ding don't

what i love about life is that every day is a new and exciting adventure. yesterday at work i was in my office with the general manager, our amusements manager and ann and we we're talking about spaghetti-o's and i said that spaghetti-o's make me want a ding dong. my gm said what's a ding dong? and i said it's the hostess snack cake that looks like a hockey puck and comes wrapped in aluminum foil. and the amusements manager said no, that's a cupcake. and i said no a cupcake has the white curly-q of frosting on the top. and she said no a ding dong is the long yellow one. and i said NO that is a TWINKIE... raise your hand if you grew up next to the hostess factory!!! (i didn't feel like mentioning that ding dongs were just about the only thing i ate for all of seventh grade). she seemed unconvinced so at that point i decided to pull out the last card i had... google. so we surfed over to google images where i entered "ding dongs" and came out with like a cartoon drawing of a ding dong man with a baton who generally looked like what i had described if what i had described had suddenly become the leader of a band. to further illustrate my point i entered in "twinkie" where we saw a picture of what she had been describing and she was convinced. at this point ann says well then whats a hoho? so typed in "ho ho" and google said excuse me do you mean "hoho" and i said yes and we got to see a picture of a hoho. and so i thought maybe i should have typed "dingdong" and what should pop on the screen that ann, the amusements manager, the general manager and i were all staring it at but... naked asian men. ASIAN PORN. i screamed and closed the browser immediately as everyone bust out laughing (mostly at the fact that i had instantly turned red... and not just my face but all of me was completely red) and i made them all swear that if IT tried to fire me they were my witnesses that i was just trying to look at snack cakes. the moral of the story is never search google images for "dingdong" (unless you're into that) and also i have an absurd amount of knowledge regarding the hostess snack cake line (because i'm into that).

yesterday i was leaving a business seminar and i got lost (but not really lost b/c the gps was telling me where to go but it wasn't a normal way b/c i turned the wrong way even though i have a gps) and i came though on the most wonderful road i've ever seen. the trees created a tunnel around the road and i just wanted to be there forever. it's the little things.

i'm feeling really good lately.

tomorrow i'm having dinner with a friend at nacho mama's. NACHO MAMA'S. i've never been there before but i love it based solely on the name. they could serve me a microwaved tortilla with a kraft single on it and i would still love it.
