Denny’s teeth are in my purse

Filed under: — Aprille @ 1:21 pm

Remind me to take those out before I horrify some well-meaning cashier somewhere.

Denny got his wisdom teeth out this morning. Everything went just fine; the oral surgeon said there were no problems with nerves and he doesn’t anticipate any issues. Denny’s relaxing on the couch watching basketball right now. His favorite team is winning.

Edited to add:

Many of you are probably at work and are therefore Tivo-ing or taping the game that just ended. Out of kindness to you, I will not comment on the results.

Last night my favorite teams were Gonzaga and George Washington, and they both won. I was running on the treadmill when Denny turned the games on, and even though I was still listening to my audiobook, I found myself half paying attention. Both those teams were behind when we started watching, but they both ended up winning.

I like Gonzaga because my childhood penpal was from Spokane, and also their star player looks like he should be in the Ramones. I like George Washington because that’s the name of the elementary school the kid in the movie Big went to, and people assumed he meant the university. And then he spit out the caviar and misunderstood what the sexy lady meant when she said she wanted to spend the night. Comedy gold, people.

    your selection criteria for favorites is both scientific and sports-savvy. i am duly impressed.

    ahem…

    I find my criteria no less sensible than the random fact of geographic proximity to the team, which is the reason most people I know like the teams they do.

    oh – i’m not disagreeing at all… 😉 in fact, you’ve probably applied more thought to the matter than 98.763% of sports fans…

    it’s all rather tribal in any case. fun, but tribal…

    That post title really conjurs an image of you as some badass femme fatale straight out of a Robert Rodriguez film. I’m thinking black two-piece jacket/skirt combo, red four-inch heels, red clutch purse, and a sharp black hat with a small, dyed (red) quail feather tucked in the band capping off your tightly-bound ‘do. Oh, and deep red lipstick a la Anne Hathaway.

    Maybe that’s what I’ll be for Halloween. When people ask me what’s in my purse, I’ll be like, “Human teeth.”
