I have to go potty
While we were camping Espen wore a one peice long john/thermal type of outfit under his clothes. Late at night, in the cold, he announced that he had to go potty. I told Jeremy to take him since apparently it was a poop situation. Jeremy asked about Espen's little long johns.
Me: There's a flap for that
Jeremy: Is that the new app for iPoop?
Ahahahahh!
Paddington Bear
Me: (addressing an envelope) Pennington, Pennington
Jeremy: Is that where the bear is from?
Me: Babe, that's Paddington.
Jeremy: Well not, while they were waiting for him to be made...then he was Pennington, Pendington Bear.
Hey, he tried.
Jeremy: Is that where the bear is from?
Me: Babe, that's Paddington.
Jeremy: Well not, while they were waiting for him to be made...then he was Pennington, Pendington Bear.
Hey, he tried.

Hey now, wait a minute Mr. Post Man
If you know Jeremy & I then you know that we like to come up with movie ideas. Almost all of which could star Will Farrell.
Our latest, not only could make an amazing Oscar worthy movie but also paved the way for one of Jeremy's best 'play on words' to date.
A charismatic, yet scheming politician is campaigning to be the next President. A major part of his campaign is that he promises to bring the US Postal Service back to what it once was. He gets the support of the postal workers and the rest of the country and wins the race. A year into his term a scandal ensues and he is impeached. With his name synonomis with scum and no retirement checks from the government he is forced to find a 'job'. Disguised as an 'average joe' a manager of a post office hires him on as a postman. It turns out he is REALLy good at this job, he knows everyone on his route by name, 'hey Jim, how's the wife, is Bobby still on honor roll' type of stuff. Everyone on his route loves him, not knowing his true identity. He loves his job. One of the families on his route has a sick child and is in need of money to help with 'an operation' so he puts an ad up on the bulletin board in his post office and takes out an ad in the local paper: Send a dollar to 123 ABC Street and help a sick child. The neighborhood responds, the whole thing goes viral. People are mailing dollars to this family from all across the country. The child has the operation and is healthier than ever. Everyone is happy. The Postal Service begins crunching numbers. A huge increase in stamp sales puts the Postal Service back in the green and they realize...it was from everyone mailing dollars to the sick child, an idea brought about by the 'post man/disguised ex-president'. The president, feeling a sense of purpose in life decides to come forward as the ex-president, but continues his job as a post man. The nation once again loves him.
All right, so what's the title of this movie.
Imagine if you will, me on the couch, it's late, the lights are off. I ask Jeremy what's the title? As he slips off into the dark hallway, without missing a beat he says...
Jeremy: Post-Presidency
Effiing GENIUS.

Patch
Did anyone else have a major crush on Steve "Patch" Johnson on Days of Our Lives and did anyone else cry their eyes out 20 years ago when Patch was poisoned which ended the days of his life (I had to).
Well, I remember him (and wouldn't you know in true Soap Opera form, 16 years later, Patch was ALIVE and back at it in Salem) and I will always remember him. He was HOT. Patch or no patch!
So, Jeremy and I were leaving Fresh & Easy this morning when we saw a disheveled old man in front of the 99cent store. I immediately thought of "Patch", pulled up his photo on my phone and began to tell Jeremy about his character and the love I had for him till he met his untimely death.
Jeremy: Was this Patch guy shot?
Me: No, he drove his car off a cliff or something
Jeremy: (In his 'movie trailer voice over' voice) Stay tuned to Days of Our Lives, will Patch be prepared for his final 'act'cident?
Yep, that was a good one.

Church Lady
I was explaining to Jeremy about a new feature for the Twins and Co. website called Spatial Match. I told him about all the ins and outs and how it works. His response:
"Well, isn't that spatial"
...there you have it.
"Well, isn't that spatial"
...there you have it.
