Another one for the list!

Oh the ways I love EavesdropDC. They post the overheard conversations (usually of tourists) in and around DC. On occasion I'm caught off-guard by the ludicrousness of the lack of education of some of our citizens (ie. 'where's the food court on the mall? You mean its just a patch of grass and not a real mall!?') but today was not one of those days. Today was a posting of a phrase I am going to attempt to incorporate into my life somehow:

" Bolt Bus driver pulling into rest stop between NYC and DC 2/1/09:
'Okay, people. You get 15 minutes. I am a divorced man. I tell you that so you know I'll leave you, too.' "

Read the rest of this post...
I'm adding that to my list of phrases. Another current favorite being one filed carefully into my mental Rolodex for future use with my kids when they scream the 'he/she started it!' game is "NO, I started it (insert age number here) years ago in a moment of passion and I'll end it the same way if you don't stop it now!"

Yes, this post was lacking in my usual wit, but I'll name the culprit to that one to this story I'm (haphazardly) writing. I'm stuck mid-way through and hit the 'wall'. That and a snoring puppy (who knew puppies could snore THAT loud? seriously, I thought a tornado was touching down!). Alas, back to writing I go!
