T-shirt Tuesday

This weeks T-shirt Tuesday is brought to us from Tabitha on "Shear Genius". I don't know if anyone else even watched or remembers this show. It was on Bravo and it was like Project Runway for hairdressers. Anyway, Tabitha had the nickname figjam for Tyson (one of her cocky competitors). No one really knew what it meant, but when finally asked she said it stands for "Fuck I'm Great Just Ask Me." What can I say? I just couldn't resist.

T-shirt Tuesday

I'm going to have to take a day off from work soon and catch up on these t-shirts. My list to make greatly outweighs actual t-shirts made. For now, here's one more on the to make side.

Lunch Lady Land

You know, I find that life would be much more interesting if it were more like a musical. Not really, but I still find this clip hysterical. Imagine if you're lunch was like that.

T-shirt Tuesday

Since last week's T-shirt Tuesday was just an idea for an upcoming t-shirt, I thought that this week I would show you a t-shirt that I already made. There was this line of greeting cards (wish I could remember it) that made these hysterical cards. One in card came into my life during a particularly over-worked time in my life. I remember receiving this card from my friend C and reading it one night after having worked for about 16-20 hours (really who knows?...i was delirious). The card had a one panel cartoon on the front that was hills and cans of corn all throughout the picture. The caption..."Its sad really, cause back in the day cans of corn roamed the hills as far as the eyes could see" Well, that did it for me. I was thrown into a fit of laughter that was the exact therapy I needed at the time. The line on the inside was simple "Life's weird, enjoy it" (this was actually what every card in this series said on the inside) and C wrote a note saying I should check out the back of the card. On the back of the card was a much smaller panel and it had the following poem.....
A Poem About Corn
I like corn.
Corn is good.
Corn in a pan.
Corn also.
Well, I just lost it. If I was laughing before I was in tears now. For some reason that struck me a the funniest thing ever. Over time, this was shared w/ most of our group of friends, and like things often do w/ friends, this took on a life of its own. For awhile, if someone was having a bad day we would call and recite this poem into their voicemail. Eventually (and still to this day), it is a mini-SOS for us to use. When you have a bad day, you call one of us up and simply say corn also, and I guarantee we'll be laughing in a second.

Cold Weather Blues

The expression "If you don't like the weather in Missouri, wait 5 minutes" is going to be getting much use today. This weekend was absolutely beautiful. It was sunny and 65 degrees. I was wearing shorts and t-shirt yesterday. This morning however is a different story. It is 34 degrees and that is the projected high today. In addition, we are expected to receive 2-4 inches of snow by the end of the day. This sort of inclement weather never occurs on my day off when I could just stay in curled up on the couch watching movies or here on my computer. No, instead it always occurs on the days that I need to be a grown-up: work, gym, grocery store, assorted other errands. Oh, glorious snow days of my youth, why have you foresaken me? For real though, I'm done with the cold weather but apparently the cold weather is not done with me.

The Amazing Race

I do love me some online quizzes. I think that this is a pretty accurate result. This is one of my favorite reality shows. I would love to travel and see the world, but I'm pretty sure that I'd suck at some of the challenges. Also, I'd probably be that player that stresses out and yells at their partner...haha. My favorite is when contestants are in another country and they don't speak the language and they try to communicate with one or two equally stupid methods.
  1. continue to speak English only do it slower and louder. Slower and louder apparently helps people who don't speak English to understand it.
  2. continue to speak English, however, on key words add el to the beginning and o to the end, and always use rapido to mean fast. Ex: I need to get to el airporto rapido. I need el doctoro rapido I am el sicko <--haha

Sidenote: Seeing el sicko reminded me that in high school Spanish class we all went by Spanish names. There were several Jasons in the class, so my Spanish name was Frederico based off of my last name. One day the teacher had a student passing out a quiz that she had graded. Everyone else had received their quiz except me and the student was walking around w/ one quiz left and a confused look on his face. Finally, he stops in the middle of the room and asks "Who is Freak-o?" The teacher hadn't felt like writing out my entire Spanish name so she wrote F-rico. I thought it was hysterical and somewhat appropriate, so that became my Spanish name for the rest of the year.
