At my brother David's request, I registered to take the Jeopardy! qualification test online. So, I logged in on Test Day and guess what I saw. "I'm sorry. You are too late
to take the test." Huh?So, I went back and read the test rules. Turns out, it is high school standardized test style. You know, two #2 pencils and "You may now break the seal on your test. You will have 45 minutes to complete this section of the test." Yeah. Apparently, you have to log in no more than 30 minutes before the test begins but no later than straight-up 8 pm. I took the test the next day during the Pacific time slot. Why I did that I don't know. Because if you can't read the directions for the qualifying test, do you know what you should be doing? "What is 'Not taking the Jeopardy! test?'"
#2
I just told the two things that make me feel dumb to my sister-in-law tonight, and I forgot what #2 was when I was telling her. And now I have forgotten #2 again. That means #2 becomes #3 because this is making me feel dumb. (Although I am seriously laughing at saying #2 over and over.)
#3
Oh, yeah. Formerly known as #2, #3 is...
Crap.
Jess - do you remember the other thing that made me feel so dumb? Besides this?
Oh wait! I remember!!! #3 is not finishing the self-help book for book club tomorrow. People who need self-help and can't read the book don't need self-help! They need other-people-help. Self just fell down on the job (naturally).

I bet all y'all didn't finish y'all's self-help books either and I just ripped on y'all. Ha! That is funny!

I didn't even pick out a self-help book to read! What does that say about me?
I can not stop laughing Jen. I think you are the funniest person I know. You need to take it on the road. Love you.
PS Thank you for the fast. I really really really appreciate it. You are both thoughtful and funny.
Laura, it probably means you don't need help. Or you won't help yourself. Or you hate the genre. I pick #3.
Jen- you are rediculous! I seriously felt like you were talking to me all over again from last nights conversation. You forgot about the roast..that was a big one!
ps- hows your eye Ivy??
Ahh! The roast! How could I forget. The eye, sadly, is washed down the drain. But I'm sure we'll see more of Ivy in the future ;)
If you a dummie there's no hope for me! Do you spell dummy like my first or second spelling?
See what I mean?!!
You're too good for Jeopardy anyway. You would just leave Alex in your hilarious dust. The man is seriously incapable of improvising any kind of humor.
So, in lieu of your national Jeopardy debut, I'm still expecting to see some of your stand up material at GNO!!
I rocked that test!
i don't see how any of that was dumb. maybe that makes me dumb. when my sister was younger she used to yell at herself and say "I'm just so dumb, d-u-m, dumb." pointless story but it makes me laugh!
