Sometime You Just Say Dumb Things

I have a tendancy to say really dumb things when I either don't know how to respond to something or when I try to say something very slick. Today, I was getting my morning coffee and I was suprised to find out they remembered how I take it. "Black, right?" the woman at the register said, to which I responded, "As the night." . . . AS THE NIGHT????? Who says that? How about, "Yes." That would have worked. She gave a fake-half chuckle and handed me my coffee. Perhaps, because I was trying to regroup after my horrid respnse, I took the coffee and said, "Cool, check you later." Oh, just shoot me.
