Jen R: waiting like when we're waiting for your coffee in the morning, see what i'm getting at?
we're waiting by my Keurig. i push the button.
me: here it is.
Xoxo: no that's the cup of coffee from YESTER morning. see it takes ONE WHOLE DAY for the coffee to brew to get the beans to taste just right. the Aztecs invented coffee you know.
me: shit i'm out of water. where's my water cup?
Jen: use this strange cup.
Xoxo: vieja, that's a tiny glass fishbowl.
me: as long as it works, right? even if my pet fish is swimming around in this cup...
Jen: whoa, check out your cats, they're calm around your fish now.
Xoxo: i have a calming effect on cats.

Leslie Sbrocco: omg you're HERE?!!!
Monica Pro: yeah. crouching like a motherfucker to put away these Teddy Grahams. did you get a good gander at my butt?
Leslie: i honestly thought i'd never see you again. i've been crying on the inside.
Monica: Safeway has a way of crushing your dreams.........that's it. Safeway has a habit of messing with your mind. btw.........don't try the Safeway meatloaf...
Leslie: i eat one sugar donut from Safeway a day, right? so why don't i gain weight? why don't i balloon out and explode?
Monica: because you walk, silly. if you walk TO Safeway you can eat a donut a day and not gain an ounce. empty calories are still calories.

Robin: no God will save you, Blood, because i'm an atheist.
Terra: Slade, you're about to experience the most fucked-up Legends of the Hidden Temple Temple Game ever!!!

Jen: you scared the living daylights out of me, woman!!!
Blond Rambo: Jackie scares me unless i have my nightlight on. she only talks to me when all the lights are off.
me: the sprinklers make me feel inspired. i want to take a shower in your sprinkler water like as if I just had sex.
Jen: i keep telling him to bathe. to wash himself so he doesn't have to watch himself.
Jackie: yeah he needs it, he's a filthy motherfucker.

It's a Living.
agent: i'm taking you to the top.

Xoxo: the colors of the United States Southwest, the colors of Arizona...
Jen: that is depressing. aren't you a harbinger of the underworld?
me: that dark passageway no one wants to take?
