another mystery solved
I'd normally write something about the mildly delightful time Jessica and I spent in two of Columbus's finest MetroParks today, hiking and spotting the various forms of poison ivy and sweating, but I find myself compelled to write this down instead. Ever since I bought that secondhand boxing monkey, I've had a phrase in my head. Here is my horrible rendition of it: MMMOONNKKEEEYYY!
Um, yeah. So that kept running through my head, and until moments ago I couldn't place the source. It's from the first season of the BBC Office show, from a part or two where affable/cringeworthy loser boss David Brent is showing somebody around the office, points out a stuffed monkey, and apparently does a horrible impersonation of some comedian who hasn't caught on over on this side of the pond.
Well, hey, it matters to me.
