*Last week we were watching the season finale of America's Got Talent (I still can't believe Prince Poppycock didn't win! Boo! Boo, I say!) and James Bond heard them say David Copperfield would be on the last show. Here's our conversation:
JB: Did they say David Copperfield?
Me: Yes.
JB: Really? David Copperfield? THE David Copperfield.
Me: Yes. Why? Are you a fan?
JB: Are you kidding? He's the reason I didn't go into magic!
Me: Wait, what? He's....the reason you didn't go into magic?
JB: Yeah, you can't compete with him. He floated across the Grand Canyon! Did you see that?
Me: Yes.
JB: He made a plane just disappear! On an empty tarmac!
Me: So before that, you were going to go into magic?
JB: Well, it was my fall back.
Me: You were going to be a dentist, but magic was your fall back?
JB: Yeah, neither of those really worked out did they? I blame the magic on David Copperfield though. You just can't compete with that. I'm not sure why I didn't become a dentist, but the magic is definitely because of David Copperfield.
Me: I think he was suppose to inspire you.
JB: He did! He inspired me not to go into magic. I knew I couldn't compete.
Me: {facepalm}
*I've been having the craziest dreams lately. Last night I dreamed I worked at a cattle ranch (wait, let that sink in..me, working at a cattle ranch). I went into the local bar and drank 3-4 beers (I only like the first sip of an ice cold beer and only from a bottle, so this was weird too), and I woke up, having to pee like crazy. How unfair is that?
*I also dreamed there was a portal to another world under the bed in our guest room and for some reason Jackie Chan had to go through the portal.
*We went to a big Viking Fest this weekend. We had just finished learning about Vikings last week, so it was perfect timing. I'll have more about this later this week, including photos.
*Why are goth kids so fascinated with going to period fairs and fests? If they actually dressed in all black and had random things pierced 500-1000 years ago they'd probably have been burned at the stake. I'm just saying.
*This sicks still has me down peeps. I've got no more random. I have sadness though. For you. You are clearly missing out.
*Why doesn't my microwave have this button?
Hit the weird button to read the other randoms.

Cook a Bit More- I want that button too. You're right about the Goth kids. I never thought about the fact they would have been burned for being a witch. How did you keep a straight face with JB on the Copperfield topic. I would have laughed out loud!
ReplyDeleteHysterically funny conversation with your hubby - he couldn't compete with David Copperfield...priceless! ;)
ReplyDeleteI had a vision of you working the cattle ranch...in high heels! *giggle*
Looking forward to the Viking Fest update with photos! ;)
I need a 'cook more' button on my microwave!
RTT: Summer's End, Winemaking and Barf
I'm excited about the Viking fest! Can't wait to see the pics.
ReplyDeleteCook a bit more? That is the best. And JB's reasoning is totally sound.
ReplyDeleteHa ha...I never thought of the Goth kid angle either. That's funny.
ReplyDeleteI am envious of the random dreams right now. I know I am dreaming, but I can't remember them at all!
Great Convo with JB! Hillarious! Hope you start feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteI hung around with a whole lot of goth kids (including going to goth clubs... when the music ends there's just so much PVC squeaking...) when I was a teenager and always wondered the same thing...
ReplyDeleteYou made me laugh outloud with the GOth's attending Faires. :)
ReplyDeleteSo true.
I NEED the cook a bit more button.
