How low can you bingo

Apparently I'm a pretty decent Bingo caller. I even had some (admittedly lame) Bingo jokes:

• "I-35. Like the highway!"
• "B-12. The vitamin!"

Okay that was all my jokes. When calling out an N number, someone did ask if I said "N" or "M," so I politely had to remind them that it was spelled B-I-N-G-O, not B-I-M-G-O.

Good times had by all, clearly.

Booze clues

I went on the Express website yesterday because it has been YEARS since I've shopped there and I wanted to see what I was missing. Clearly, I was missing a hangover. Here is just a sampling of t-shirts for sale:

Every. Single. One mentions alcohol. Now, I'm no prude - I enjoy a mimosa as much as the next gal. But this seems a bit excessive and offensive. All we're good at is drinking? Hey, girls - here's an idea: put down the bottle and get a job. #generationgap #backtotalbots

A young Keanu and Joaquin? Sign me up!

Watched Parenthood last night. The movie from the 80s, not the recent TV series it was based on. Both were excellent; but man the movie brings back such fond memories (particularly because I can quote most of it by heart). And scenes like this crack me up, mostly because my brother used to run around with a bucket on his head as well:

Why-ee indeed

I want to go see the Backstreet Boys in Vegas this summer, so I have been listening to them on my iPod recently. (Okay, I don't need an excuse. I just like them, okay??) And I've realized they have their own little dialect happening.

On "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)," they sing "everybah-day-ah" instead of just "everybody"

On "I Want it That Way," it's "tell me why-eee" instead of just "tell me why"

What IS that? Then again, NSYNC had "it's gonna be MAY," so maybe it's a boy band thing. We may never know.

I dig gardening. (See what I did there??)

Y'all. My vegetable garden. Has overtaken my yard. Check it:

What you're looking at are tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, spinach, cucumbers, carrots and snap peas (the giant monstrosity in the middle). Everything except the tomato I planted from seeds, so it's super rewarding (and I realize a sound like a super nerd). Anyone need any veggies? Ain't no way I can eat all of this. #farmersmarketinmydriveway

Car Smell: An Update

In an effort to eliminate the gasoline odor in my car (going on three weeks now; I think I am immune to it which is even scarier), I read white vinegar helps. One bottle of vinegar later, I bet you can guess what my car smells like now. Not sure which is worse, honestly. Next up: coffee beans. STAT.

Single White Female

As I mentioned, my mom is currently living with me. Although it's going well, there are certain things she does that drive me bananas. And when I write them out, I look like I'm insane.

• Flips light switches so they are in the "on" position when the lights are off and vice versa
• Keeps moving the sponge from it's "spot" on the left side of the sink to the right
• Doesn't believe in leaving the front porch light on
• Watering the yard for 45+ minutes

But really, 4 ain't so bad. (I'm sure there are plenty more; these were just top-of-mind.)
