WTF Wednesday

So a new thing we’ll be trying is the WTF Wednesday. The first WTF thought of the day is that I actually made a reference using the character, Ricky Bobby. OMG WTF.



The only really funny thing about the movie is him being locked in the car with the puma. It’s not really funny as it is I hoped he died so the movie would end there. Alas he did not. Then today I’m talking with Hoover and I say, even Ricky Bobby got the girl. Really. I know I’ll hang my head in shame.



However that got me to thinking about WTF moments



One of them was about Doodle meeting some kid online and becoming friends. They talked for a while online, he even wrote a pretty catchy little song that wasn’t all that bad. She comes up to me one day and say hey dad this guy is coming to town.



I say, really?



She says, yeah, can we hang out?



I say, I’m not sure I’m thrilled about this.



What if you can meet him first.



Let me think about it. Which is dad for most likely No but I don't want to say no right now but if you can come up with a reasonable reason for me to say yes I will change my mind. Did I mention that Doodle has always been really logical even when she was 5.



She tells the boy that I’ll think about it then he tells her, that his dad wants to meet her too.



Doodle comes back with this info and I’m thinking well if his Dad is insisting on meeting my child and I’m insisting on meeting his child then we can assess the whole thing and then we adults will be there and they will have to tell us the same story.



So I say sure if I’m meeting the other adult involved in this. Doodle is all Yay, the kid is all Yay. I’m all this kid better be normal and I’m sure his dad was thinking the same thing.



The day comes when the kid is in town. The plan is that they want to walk around down town and shop, get some food and just hang out for a bit. So we head to the down town area. We get to the meeting spot and I’m looking at this guy thinking I know him. And he is looking at me like I know him. The kids look at each other and are All hey OMG so glad to see you IRL and junk. The introductions are just about to start and my brain goes CLICK. I used to work with this guy before he moved away and I say Hey (insert actual name) Guy. How are you.



He says, Hey Invisible Don, I’m good how about you.



I’m still working for the place



Things still the same?... the conversation didn't get much deep than that.



Both our kids are like WTF our dads know each other. We get there plan and both dads are feeling much better about this whole thing because we know one another and the kids aren’t exactly complete strangers.



They did hang out for a bit that day and they talked for a while longer online. They may even be friends, I’m not sure.

I’ll have to check with doodle.



In other WTF stuff



Lifetime Movies have like a hypno-ray or something in them that just pull you in and you are all like I just watched a three hour movie about nothing. If you like these movies fine I’m just saying that they just suck you in and then there you are for those three hours.



So yeah that really good news is really good news and the really bad part of that news is really bad.



In completely unrelated news the new Matt Damon movie, The Adjustment Bureau looks freaking awesome



Litter box thoughts - what do you think about when scooping the litter box. Today I was like, hmm the cats didn’t really do much today. I’m sure tomorrow will be more productive. Gross.



That’s all for now, other stuff tomorrow



Happy Birthday if it’s your birthday and a very merry un birthday if it isn’t your birthday
