My Comedy Moment Moment

Soooo… this little spot has been airing on IFC the past month. I don’t have IFC so I’m just now seeing it. The concept is super cute, but I’m a little bummed they “mis-captioned” me a couple times — mainly because one of the errors resulted in a grammatical mistake and I’m a grammar snob.

Them: these service
What I really said: each service

Them: to take the toilet
What I really said: to snake the toilet

Yes, I really did print the corrections. Hush. My takeaway from this is that maybe I should learn to speak more slowly… But I’m way happy to have the spot on air! Yay. ;)

From the Blog to the Stage – Haggling with the plumber

Last Tuesday I had to call a plumber out to the house to help unclog my toilet. Once he left I posted the following Facebook status update:

My dad is totally my haggling hero ;) And I knew it’d make him proud to know I was resourceful in talking the plumber down… When I told him about it, he howled and insisted I turn it into a bit.  Which I did this weekend. Here’s how it turned out… Funny because it’s true. ;)
