The continuing saga of me being a little bit dim

[kellifer]

- Can I write 10k in 3 days? It remains to be seen. I have abandoned the first Big Bang draft because I basically painted myself into a corner and now I am writing a new one! Ha! Take that achey wrist of doom!

- Conversations with the flatmate 2 continued - (they are still making jokes about NASCAR - I DID NOT NEED TO GIVE THEM MORE FODDER!!)

F2: Hey, when did you do poopie last?
Me: Blinks
F2: Hmm?
Me: (Very slowly, maybe i misheard...) What?
F2: When did you do poopie last?
Me: (Thinking what?? Why?? Did I leave behind horrible evidence that I shouldn't because I'm a girl and girls don't do that!?!) Um... today.
F2: Oh right, okay. I'll do it tomorrow then.
Me: (Just stares for a moment before I realise he is talking about THE CAT LITTER AND NOT MY PERSONAL !AHEM MOVEMENTS).

At this juncture, any normal person would say, oh right, cool and leave it at that and NO ONE would be any the wiser but sometimes my mouth works without the benefit of my brain.

Me: OH MY GOD, I THOUGHT YOU WERE ASKING ABOUT ME PERSONALLY!

Cue dead silence and then LAUGHING FOR DAYS.

I'm actually lol'ing at BOTH of you for using the term "poopie" in any given context!

[intermezzo]

OMG LOL

Also? I would have probably said the same thing! ^_^' So, um, don't feel too bad?

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Oh, man.

I would have been as flumoxed. Hello, flatmate - how about say 'when did you last clean the cat litter box?'!!

*giggles*

I think your flatmate might have ME laughing for days. Poopie? Seriously?

I now have visions of asking my 24 year old 6'6" son, "Hey, will you do poopie for me today?" but am not sure I would survive the resulting eyebrow of incredulity.

I have tears running down my cheeks.
