Thursday, October 10, 2002 Is it worth it? Let me work it....Now, I know that my new song on repeat is a little off the norm of my selections but I just cannot stop listening to this song. Missy Elliott is definitely the shit. It just makes me laugh. Maybe it's the elephant sound, or the backwards lyrics. I dunno. The album hasn't come out yet, so they don't have a sample up there at the link yet. Don't worry, you'll hear it on the radio soon enough. And yes, it's a little raunchier than normal, but I've never shied away from that. Did I ever tell you about the time that we were at Scorekeepers (your typical college bar with dance floor) and my sister Amy and I were jamming to Eazy-E's timeless classic "Gimme That Nut" and the DJ actually said over the mike to the whole bar, "Why is it that the only people on the dance floor who know all the words to this song are girls?" Classic. We were pretty damn proud of ourselves.
So I caught this show on TV last night that was the Most Outrageous Game Show Moments. It was easily the funniest thing I've ever seen. And yes, half of them were from Family Feud. Here's my favorite. The question was: "Name a question like 'How old are you?' that people might lie about the answer." The first woman's answer? 18. The second woman's answer? 50. The third guy's answer? 39. I guess you don't get on Family Feud by being a rocket scientist.
I'm at home right now. I have a study today at 2pm and then at 9:30pm, so I figure I'll go in at about 12-1ish and then just stay all afternoon, evening, night. I have permanently turned off the ringer for the phone in my room. Considering that I'm sleeping at such odd hours these days, and the only people that call during the day are trying to sell shit anyways. Gotta love caller ID.
Well, I should make a vague attempt to go get dressed now. Smoochie boochie.
