Chilled Chocolate Soup ... with Spinkles!

Reasons I love advertising copy.

JFY: the soup spot place was advertising chilled chocolate soup with sprinkles

i was excited

walked down with colleague

got three orders

1. they were out of sprinkles

2. it was just pudding!

Learned Lesson? The written word conveys best when offering sprinkles. Preferably, rainbow.

… so I like that about myself and I have other great qualities as well …

Excited.

Coming this fall - Nat Geo Migrations - another reason to anticipate the crisp season.

Lost in translation.

My pals are varied. From single ladies wearing Joe Ragans, to married couples with little ones, to gays designing up the voice of our generation, to custom tee shirt makers who sell the Free Steven Slater apparel, to hipster kids who take vitamins to alter their taste buds, to curators at Smithsonian museums, to Nat Geo workers who chat with Lisa Ling about weather in her parts of the world, to pilates instructors who make delish dirty ketel one marti's (one olive please).

I have major love and appreciation for each. But sometimes - just sometimes - I need a few minutes to process.

Kent: whats the dilly yo

AAW: well i was supposed to go farming with a friend

but now i don't know if we are going

so

...

we probably won't have to move our hang out date

i'm just not sure when we would get back if we do

Kent: farming?

AAW: ha

yes

farming

well, work on a farm

we had it set up a couple of weeks ago

and now she's moving, so she's not sure if she has time to

Kent: i dont understand

like free labor

or ...

like share cropping?

AAW: yes, like free labor

no not share cropping

Kent: do you get crops in payment?

AAW: no i don't think so

i think it's just volunteering

Kent: i see.

Lesson learned: This is why I write my calendar plans in pencil. A pal could cancel to go farming. Straight up FARMING.

Seconds, please.

JFY: there is this crazy woman who works at our front desk. today she is telling everyone that her daughter was nearly kidnapped this weekend from her camper.

she didn't call 911 because they were out of state and she didn' tknow 911 worked outside of the state.

.

Kent: this is amaze.

JFY: she said that the "kidnapper" started pulling her daughters legs from outside of the camper and she had to pull from inside.

so then she left her daughter with her husband and went on a search for the kidnapper.

she saw a woman who wouldn't make eye contact with her.

found a police officer (somehow, without calling 911) and reported that woman.

Kent: this has to be made up!

JFY: swear, its not.

she has cornered 3 of my colleagues

same story.

each time.

Speechless.

22 days until Lady Gaga concert. Hopefully, I'm not cycling during that time. I should probably start keeping track.

JFY: you know, guys can get pms too

just without the mess

a time of the month when they are irritable, hungry and break out

maybs we are on the same cycle!

Some men may follow me, but you choose death and company.

Josh Rouse.

My appreciation and love for Josh Rouse's music is muy dificil to describe with my own words. Luckily, Ms. Celine Dion comes to my aid.

'you were my strength when I was weak
you were my voice when I couldn't speak
you were my eyes when I couldn't see
...
i'm everything I am'

Because you sing glorious tunes and strum a marvelous guitar that soothes and give me peace of mind.
