Fish Tank Fiasco

For some reason today I've been in a really silly mood. Perhaps it started with the big fish tank fiasco.

So after every Bethel Wind Symphony concert the band goes to someones place and has a "throwdown" party with games, snacks, and such. Livia is the "Social Chairperson" for the band so we're having it here tonight. We were cleaning the living room and re-arranging some furniture. One of which was the "chair/endtable" that holds the fish tank. Though a series of mishaps while I was trying to clean the tank/lower the water level so I could move it I spill on the floor. In order to dry that up I decide to move said chair/table so the carpet can dry. As I'm sliding the table over Livia jokes that I'm probably going to spil more water by trying to move it and what do you know...in the process I disconnect the pump on the filter which was still plugged in. Water gushes onto the floor. I think in the end I spilled about a gallon of water all over the carpet. It was hilarious, but I think it was also one of those times when you had to be there.

After dinner my roomies and I return. I was in a silly mood and these quotes are a result.

Me: "I can't wait to wash clothes tomorrow. After two weeks all your favorite things start to run out. I love washing clothes, its like Christmas!" (Refering to how great it is to be folding laundry and find a shirt I forgot I even owned because it's been in the laundry so long).

Less than 2 minutes after this declaration I stumbled upon another hilarious moment.

Livia was putting out snacks for the Band Throwdown. Megan, who was in the middle of getting ready, walks by commenting...

Megan: "Oh, I'll have one of those, and I'd like a piece of that..."
Livia (to Megan): "If there are any cookies or kit-kat's let over they're yours."
Me (overhearing from the closet): "What are the rest of us...sliced ham?"
At this moment I realized something I just said didn't sound right.
Me: "Wait what's that phrase again? Oh yeah! Chopped Liver!"
