Caption Game

You know. . .I really don't recommend getting hyper at midnight. Doesn't help with the sleep process when you have to get up early the next day. Of course, talking about what made you hyper at such an hour can help keep you awake when work is boring. What was so fun last night? Well, read the first blog and you'll have an idea. Sam and I were having a rip roaring time amusing each other. What is the contest? Our favorite fansite (for Gerard Butler) has something that they call the Caption Game. The object is to take one of the listed pics of GB and add a funny caption. Well, the admin has decided that the site is going to host a contest for this ( if you go to the GB.net link, you'll see). Let me see if I can link you an example below:

(in a Jamaican accent) "First you got to bat yo eyes like dis. You have to pucker up yo lips like dis. . ." (frogs sing. . .shalalala you gotta kiss de girl)

Ok, not my best one but it was the first ever that I created. I may include more later. Sam also has one on her blog that's pretty funny.

Anyway, today was loooong. For those who don't know, I have a part-time job in a bookstore. Pretty cool. Well, the manager, Tony, asked me to work this morning so he wouldn't have to work a double because he gave the assistant manger, Jessica, off for her bday (isn't he sweet?). I had ordered a cake for her before I knew this so, after he got in, I rushed to get some lunch, buy the cake, and get back to meet up with her and some of our co-workers. I got the cake from a Publix grocery store. Let me tell you. . .it was beautiful. If you look them up on the web, they have a whole thing where you can set up what you want on your cake and print it out so you can just give them the info. Very cool. I got her the basket weave cake (white basket). It was kind of like one that Jessica thought was cool in a wedding cake book. Then I rushed to teach class (my main job for USC when I'm not in PhD student mode) and that went well. Heard some interesting speeches (it's a basic public communications course). Didn't think I would last but it's all good. Obviously, if I'm up late again (get used to it, I'm a night owl. . .hence morning work is ugh to me). Now I am writing to you while listening to my friends, Shawnna and Beth speak on the phone (modern technology is great. . .threeway calling. . .get your mind out of the gutter). Of course, now we are talking about one-night stands. . .but I'll save that for another day.
