Nap time

Nap Time I - Sweet Dreams... by flick user epicture's (more off than on)

Brett: For some reason, I'm not very good at taking a nap.  Even if I'm tired, I can't usually fall asleep in the middle of the day.

Lori: Oh, man.  I could sleep like a block of wood right in the middle of the day... but if I nap I can never sleep well that evening.

Brett: Oh, Brett (who is speaking in the third person for the sake of using his word) didn't think of that implication.  Maybe he should be glad he can't nap.

Lori: I liked that third person part.  Well played.

Movie recommendations

Thriller 17 by flicker user Michael Studt

Brett: Do you like gory movies?

Lori: Oh, goodness no.  I take no joy in scary murdery flicks at all.  Yuck.

Brett: Agreed.  I wouldn't pay a single quid to see a movie like that.

Lori: I actually do like a few of the psychological thrillers though.  Frailty, for instance - super good.  Have you seen it?

Brett: I have not.  But I also like some thrillers, even if they get a little bloody.  Like Identity.  Have you seen it?  If not, you should treat yourself and check it out.

Lori: I haven't.  But I love seeing new things, so I'll have to try to find it.

Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies?

Apologies to our loyal readers who wondered where we were last week.  Brett was on vacation, and since we did not have enough conversations backlogged to make it through the week, the blog took an unplanned vacation as well.  But to welcome you back, we've got a nice, lengthy WWC instant classic.  Enjoy!

Brett: What's your favorite Michael Bay movie?

Lori: I had to look him up to pick a movie, and he has less than I expected.  I'm gonna go with Armageddon.  I like Bruce Willis.

Brett: Yeah, I don't think I'd swap that out for any of his other movies.  Although I prefer Independence Day to Armageddon, and for some reason they're always associated in my mind.

Lori: Independence Day?  I have to admit, I had not seen that coming from you.

Brett: I'm hard to predict.  Don't try to get inside my brain.  You might get lost in there; it's like a maze.

Lori: Is it at least organized from new info to old in there?

Brett: It's just organized enough to keep me sane.

Lori: I hope I didn't cause you any undue worries in asking about the organization...

Brett: Well, I was up until four AM thinking about it, but that's okay.  Who needs sleep?

Lori: Hello... Did you say you stayed up til four?!?  Geez.  I... I'm sorry!

Brett: I did say that.  And I would never lie to you, right?

Lori: I'm sure you wouldn't.

The Award

Brett couldn't find a photo of the moment he won this award, but this is the award he was thinking of.  Don't know what it is?  That's a story for another blog post.

Lori: Do you have any photos of a moment that you may have held a title or won an award for a costume or something like that?

Brett: Hmm... I have one in mind, but I need to check if I actually have the photo.  I wouldn't want to soil my reputation by saying I do if I don't.

Things Maria didn't teach

Dorm Food by flickr user tvindy

Lori: When you were in college did you live in a dorm?

Brett: For two years I did.  Let me tell you... Dorm cafeteria food?  Yum.

Lori: I kind of feel like you're messing with me.

Brett: I was.  To apologize, I'll write you a song that includes di, a tone in the ascending chromatic scale between do and re.

Don't miss the boat

Now that Lori has seen it, everyone else might as well share in the fun.

Brett: Have you ever seen the picture of me wearing a unicorn horn?

Lori: No!  Please find it and share.  I'd love to see that!

Brett: I would never hide such a masterpiece from you.

Lori: Having now seen it, I love it.  Glorious.

Brett: You know me: the horn was there, of course I toyed around with it.
