Overheard

[devilgrrl]

Laura stopped over after dinner with her mom and grandmother and was pressed into duty taking apart a computer desk and assembling a bookshelf. She and I were sitting around while Steven was complaining about all the wedding shit we've amassed and how I need to go through it. He was holding it and asking where I wanted it.

I did the logical thing. I told him to put it somewhere I'd trip over it. That would make me more likely to do something with it.

Laura died and then, after seeing her, I also died. Steven just kind of stared at us. But, low and behold, he did leave the wedding crap somewhere where I will trip over it, which means that sometime by Wednesday, after tripping over it three or four times, I will go through it.

We all win.

God I feel smart. When I read "Laura died.." I was like, "Oh my god that's terrible" at first and got all sad. Because you would totally bring up a friend's death in a really casual entry like this.

I said something similar about Laura's puppy to my mom the other day and she got all upset.

This just goes to show you just how contagious the dumb are. Laura and I both have it.
