Two interesting things, both starring Katie.
Katie: Did I ever tell you I was almost the hula hoop princess of Canada?
Me: ...
Katie: My grandfather bought the patent for the hula hoop. I could have been a multimillionaire heiress.
Me: But then he got drunk and lost the rights in a drunken, midnight, high-stakes poker game with a badger?
Katie: No.
Me: Too late, I have my Nano now.
But a little before that came this:
*doorbell, offstage*
Katie: So not getting that.
Me: Ugh... *answers door*
Insane Neighbour Lady: Um, you need to move your car. Now.
Me: It's not our car.
Insane Neighbour Lady: You. Need to move. Your car. Now.
Me: Yeah, it's not our car.
Insane Neighbour Lady: That black car? That's not your car?!
Me: Nope, not our car.
Insane Neighbour Lady: You need to move your car.
Me: ... It's not ours.
Insane Neighbour Lady: Oh. *walks away*
Katie: Did she actually not even say sorry?
Me: No.
Katie: And she didn't say hello? Is there even a car in our spot?
Me: Nope.
Katie: ... What a bitch!

Date: 2009-10-26 10:53 pm (UTC)On a loosely-connected not, I noticed you tagged this under 'helpful hints for daily life'. I'm fairly certain that the helpful hint your second story taught me was not to leave my invisible black car where nosy neighbors can find it. I shall promptly go out and put this hint to practice!
At least you get a chuckle from the insanity of the situation, yes?
