File Under: Information I Did Not Need
If you read Sweetney, you've already seen this, but I had to share, too.
All I could think of was my grandfather, a very waspy 80 year old, recovered alcoholic, seriously emotionally repressed guy who, when my mother mentioned that I might be getting a little chubby (yeah! i know), said to me and my mom and my soon to be husband, when everyone thought he was was just sitting there in a fog, "more cushion for the pushin'"
Things I need in life:
- The Red Sox
- Books
- Lobster
- Cheesecake
- Pedantry
- Internet access
- Dry shoes
Things I want in life:
- To lose a bunch of pounds
- To get more things done
- The complete 27 volume set of the Oxford English Dictionary
Things I can cross off my list of "What I wish for in my lifetime":
- The Red Sox winning the World Series.
Things at the top of my wish list:
- A cure for diabetes

It's kind of like finding out your grandparents still have SEX...
Inhibition is clearly the first thing to go...
BWAHA! Oh man, that's so something my grandma would have said on TV!!! I love how he leaned in to whisper, completely forgetting he's miked! LOL!!!
Oh, and that's good news, I like that treatment for eternal youth....will have to remember that one....
Best. Whisper. Ever.
(Will never sleep again, though.)
Thank God! I won't go blind. LOL
That was awesome and wrong all at the same time.
