Oops from Em..."huh?"
Spending time a the library is somewhat of a norm for me these days, but when it's spent with a friend interesting things can happen. As Lance and I were working on our Visual Media homework together last week, Lance leaned over to me and asked me if I had heard about Lance Armstrong. I immediately I replied with a very questioning look and a "Huh?"
"Lance Armstrong," said Lance again
"I don't know who that is." I said
Lance looked at me in shock, "You don't know who Lance Armstrong is...?"
"Uhhh...the moon or something." I replied, trying to redeem myself.
"You mean Neil Armstrong?!" said Lance.
"Yeah...that."
Oops!

Mom got what?
"Oops from Em....Mom got what?"
We were all sitting around the table after dinner, having a normal family conversation, when dad decided it would be fun to try and remember what day all of us were born on. As we went around the table recalling all the days that we were born, we stopped at my youngest siblings Golden and Presley. I, being quite proud of my skills in remembering my siblings birthday, piped up and said, "It was a Monday."
"No, I think it was a Saturday." said my dad.
"No, Dad, I remember it was a Monday, because mom was suppose to get seduced that day."
"Mom was suppose to get what?" my dad asked.
"Seduced. Mom was getting seduced, but she ended up having the babies before that happened." I replied.
"Emma dear, I think you mean....induced."
Oh dear......Oops!

'Oops' from Em
And we're back with a new episode of "Oops from Em"
Hello world, it's me again, the one that tells the jokes, but doesn't get them. I was talking to a friend a while back and he shared a joke with me. Of course me being the person that I am, I didn't get it or know who the Dalia lama is, so what do I do? I go on and share it with my father.
"Dad, what did the Dalia lama say when he walked into the pizza shop?"
My dad replied, "What?"
"Make me a pizza with everything on it....." There was a long pause and my dad just looked at me. "Yeah, I didn't get it either. I don't understand why my friend thought it was so funny." I said.
"Are you sure that was the joke, Em?" my dad asked.
"Yeah, it was something like that, it just didn't make sense to me. I thought maybe you would get it, but now I don't feel as dumb cause you didn't get it either! Ah ha" I replied. Later that night I decided to ask my friend to recall the joke.
"What did the dalai lama say when he walked into the pizza shop? Make me one with everything."...and that's when me dad laughed. Oops!
Good rule of thumb; don't tell a joke if you don't get it.
