Demented and sad, but social.
The boss was giving shift report. I don't even remember what he was talking about, but the story required a hand gesture ... He cupped his hands together, and moved them away from his body in kind of an exaggerated bouncing motion.

I immediately said, "Put Edwina back in bowl" in a very faux-Indian (ohm Indian, not woo-woo Indian) accent.

The boss' response? "That's exactly what I was trying to say."

Somehow, it was in context. Can't for the life of me remember how. I'm pretty sure that noone's soul was displaced. Or maybe that was what the patient thought was going on ... or. I dunno. But it was really darn funny.

Finally, another human being who gets this. I've done this one a bunch of times and people just look at me like, "What bowl? And why does your voice sound like Microsoft's tech support?"

We must be the only Lily Tomlin/Steven Martin fans.
