"Yummo"

okay, the title is a quiz. if you know which movie i'm thinking of that it comes from, you get mega e-props. if you do not know... you got a problem that must soon be remedied. anyway. and by the by, none of my family members can participate in this quiz. i don't think i needed to say that, but just in case.

the actual reason for that title is that i'm currently eating a dr pepper float. and i just ate a brownie right before that. i know it's bad, but let me be quite frank with you here: i really couldn't care less. so cheers for DP and IC!!!

i potentially could have had my first car wreck today. if i had, which i didn't, it would not have been my fault. anyhow, with that important note out of the way... i was turning left onto vista drive from north street. i was waiting patiently, and eventually i got a green arrow. an oncoming car slowed and came to a stop in their right hand lane. so i turned in. juuuuust as i turned in, another car came peeling out of one of those little roads (i just spelled that "rodes" before i even had a chance to think) parallel to vista, whipped around the parked car, and went straight through the intersection. i think they just realized as they were grazing my back bumper that that had been a parked car they had just sped past. yeah buddy. watch yo se'f. it kinda freaked me out, and had my heart going for a while though.

got off work early and got in a few good hours of piano practice. it was great.

watched friday night lights this evening. it was a good movie. i almost cried a couple times. not that that is top criteria for a good movie...

must work in the morning. what time is it now??

hopefully dan will come over tomorrow. more ping pong! yessssss. see y'all "sweet darlin's" later! (obviously i've been chuckling about that pallate again.) and don't forget about which movie "yummo" comes from! if you know of more than one movie that word is in, please share.

HAHA Karen, you're far to grown up and mature to know whence it came ::struggles to say no more::

Sorry, I hate to think not knowning the movie reference makes me too grown up and mature, but...I don't know it. ( -.- )

And I can't decide if you're just hopped up on caffeine, quirky, or still running on adrenaline from the near miss! Glad it WAS a near miss, tho. What was in that brownie, anyway? ( ^_^ )

i don't know, but whatever it was, it was good. pretty sure chocolate might have been one of the main ingredients. i should know this stuff...

i have decided to go ahead and tell you the answer to the quiz. i'm afraid everyone will laugh (if you even read this comment, that is), but without shame, i tell you that the movie is THE ICE AGE. i know, i know. it's very childish, but so far i have not come anywhere near tiring of sid the sloth, scrat the rat, and all the other HILARIOUS characters. so, chuckle if you like, but that's where yummo comes from. "*gasp* a DANDELION!!! yummo!!!"

by the way, ice age two is coming out. coming soon, to a theater near you! aaaaahahahahahahaha!!

Yay! I'm not an adult after all! (or as it was termed in that infamous Star Trek episode: a "Grup")

..okay, well, I suppose if I can relate everyday occurences to original Star Trek episodes, then I must at least be advanced in years, if not mature enough to be called adult. *sigh*

But anyway...my point! I HAVE seen Ice Age! And it was a hoot! But, no, I did not remember the line. Oh well. Still enjoyed the movie. Thanks for the memory!
