"Can I have my soul back now?"
--my manager, on finding out she'll probably be fired. (For the record, it's bull; she's being fired for sexual harassment, specifically for 'a detailed discussion of anal sex which made two employees uncomfortable'. I happened to be there for the incident in question, and here's what it was: my manager mentioned she was partying with a local band, in particular the lead singer. One of the allegedly uncomfortable employees said, "Ewww. He's into anal sex!" My manager shrugged and replied, "So am I." And that was it. The 'detailed discussion of anal sex', all of it, right there. Plus, it happened about 9 months ago, so...WTF? I'm going to miss my manager, if they push this through. She was about the only cool one in the whole store.)
Update: My boss quit. I'm somewhat in mourning, and probably will really start hating it when I have to train a new boss, but she's much happier. Says it's just like getting out of a bad relationship. So I'm happy for her, anyway. And since she's tending bar at the Brewery, it's not like I never get to see her.

Um...
"You said you'd die if we ever had to be apart, and I want you to keep your word."
(confused) "I never said that."
(beginning to sob) "God, you took everything else, can't I just have my drama moment?"
a girl and a guy fighting at the Dry Dock, Cortez, CO.

It's All About Crap
Bizarre
"If you forget about all the crap, it's still pretty cute."
"Yeah, 'bout as much as a dead cat."
My cousin and my mom talking about a nest of baby birds that was covered in their, well, crap. This cousin's sister, when she was 4 or 5, mentioned how cute a dead cat was lying there on the side of the road. We've never let her forget it. *G*

"Do I have a hole in my bottom?"
~A girl to her friend at the beach. Actually, I knew she was referring to the bottom of her pants, but still it sounded rather amusing
