punchy

i was just in the shower laughing about
this....
had to share.

this very well could be one of those
famous 'you had to be there's....'

josh and i both had very long days
for very different reasons.
we're both fried.

he needed something from me.
i told him what i thought were exact
directions to it:

go into my studio, turn left, bottom
shelf on the metal shelves right behind
the pictures leaning against it.

how direct is that?!

he couldn't find it.

i ran down and pulled out the stack of
folders he needed and put them on the
floor in the middle of the room.

he needs me later to find the papers.
go figure.
they're in the folder marked clearly
what they are. second folder in the stack.

so i look up from the floor and say
rather snippily 'josh, do you see those
metal shelves? do you see the hole there
where i got these papers right from
behind those pictures??? do you see this
folder marked clearly??'

i had had enough today and was just feelin'
totally spent.

he was feelin' exactly the same way.

he gets all fired up and says 'well just so you
know.....this is an art studio. you say it's
behind the pictures....well.....there's like
ten million pictures down here!'

i grinned when he said it. it diffused what
coulda been a major snit fit between us.

and as i was in the shower i kept hearin'
him say 'well, just so you know...this is
an art studio and there's like ten million
pictures down here!'

and i kept laughing and laughing.

i think i'm totally spent. now turning
punchy. that just makes me laugh and laugh.

sometimes you just gotta know when to say
goodnite......

goodnite.
