So last night I went for this long ass bike ride, came home, showered relaxed etc...
I was about to go to sleep when i realized I was really really hungry, so being lazy I opted for cereal.
My apartment was hot except for my rom which was ice cold so I opted to eat in bed while reading a book.
so here I am sitting indian style, bowl of cereal and book...great right.
Well a fly buzzed by my right ear and instinctually I went to swat at it cuz i was scared shitless...unfortunetly I used the same hand that was holding my big bowl of krunchy kashi and soy milk...now that shit went flying all over my sheets, comforter, pj's, book and my face...
I couldn't even react I was so dumfounded, needless to say I didn't sleep to good last night.
Fun times fun times :o

d'oh. That sounds like something that I would do. Get that bedding in the wash ASAP - you don't want the whole room to smell like sour milk! Yuck! :p

That was the bad part, i had a wet towel and i was trying my best to wash off any milk stuff from the matress...
I think I'll just spray WD-40 on it if it does smell...I like the smell if that stuff :D

febreeze might help... that stuff works wonders. Unfortunately, if you use too much it feels kind of sticky.

I find myself wishing there was a hidden camera in there! That would have made great footage!!

At the restaurant, someone dropped a to-go container of shrimp scampi on the floor behind the counter. Mid-way through it being cleaned up (tile floor still quite oily), a kid come out from the back carrying two big uncovered crocks of pizza sauce. SWIPE... BOOM... His feet were literally above his head at one point. There was sauce EVERYWHERE... :D
There is a video camera that tapes everything that goes on behind the counter, but it just happened to NOT be working that day. :rolleyes:

I used to manage a coffee shop back at the turn of the millenium and we had an awesome moment with a new employee, who hadn't been totally listening when given the "how to do stuff" talk. I came out of the stock room just in time to see her straining with all her might to open one of those industrial pressurised whipped cream canisters. It needed to be refilled with cream, but you have to release any left over gas first or they are really difficult to open because of the pressure. She must have had the strength of hercules, because just as I came out of the door there was this almighty PFOOOOFFFF!!! and within a fraction of a millisecond her and the entire shop within a 5 meter radius of her was covered in the left over whipped cream that was still in there (with the exception of an area of wall that was behind her, that had a Hiroshima style whipped cream sillhouette cast from her body onto it. Poor lass looked so freaked out and like she'd been in a very violent custard pie fight. Made the customers day though. They were all in hysterics. She was lucky that she didn't lose a tooth or worse when the lid blew off, but damn it was funny!

We used to get a warm glass of milk before bedtime. My cousin was over once and we made her laugh while drinking her bedtime milk and it went out her nose and mouth. My mother was not laughing.

Ugh, I hate bugs. At least you have flies though, we have friggin' bats. As a matter of fact, there's one we heard just recently that sounded suspiciously loud and indoors, and I have my tennis racquet by my side pretty much anywhere I go.
So far this year we've had about 8 of them. :rolleyes:

Once while in pre-press hell, the owner of the company and I were out back on the loading dock and he jumped off down to the pavement. Well this was in the winter and the parking lot was notorious for flooding and than freezing creating alot of ice. When his feet hit the patch of ice on top of the pavement he flew so far in the air I contemplated calling the nearby air traffic control tower to get clearance for the guy. He wasn't seriously hurt but everybody within view of the incident was hysterically laughing, including me.

No point mentioning the bats BK. The poor bastard will see them soon enough.

I did that once, unfortunately I came down sideways on top of a frozen rut in a road and busted my femur so bad that it required a 10 inch steel rod and various screws and connections to put it back together again. Other than that I bet it did look pretty damn funny. I can distinctly remember being almost parallel to the ground when gravity took over. :)

I have a horrible problem with cracking up laughing when people fall down. I feel so bad about it, but it's really uncontrollable!!

White Rabbit! WHITE RABBIT!
You know as far as breaking the crap out of your leg it wasn't that bad. If I would have broken it less severely or lower down I would have had a big cast and traction and who knows what unpleasantness. Once it was beefed up with all that steel I didn't need a cast at all. It hurt like hell for a long time but lovely legal narcotics took care of that. :D

Ugh...as of this AM, make it 9. At least kitty spotted it, I just had to finish the job, which by that I mean trap it with a little sterilite container thing, jimmy a manila envelope between the wall and the container I trapped it with so it cups it inside, and release it outside. At least it wasn't in my bedroom like several years back...I still remember that thing landing on my face.
