Maybe this will have the skit I’ve been trying to track down for my mom for years! She has a very clear memory of a skit where Carol Burnett plays a woman on a date with a man who takes her back to his place to hear his “amazing new sound system”. He keeps messing around with the placement of the woofers and tweeters…

I would have been cutting out that form and sending away for my FREE VOLUME immediately. I’m definitely one of those women. No shame.

Yep. Exactly what you said. Being eternally in the greys is like being back in elementary school where I wanted so much to be part of the conversation with the cool kids, but they couldn’t be bothered to even look at me. Eh...we can start our own club! The Grey Ones. :D

Every year right around this time (ie just before Labor Day), I get the urge to buy a pair of great white high heels. I guess I’m a rebel for fashion... or more likely simply in denial of the fact that summer is nigh well over.

I for one welcome our new alien overlords.

But wait, that’s actually kind of interesting....?

Holy crap. I hadn’t seen that one yet.

You have no idea how much I had been there to witness that. It sounds amazing.

I saw those mannequins a few months ago and still cannot shake them from my nightmares. They are terrifying. Truly terrifying. How anybody could think they were suitable for display in a department store is beyond me. Madame Tussaud’s House of Alien Horrors, perhaps.

Obviously the real question is why would you tote a toddler onto the dance floor for the bouquet toss in the first place??

This one is awesome because I can just imagine the sheer panic of trying to buy foundation without knowing which will match AND find a bolero...all on that morning.

I love this story and I love your MIL. :)

Amaaaazing.

Agree x 100000. Also, half the time they look like dead babies.

Until I read your post, I thought those shirts were just people being ironic and digging on the vegetable. Like "Keep Calm and Kale On", or something like that. I'm being serious. I'm really glad you mentioned those shirts so now I know what the hell is going on (and that the wearer doesn't necessarily like baked…

I love everything about this post.

Does anybody know how/where the HBO Drew Barrymore film can be viewed? It's not currently on NetFlix Streaming. I'd love to see it.
