More like Falling with Style

Recently I've received multiple cases of smack from various people dealing with my great gift and ability to quote movies. These people, who shall not be named, seem to believe that I cannot carry on a full conversation without inserting some sort of movie line. I concede that I must agree with them. However, many things I say repeatedly aren't from movies at all. I just say them so much that they could be from a movie because people like them. For example, when I say "Hook that motha up!" this is not from a movie, just a small piece of heaven that I integrated into my daily vocabulary. Other times, yes, I do admit that I go slightly overboard in my use of movie quotes and phrases. This enlightened discovery has led me to undergo intense treatment and therapy for my problem. This treatment method involved abstaining from the quoting of movies for a whole day. Monday, a date which will live in infancy because of course I never was able to fully satisfy the demands of my treatment method, was to be the day where I would put my quoting abilities aside and talk like a normal person. That lasted until approximately 1:00 pm, at which time my track record was ruined due to a discussion concerning tortillas and salads. Nacho Libre. Gets me every time. But from those brief hours in which my quoting capabilities were no longer employed, I did realize that I do have a problem. What is the solution, you may ask? Live more in the now and not in the movies.

Today I'm wearing yellow shoes. Life is complete.
