While opening Christmas stockings:
“Nickels? Two rolls of nickels?”
“I’m not very good at the stocking thing yet.”
“Clearly.”

“And then we watched some Monsters vs. Aliens.”
“What?! Oh my God, I can’t believe you let her watch that!”
“Why not? She loves it.”
“Because it’s violent and scary, that’s why. Wait, that’s not right, is it?”
“Good grief. You’re thinking of Alien vs. Predator.”
“Oh. Yeah, I am. Whoops. Wrong movie.”
“Puh-leez. If I were going to have Coraline watch an action movie, it would at least be a good one.”

Noticeably paling: “And this little piggy went ‘bleccccccch.'”

“Why does my puppy’s breath smell like a humidor?”
Gasping: “My cigar!”
“Your cigar?”
“I was smoking a cigar outside and tucked the unfinished part in the windowsill.”
“The puppy-level windowsill?”
“Yeah.”
“Didn’t think that one out, did you?”

The tail end of a several-minutes long diatribe while discussing home improvement projects:
“I HATE that short hobbit toilet so much! Someday, when we replace it, I want to sledgehammer it to smithereens. I HATE it. It’s so gross. I keep expecting Ewan McGregor to pop up out of it.”
Sighing in exasperation: “Are you done?”
Taking a bow: “And scene!”

“Arrrrrggggggghhhhhh!”

My Funny for the Day: Business Time
While we were visiting our friends in Columbus recently, one night they asked if we were fans of Flight of the Conchords. “Frodo, Don’t Wear the Ring” has always been at the top of my list, but I think that may have been knocked down a peg since Chris and Laura had us watch “Business Time.” Maybe it’s because I’ve been married almost 13 years, or maybe it’s because I could relate to the part about sorting the recycling (although never as foreplay), or maybe it’s just because I find this song hilarious, but I laughed so hard the first time I watched it I cried a bit. Things that strike me as so funny I cry are far and few between.
