I See Salt...

I walked up to a couple of ladies that were eating at the Little Brick House for the first time and asked them how everything was.  One gal looks at me and asks if I've ever seen the movie What About Bob?  Well of course I have.  She then tells me that she said to her friend "Is this hand chucked?"  A line from Bob at the dinner table at the Marvin's.  I laughed and then we both started doing the "mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm" line.  It was pretty fantastic and I had a good laugh.  After a while when they were leaving I said "I see salt, is there a salt substitute?"  She started to laugh pretty good and then came back with another quote: "Where are you Anna?"   Oh, it was rich. 

In the end it has given me an idea for my Halloween costume.  I am thinking pretty seriously about going as Bob Wiley - complete with a gold fish in a jar hanging around my neck.  "He's a city fish, but he's lovin it up here."   Of course with the Skaryoke party it will give me the perfect lead in for a little Neil Diamond -  "there are two types of people in this world, those who like Neil Diamond and those who don't.  My ex-wife loves him."  Should be a lot of fun.  I am going to have to study up on some of his lines.  Not sure how many of the turret's lines I should use.  There are some pretty choice ones. 

In other news, the weather has turned a bit up here this week.  We are experiencing colder temps and we've got some serious rain falling tonight.  There is a winter storm warning in effect until noon tomorrow.  I don't think it will get cold enough for snow tonight.  At least not down in the valley.  The weather report says low 40's.  My goodness, that warm summer just suddenly disappeared.  I am not ready to give up on wearing my shorts and may have to simply go shorts all year.  Sounds like a good game but I'm not so sure I can play it. 

Sure do love the kiddos.  The boys and I had a lot of fun with some reading tonight and Natty went to Zumba with her grandma.  They are good kids and I am blessed to have them.
