Legally Blonde am I
For the past couple of months, one of my advisors has hinted that I remind him of "Elle" from Legally Blonde. Not only him, but apparently his wife and daughter feel the same way too (case and point: I babysit daughter, we watch "Legally Blonde" b/c wife feels that this is reminiscent of me, and when at movie store cannot help but rent said movie). Today, in a meeting, I managed to say "permeate" (ok, so that's not a word, I know this NOW) a bunch of times while he stared at me blankly. Finally he asks, "What the hell does that mean? Do you mean PERMUTE?" which then I uh, realize that I have been blathering on about a non-existent word for the past five minutes. He looks at me and says, "Elle." Which I blankly look at him until I realize that he is referencing me to the Legally Blonde chick. Nice. So, I ask him point blank, "You think I'm a ditz?" Which sadly, he responds with, "well, she's smart underneath!" Which I staright up take as a, "YES."
My advisor thinks I'm a ditz. I'm not even sure how I'm supposed to read that.

Ok, it's not the word that I was looking for. I needed the verb for "permutation", which apparently is NOT "permeate." You know, now it sounds so wrong that I used "permeate."
Ok, I am a ditz.
