And the "Bemily Award" goes to...
For those of you who are fans of "The Office" (and for those of you who aren't, what's the matter with you??), you know all about the "Dundee" awards. Michael Scott (played by Steve Carell) is the manager of a paper company office and he thinks that he's the best boss in the world. In reality, he really sucks. He does likes to make things spicy around the office and therefore he came up with the Dundee awards. (The office that they work in is called Dunder Mifflin, hence Dundee.) Every year he makes up specific awards for people, such as "Hottest One in the Office" or "Spicy Curry" (to the girl from India) or the "Don't Go In There After Kevin" referring to the time he went into the bathroom after Kevin and it was really stinky. Hilarious! He makes a big night of it and all of the employees hate going because he is so ridiculous about it. So anyway, my roommate Emily and I give each other Dundee awards for doing stupid things. Sometimes we even give ourselves dundee awards, like the time my car door slammed on my face and bruised my cheek. I gave myself a Dundee award for being the most Special Ed. Because we do this so often, I've decided that Emily and I should have our own awards, so I came up with the "Bemily" awards (it sounded better than "Embecca"). I'm hereby giving Emily the first ever Bemily award for being the "Funny and Bitter Conspirator." Let me explain. I went to Disneyland this last friday for ONE day. I come home from being gone for ONE day and I notice something weird on my bathroom counter. I walk cautiously in and smell the sweet scent of strawberries. I looked closely at the counter and saw this blubbery, red rectangle. I looked closer and realized that she had put my razor in jello!!!!! (Reference: The Office, episode one, season one.) I died laughing and then texted her. Her response? "Yeah, you better think twice about going to Disneyland without me." She, who just went to Hawaii for a week and will soon be going to Baltimore and New York City, said this. Okay, so you get the first Bemily award, but beware. I'll get you my pretty!!

Bring it on girlfriend!! But I truly feeled honored to get the first ever Bemily Award. I first would like to thank my roommate Becca for coming up with the award in the first place and God who gave me such a great sense of humor and highly intelligent mind to be able to come up with stuff like that and lastly I would like to thank strawberry-banana JELLO for making this possible and for making Becca's bathroom smell so sweet.
You guys are hilarious :) I found your blog through Jake & Jess Freshour's...and it makes me laugh! It reminds me of you guys being crazy all those years ago at Oxford. Glad to see you're doing well. :)

Did you eat the jello to get the razor out?
Becca,
You and Em are so funny. I can relate to injurying myself, just the other day I shut my own hand in my front door. I still have a buise, how did I manage that?
