tales from the rib
Just some random conversations that made me laugh:
I am on the phone with my dad, talking about the latest suspense novel in a series that we both read.
"Dad, did you read it yet?"
"Yes, it was great!"
"Can you believe, after all this time, that the serial killer was his best friend, the FBI agent?"
"Oh… I guess I haven't read that one yet."

Jo calls me after work to talk about where to meet for a happy hour.
Jo: "What a day! I left my cell phone at home by accident. And I just realized I'm out of gas so I had to stop."
Me, utterly confused: "How can you be calling me if you left your cell phone at home?"
Jo: "Payphones, Lisa. They still have them."
It never occurred to me.

Jody, at the bar:
"My life is so overwhelmed with work and family that even going out with you is a highlight."

My dad, talking about our travel plans:
"When I called the resort in Banff, the front desk told me I should make restaurant reservations now, because they're booked for weeks in advance. I only made the reservation for two, though, because I didn't think you'd be hungry."

I could use a laugh today. Feel free to post a funny of your own.
