As I was saying...what was I saying?

This is the conversation I was having earlier today with a friend:

"So I told what's-his-name he couldn't leave those things lying there on the thing or the dog would...um..."

What I meant to say was, "I told Larry he couldn't leave his school papers lying there on the hearth or JoJo would chew on them, and I didn't think anyone would buy the old 'the dog ate my homework' excuse."

Ba-dum-pah.

I'm starting to have to work my thoughts in Mad Libs: So I told (person's name) he couldn't leave (noun) (verb -ing) on the (noun)...(Insert punch line.) (Canned laughter.)

Pretty soon, I'll be hearing a soundtrack behind every event in my life. And I won't even be able to remember the words so I can sing along!
