Of the random

1. Peter Boyle died. *is sad* I will miss you Clyde Bruckman.

2. Jeff Gordon is breeding. (We will now slay the plot bunny that just tried to convince me to write Supernatural fic with a half demon child in which it's revealed to be Jeff Gordon's offspring.)

3. My aunt in Connecticut slashes Tony Stewart and Denny Hamlin. Without knowing what slash is. She just has thought for years that Tony's gay (I really am trying to figure out why "single man" equals "gay") and decided that Denny was his "special friend". *headdesk* Honestly? Never saw that one coming. Badum ching.

4. A coworker sent in his lunch request for next week and asked for "Buttermilk Rack" dressing. My immediate question? "What woman was sitting across from you when you were writing this email? Was it R? Because yes, pregnant boobs do make the mind stray."

5. Ward Burton has been officially signed by Morgan McClure. Yay!!!!! And they're taking orders for merchandise before they even have any. *snerk*

4. Hey, I's an English major. Numbers are not my strong point.

And WAHD! is always exciting.

Just wait till Jerry makes his comeback. I'll be responding to "3" with "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious".

2. *pets bunny* *calls SPCTPB*

[maveness.livejournal.com]

NASCAR.com and Jayski have it, although I think the official word came down via Jeff's website.

1. *nods* That's exactly what I was thinking.
2. Eeep.
3. LOLOLOLOL!

1. It's funny, I wrote my mom to say "The dad from Everybody Loves Raymond" died. Other folks it's "Young Frankenstein". And then there's those of us that think Clyde Bruckman.

2. There should be a freezing in hell soon.

3. *g*

4. Buttermilk Rack has been officially blamed on the coworker who has been talking about her breastfeeding class she took last night. *g*

5. WAHD!!!

1. My reaction was "The dad from 'While You Were Sleeping'?"

I have to be obscure.

Oooohhh, you're right! See, when I first saw him on X-Files, I thought "THAT GUY". Cause he was in things I couldn't remember what. Seeing While You Were SLeeping again years later reminded me.

May have to have a Peter Boyle marathon this weekend.

Oh, YEAH!! Hmm, might need to watch that movie again. :)

2. Jeff Gordon is breeding. -- She's... she's really pregnant? Oh my. Oh... my... Ingrid is gorgeous but I'm just not picturing a pretty combination of the two... Let's hope it takes after mommy.


Also? I laughed so hard. "Special friend." Greatest way to get around saying "boyfriend" EVER.

I'm hoping for the kid's sake that it gets her height. And lack of prehensile lip. *g*

What's funnier is what she followed the "Tony's special friend" bit with. "They hang around together too much and I just figured they had their thing going on on the side." Keep in mind, my aunt is my uncle's second wife and is much younger (but not in a bad way). So we're not talking elderly aunt. She's about 40 or 43...somewhere in there.

I know it's totally no big deal any more, but m'thinking maybe that's the reason for the sorta-rushed marriage? Married Nov. 7, due early July...that's eight months--she was already pregnant when they got married.

And Clyde Bruckman! NO! :(

But yay for Wahd! :)

Bubbles and I were talking last night, and it hit me...they're old enough (37 and 34) and have been in a relationship long enough that I'm betting they had already decided to get pregnant before the marriage happened. I'm not sure if she knew (although once I realized that they married Nov. 7 and yesterday was Dec. 13 and who announces a pregnancy for a 37-year-old if she's less than 3 months along?), but I bet you they were trying. Hence the getting married so quickly - they knew at least that the chances were high of her being pregnant.

*nods*

I bet you're right about that. And, really, I don't know anyone who announces a pregnancy before they're at least three months along--I sure didn't. But I think they were only engaged for like a month (at least officially). My guess is maybe they were planning the whole thing and it all just happened a little sooner than they'd figured it might...hence...well, I don't want to call it a quickie marriage, because that's got a connotation I don't think is quite right for this situation. Honestly, there's no shame (or at least not as much) in having children out of wedlock anymore, and I can't see that it would've been viewed as any sort of scandal or anything. But maybe they just figured they were going to anyway, and so they could avoid all the inevitable questions of will they or won't they? and when will they? and all that.
