Another scene from my life.
Mom: blah blah blah batshit crazy blah
Me: I usually say batshit insane.
Dad: ... shithat? ...
Mom: ??? Asshat?
Dad: I'm mixing metaphors. Trying to pick up the lingo.
***
My mother bought a bottle of Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale. I think it tastes loathsome, but I have been gleefully proclaiming "Grail Ale!" throughout dinner.
***
Yesterday, Hugh and I installed a few outlet boxes, drilled some holes, and marked some studs in the apartment next door. Relatedly, something from Auriel:
A guy and a girl. He might have red hair, but it’s hard to tell under all the plaster dust. She is also covered in plaster, holding a hammer incompetently although she seems to think she knows what she’s doing. He holds a screwdriver with less confidence but considerably more competence. Both are looking up, toward the viewer but really toward the large hole where the ceiling has just fallen in on top of them. She looks slightly mystified, whereas he is merely resigned.
