make a wish...

I've finally come up with my "make a wish" wish. you know, the "what would your dream be if you were granted your "dying wish."

Ok, well I've decided that mine would be to be in a Muppet movie with Amy Grant.

I've already come up with the plot, it would go something like this....

First of all, just to clarify, Amy and I would be the humans that interact with the Muppet's. Ok, so it would start out with some funny spat with Gonzo and the band...then maybe Amy would audition to be in their band and then Animal would eat her guitar and i would be the band manager and wear a beret.

Then we would be forced to work together to save Miss Piggy who has accidentally sold herself into slavery to a tribal community of cannibals.

So we write these new songs (and I help with the lyrics and designing awesome posters at which point Amy realizes that I have HUGE potential and we agree to work together once the movie is over.) Then these new songs end up being a giant hit with the cannibals and they decide to let Miss Piggy go as long as they can eat Sam Eagle. But then we explain that Sam Eagle has to sing bass in the song and that the songs wont' be the same if he's eaten, so they realize that it would be in their best interest not to eat anyone and they become vegetarians with an emphasis on bananas. Conflict resolution.

Then Amy and I, along with beeker, Sam Eagle, Kermit, the shrimp (who when we call him "shrimp" says, "no! I am King Prawn!") board our boat which is magical and takes us back to the studio where we end the movie with an awesome music video that i choreograph, direct and star in (with Amy and the Muppet's of course).

The end.

(but then Amy and I continue to collaborate in all of her future projects and she includes me in all her credits, referring to me as her "Muppet friend".)

the end for real.

the goose must be getting fat...

...because Christmas is coming!

wahoo... well speaking of Christmas, what do you think my job duties are for the next 2 weeks? Decorating Christmas trees. Yep, i am getting paid to spread holiday cheer. Sigh. this is truly a holiday blessing.

Of course by the end of next week we'll see if i have any motivation left to decorate my own tree, but I'll have a couple days until that because you aren't really supposed to decorate until after Thanksgiving, but when you've got 13 trees to do you have to start early.

Good thing I've been listening to Xmas music for 2 months to get me in the spirit! ;)

things i'm afraid of

i had a run-in with one of these last night...guess which one.

things I'm afraid of list A (not sure if there's a list B but probably there is)

-snakes
-bizarre and scary textures/patterns (ex. the inside of a green pepper)
-stairs
-ordering pizza
-tape measures
-strangers with knives (i had to put another normal one in here)
-ladders
-people who say "cool beans"
- sweater vests

this is kind of a random post, but since most of my posts are kind of random i guess this makes this one ordinary. Blah and ordinary. Like cauliflower.
