Phone conversation with Dad.

Dad: So, you're telling me you decided to stay in the US for another year?
Me: Yes.
Dad: I'm worried about you.
Me: Is that a nicer way to say: You're crazy?!
Dad: What if you're wasting your time.
Me: I have a plan.
He put me on hold (I haven't seen my dad for 3 and a half years.)
Dad: I'm afraid to ask what is this plan.
Me: It's a secret plan.
Dad: What's the secret plan.
Me: I don't know yet. It's so secret that I don't even know.
Dad: So you don't have a plan.
Me: Yes I do. My plan is a secret that keeps a secret from me so I won't find out about the secret 'till the secret is revealed.
Dad: Talk to your mom now...

Artifaktori talk

Me: Why are you chopping this dress?
Amy: Because I have to make it very slutty or nobody cares.
Me: So what should I call it? 50's chopped off slutty dress size Xtra Small?
Amy: Just say Sexmall.
Me: And what about this jacket from the 70's?
Amy: It kinda looks like a condom reservoir.
Me: What is that?
Amy then just drew a picture for me.

Hump Day

Angel 17: Hey God. How's it going today?
God: Not too bad. It's hump day you know.
Angel 17: Yeah, so I've been noticing Phil recently. He seems to be considering his life again. I really think we should consider helping him out while he's in a good spot.
God: What do you think? Program 37?
Angel 17: Have a hawk kill a dove in front of him while walking to work?
God: Yes. I thought about 303, but he really doesn't do well with Disney mascots.
Angel 17: Thats why you're the big guy. I can't wait until he figures this one out.
God: Wait-a-sec. Is EVERYONE under the impression that these "signs" mean something?
Angel 17: -gulp-
