A few of my favorite things – email trailz with CC
Editors Note: We discuss a few of my favorite things, including: Jon Knight, Texas, Florida, golf, NKOTB, poodles, Olivia Newton-John and cowboys.
Meredith: Hey, ONJ was on the Today show this morning! Still have a crush on her?!
Me: My heart will go on. I lost my affection for her after the “Let’s Get Physical” video.
Meredith: One of my friends forwarded me an online article from the Globe about the New Kids reunion tour, and I was like, “Hey, I think I know that guy!” So are you the mysterious Lamberti, 29, from Somerville?! Hilarious!!! I saw their Today show performance on tv- it was a little sketchy. Jon was looking around like he didn’t remember the moves.
Me: Leave Jon Alone!
Meredith: I couldn’t make the NKOTB concert
me: I can’t believe you missed the concert. You’ve really changed…
Meredith: Something crazy came up, and I wasn’t able to go.
me: still can’t believe you’re missing that concert (silently shaking head)
Meredith: Don’t hate me for me not attending NKOTB!
me: more silence
Meredith: Ok, I am trying to make it to the NY one. What do I have to do in order for you to forgive me?! Sheesh! Tsk tsk…
Meredith: Tell me you are watching NKOTB on the AMA’s???
me: I missed it! How were they?
Meredith: The usual…donnie, joey and jordan rocked it…danny was danny and jon….well, ya know! It was cool. Made me sad that I missed the concert 🙁
me: unbelievable Meredith. you should be ashamed.
Meredith: Yeah, I suppose I will never live it down. Oh well. The Madonna concert was awesome though. Are you in TX?!
me: I am in D-A-L-L-A-S looking for a job and a place to live. Madonna sucks.
Meredith: Oh snap! Don’t hate! D-A-L-L-A-S is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
me: You should join facebook. We can be “facebook friends”. It’s quite exciting.
Meredith: Yeah, everyone I know keeps asking why I haven’t joined facebook…is it really that cool?!
me: No.
Meredith: I’m finally going to be in Boston the week afer next. No WWE – we’re too old to pretend that stuff is not fake.
me: oh yeah… well Grey’s Anatomy is fake too. and so are other things! so there!
me: Did I tell you that I am moving to TX for a little bit in a month?
Meredith: Dude, You so did. You explained that you were going to visit your bro, and that you were seeking a warmer climate?!
Meredith: Please don’t become a FL retiree!
me: To help me with organizational needs, I’m deleting this message. From henceforthithertoafter it is leaving my recollection and consciousness.
Meredith: Ok, I won’t remind you of your randomness. You prob won’t even remember me when you become a cowboy…
me: yeeeeeeeee-haaaaaaaaaaw!!!
Meredith: Like Joey Lawrence would say- whoa!
me: I have actually become a Rays fan because I’d like to retire in Florida.
Meredith: Argh. I’m not even going to attempt to respond to that one…
me: I like golf and poodles.
Meredith: Well, goodnight Lamb. Sweet dreams of golf and poodles?!
me: And cupcakes.
Meredith: thought we we talking abt FL. There are poodles and golfing where old people congregate…not so sure abt cupcakes! Ahhhh…this conversation is taking on a whole new spin…
me: Old people like cupcakes too. No age discrimination!
Meredith: I love old people…not cupcakes. Pie is better. What are you doing home on a Friday night?!
me: Um, I’m temporarily living in New Hampshire. Not exactly the life of the party over here.
me: i’m sending so many emails its like i’m spamming you right now
Meredith: Yes, you are spamming me….I don’t know if it’s an attempt to tease me or get more incriminating conversations for that lil’ website of your’s!
me: don’t worry. no one ever goes there. they might though because i am in the midst of a heavy advertising campaign
Meredith: Advertising? For what?! Do I dare ask?
me: i’m advertising my website on facebook! (not real advertising, fake advertising)
Meredith: There’s no such thing as fake advertising! Maybe false, but not fake!
me: you mean like my teeth?
Meredith: Love how you added the pics for further illustration and emphasis. I signed your flippin’ guest book.
Meredith: Hey, my friend works with Joey M’s sister!
me: Did you call my guestbook “flippin”??? NO WAY ABOUT JOEY’S SISTER. THAT IS FREAKING CRAZY. THAT IS BANANAS. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
Meredith: Hulk creeped me out ever since he did that reality show with his family and creepy things with his daughter Brooke. Macho
Man and Rowdy Rod Piper were a close second, although I don’t find guys in kilts to be very hot. He was on tmz recently and he’s a total tool. Oh, and I missed Jake the Snake Roberts even though I am afraid of snakes. And Jake.
me: I have no idea what TMZ is.
Meredith: Mark, do you live in a cave?
me: I do live in a cave. I’m batman.
I don’t know what you do up here in Northern Indiana. Where I came from, on Friday nights, we used to get in our Dads’ trucks cause they used to build those trucks so that you could run over anything and it wouldn’t hurt them. You know, the old gravel roads, they just ran straight for miles and miles and miles. You never had to turn your car because you were always going in one direction until you wanted to go in another direction and then you had to wait until you came to a road to make a turn and then you’d make the turn and go straight in that direction for a long ways.
