Quotables!

Sometimes I consider taking certain conversations out of Quotables, but then it just never happens.

***

Laura: My day has basically consisted of letting the kids run wild while I eat chips and salsa.

Becca: Oh! We could watch this documentary about artifacts, photographs and journals tell the story of 350 American GI's who were held at Berga, a secretive Nazi concentration camp!

Erin: Oh we could! We just need milkshakes and we'll be DONE!

Erin: I've hugged many a child.

Lauren: Do you wanna try that again?

Becca: THAT IS EXACTLY WHY IT’S BANNED!

Becca: Are you ready to try again? You're clearly not.

Erin: But I HAVE hugged many a child!!!

Normal roommate conversations

Becca: Pee. I must. Before shower. I also have three blankets on. It's perfect.

KB: But how will you pee if you're so cozy? I still have to take my contacts out and stuff before I shower, so you can pee now or later.

Becca: Lol I'm ready to pee at any time. You just let me know when. Also, I'm bringing all my blankets with me.

KB: Potty's free! I wish I could watch you try to navigate your blankets and that that wish weren't so creepy.

Becca: Showers free! And you wouldn't be a good roommate if you didn't have creepy wishes of seeing me pee with blankets.

Leaving church

Rebecca: Maggie is driving. This is kind of scary.

KB: good luck... when will you be home?

Rebecca: probably Tuesday.

KB: Are you gonna turn into a foodie? Cuz I don’t know if I can live with a foodie.

Becca: What?! I don’t know what a foodie is. But I DO know that YOU have more FOODIE than anyone in this house! If anyone’s a foodie it’s you! Of ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE WORLD to ask me that….

KB: Should I buy food? I don’t know. I just don’t know.

Becca: Well you need probs more nourishment than beans

Becca: Will you peoples be around saturday around noon??

KB: Not me, I’ll be teaching. Wherefore?

Becca: Prayer partna might come here fore art thou….my Shakespeare is rusty…

KB: Thou totally just rockedest Shakespeare

Becca: Thy heart flutters with bliss

KB: I forgot to take my sausage and bacon out to thaw this morning. Woe is me.

Becca: My heart does not fluttereth

Becca: So one of your curly hairs came into my room earlier.

KB: What, all by itself? It just bounced in like doink doink doink?

Becca: Yeah, all by itself. And I haven't shaved in a while so I was lifting up my pant leg to see how long my hair was--

KB: AND YOU HAD A LEG HAIR THAT WAS LIKE THREE FEET LONG.

Becca: UH HUH!

Genise: ARRRGGHHHHH. I just wanna light them all on fire and be done with it!...................... THE PAPERS, NOT THE KIDS.

I overhear a conversation in the morning

KB: Mike, what did you say?

Mike: *unintelligible*

KB: WHAT?

Mike: CONVERTING… what did you think I said?

KB: Oohh. Well it sound like Kelly said, “Hi Mike, you’re so cute,” and then you said, “Tim Burton,” but then I thought that either of those things couldn’t really have been said….

Mike: WOULD YOU WAKE UP PLEASE.

KB: Where are your clothes?

William: Not on me!

Looking at an old bathroom cabinet

Mom: Ugh, that looks awful!

KB: It just looks distressed. It’s vintage!

Mom: It’s making ME distressed.

I get several texts full of ?’s and @’s

Laura: Heh, that would be Marcus. Don’t know if that came through but it consisted mostly of recycling symbols and lightbulbs. Poor kid, it’s the closest thing he has to video games.

Laura: Vinnie saw a sign for “Stressed-out Superwoman Support Group.” I think we should go.

The bunny runs under the bed

William: Well, while you’re waiting for Fluffy to come out, I guess you could give me a hug, if you want.

Becca: THIS IS THE NICEST GROCERY STORE IVE EVER BEEN IN. IT SMELLS LIKE HEAVEN

Becca: My tea bags have nice inspiration quotes on them. Today mine says “every smile is an achievement” Im going to go and smile 100 times a day so ill be very successful

Becca: I just want you to know I love the word “applicable.” I’m gonna use it in everything.

KB: Everything, huh?

Becca: Well not everything… just when I talk.

Alex: She’s clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed. I almost said the sharpest pea in the pod.

Maggie: What kind of disorder does a person have if they’re not very likeable?

Rebecca: I passed my phone earlier and noticed that I had a text from Mommy, so I asked when she was even out today, and she said never, so I asked why she texted me, and she said “because I was in my room.”

Becca: I don't know how she doesn't fall off that thing she's sitting on when she's sleeping.

KB: Bird skills, man.

Becca: I need some.

Alex: Just dropped my phone into a pot of boiling water, but it’s alright.

Regarding Becca’s dieting success

KB: Dude… that’s fantastic. I can absolutely support that and help you out by drinking all the vodka myself.

Becca: Lol yes! This is a grade A symbiotic relationship

KB: Massive headache and I think I have a lung tumor.

Becca: Bahahah, this diagnosis is obviously so on point

Excuse me, on fleek.

Becca: Today was… just wow.

KB: Is that a good wow or a bad wow? I kind of think it was a bad wow…?

Becca: It’s like a middle wow

Luis and I are both in the hospital

KB: Trade??

Luis: Haha. I’ll think about it.

KB: There’s a finger puppet and a penguin picture involved.

Luis: I’ve seen that on Facebook. It’s very tempting.

Alex: My tummy feels like an imploding star

Becca: Ahhhhh!!!!!

KB: Dreams. Also good morning?

Becca: No. That’s my reaction to all ten year olds

KB: I thought it might be.

Becca: The earth is overpopulated. I’m probably going to talk to God today about their need for existence

KB: Let me know what God says about the existence of 10 year olds.

Becca: Oh, I will. Don’t you worry. I feel it’ll benefit Lauren also so I’ll probably just call a meeting to discuss my findings

Later

KB: What did God say about ten year olds?

Becca: Their existence is unnecessary but my spiritual gift is not to get rid of them so I need to shut my mouth.

KB: Hurting again today. Frustrated.

Becca: Chest?

KB: Back.

Becca: That’s no good. You warn that back we’ll be having a stern talk when it gets home

KB: It’s gonna be nervous all day now!

Becca: Good. It better be on its best behavior. I’m not one to be messed with

Rachael: Pat makes noises just like I do!

KB: Rachael, no one makes noises quite like you do.

Rachael: Pat comes close.

Pat: I come close to the noises you make? Wow. I need supervision.

Becca’s post-workout hair

Becca: I need someone to smell it to tell me how gross I smell Bahah

KB: Lol! I love you but I have limits.

Becca: lol it’s a simple hug and sniff

KB: Have you ever seen that poopurri commercial with the ginger in the blue dress sitting on the toilet?

Becca: Yeah?

KB: That's what I felt like just now.

Becca: PLEASE have my permission to put that in quotables.

I tell Rebecca I need fabric to cover my portfolio table

Maggie: Why would she need to cover it?

Rebecca: So it won’t be embarrassed!

Maggie: Why would it be embarrassed?

Rebecca:Wouldn’t you be embarrassed if you were naked at a portfolio show?

Maggie: Well, yes.

KB: Before you fall asleep I would like to release something that's been in the back if my mind for days. I'm not that concerned about it but I feel like if I don't say it out loud I may become so.

Becca: Okay, do you need to do it in person?

KB: Oh no, I was just gonna say it via text and use extra exclamation points and question marks. And maybe some capital letters if they come upon me suddenly.

Becca: I just put a shirt on for you. Waste.

Pat: I want someone to take over my email for about forty-seven days.

KB: Sounds awesome.

Joe: I think you meant "reads awesome"

KB: I read it out loud to myself to make sure I was being truthful.

Joe: This is why you have been a true adversary all these years

KB: But what if you WERE named Dr. Pookums?

William: *angry sounds*

KB: But what if you WERE? I'm just ASKING.

William: I'D QUIT!

William: *gently touches my face* Oh! Your cheeks are different than mine.

Following a conversation about eating with no hands, Patience begins eating her brownie with no hands

Daddy, sternly: Patience! Stop that!

Wondering stares from everyone

Daddy: That's Jesse’s piece.

Patience: What should I paint with my--

Anna: Butt.

KB: You have a booger hanging out of your nose.

Anna: Oh! I was looking for that.

Becca: My entire room smells like a leo fart. -_-

KB: Ha. Mine smells like freshly cut grass. :-P

Becca: If you were my enemy I would shove Leo in your room and shut the door and trap you in there with him so he made your room stink too. But, alas, you are my friend.

KB: Thank goodness. His farts could kill a moose.

Becca: Precisely. I keep him around for hunting.
