all the small things, part 4

After a wee hiatus, I'm picking up where I left off here, here and here.

31. I don't like the word "pilaf." I'll eat it but I don't like the word one bit.

32. I still have a woobie that I sleep with every night.

33. I take my woobie with me on overnight trips... even business ones. I can't sleep without it.

34. I cut the woobie into two pieces and gave half to THE EX. After we broke up, she gave me back another sentimental gift I'd given her... but she kept the woobie. No one can resist the allure of the woobie.

35. I use the words "dude," "awesome," "like" and "anyhoo" far too much.

36. I don't use the word "circumlocution" nearly enough.

37. The difference between "secular" and "non-secular" always trips me up and sends me scrambling for the dictionary.

38. When I was a kid, I won a game of Scrabble through a contest sponsored by Alpha-Bits cereal. I didn't tell my mother I entered so she yelled at me when the UPS guy came with my prize because she thought I ordered something C.O.D.

39. I was the type of kid who would order something C.O.D.

40. My favorite joke (aside from the whole Helen Keller series, of course) goes a little something like this:
Q: Why did the monkey fall out of the tree?
A: Because it was dead.
Thank you, ladies and germs. I'll be here all week.
