom of where we were eating. Luckily we were in the bathroom and she had not digested the food yet.

Amy said...

Too funny! As a wife of a drug detective, I can totally appreciate this!

The phone call would have been HILARIOUS!!!!

I sadly can't wait for David Cook's album to come out in the fall. I am such a dork.

Hilarious...please tell me they said, "Look how cute this little house is and you can put your weed in here!"

Jana said...

Dude, where's my brain????

I too love DC. Feeling like a dirty ole' woman, but loving every hot second of it. ;-)
