Listening to Coffee While Drinking Jazz

06 Jul 2006

Don’t you love those slips of the tongue? They always seem to strike at an appropriate time and add that extra dose of humor to a situation – take today for example. I was en route to work this morning (my daily 45 minute commute), sipping on a cup of Mocha Nut Coffee and listening to a selection of Thelonious Monk jazz (I bet you didn’t know I was that refined). Suddenly, I thought to myself (yes, I am capable of thought) “strange … I’m listening to coffee and while drinking jazz… this isn’t normal for me.” That little slip put a grin on my face for a good three miles of GA Highway 219. So I challenge you to look out for the little slips in life – the next time you listen to your coffee while drinking your jazz, it might just be a good time to take a break from that solemn stare and crack a smile. After all, laughter is good for the soul.

Update: On further reflection, the aforementioned slips might not present themselves at socially appropriate times, but still provide great humor (and possible embarrassment). Remember the last time you said “Ruddfuckers” instead of “Fuddruckers?”
