Things that make you go, "Hmmmm?"




A re
cent conversation I heard at the grocery store: (in the juice aisle)

Boy: Let's get this one
Girl: Uh, noo. Why would we get it at 2 for $5.00 when we could get one for $2.69?



My fortune cookie:










Not sure if everyone would agree with this one. Perhaps? Hmmm.



Move over Alfred Hitchcock:

When I drive home from work, there is one intersection that always looks like this.









Why this one intersection? Why so many? This shouldn't be creepy, but darn Hitchcock if he didn't make it downright unnerving.











Texas bumper stickers:


I've made it a habit to store in my memory bumper stickers I see driving around Dallas. They seem to be of a different strain than in California. Here's the latest (seen on a big truck):

"Let's get squirrely."



Getting more than I payed for:


We recently purchased some cat food online. When we opened the box there was something extra.









WEE-WEE pads? Why would they send us WEE-WEE pads? Did someone think, "Huh, let's just throw in some WEE-WEE pads for good measure?" And furthermore, just what am I supposed to do with said WEE-WEE pads? My conscience dictated that I call the place. I left a message saying I got something I didn't pay for, but they never called me back. Do I actually have to spend the money to send back WEE-WEE pads when it was their mistake? WEE-WEE pads? Does anyone need some WEE-WEE pads?

And finally,


Exploring new pla
ces:

Found a new road,










Now that is just cool. Something to aspire to, to live on Chevy Chase Ave. Imagine the exterior illumination on that street!

No WEE WEE pads needed here, thanks. Watch out for those birds. If there is anything you should be suspicious of it's them.

I like your picture journal. I love Alfred Hitchcock movies, and I am a little scared that birds may attack me one day. I wouldn't like that intersection.

Now that was funny, all of it. At a gas station in TX someone wrote with a sharpie "Blame damocrats for high gas prices." True story. (I even took a picture and blogged about it.) When you have become a true Texan you will learn to carry a sharpie with you and educate fellow citizens wherever you please. (I never became a true Texan, I guess.)

Love all the wonderful details of your life...the birds are creepy. Don't open your windows at that intersection. And I wish I could be shocked but I actually knew a woman who bought 2 ducks that she kept inside and used "Wee Wee" diapers on. Now that is CREEPY!

Megan you make me laugh. I think the juice for 2.69 has to be my favorite. Although Christmas on Chevy Chase AVE would be unbeatable.

I feel like watching Christmas Vacation, and then THe Birds for good measure. YOu are so dang funny Meg-- don't stop the bloggin'.
