Everything's More Fun In Pigtails!

2003-06-27 || The Buffoon's Friday Five

[smirk] Oh man, life just isn’t good if you can’t laugh at yourself, right? [snigger] I’m such a buffoon, but it’s fun. I was just sitting at my desk, laughing by myself for five minutes straight, and one of my coworkers walked in and gave me the strangest look. She’s one of the few here who doesn’t really know that I’m weird. I think she does now that she found me alone and cackling at my desk. I couldn’t help it – I had just made an ass out of myself. Not that that’s anything new, but it’s still funny. Let me backtrack to what I was laughing about – this week has been a relatively good Pseudo-Gavin week. We're on Hello Terms now. I love that. I was on break Wednesday, and saw him heading into the office so I went outside to pass him on the walk. He smiled when he saw me coming, so I said hello and he let out a hearty, “How ya doin’?” All I could muster up was a stammered, “Good,” as I walked away, trying not to melt. Ah, good looking guys, ain’t nothing like it. Fake boyfriends like Pseudo-Gavin are even better, because you can just look and flirt and laugh, not caring. I just got over a bad breakup, I don’t want another boyfriend right now. I want a fake one. They’re more fun! You can act like a fool and giggle like a schoolgirl because you’re ridiculous and you don’t care. Yay! Today I saw him coming in, so I stood right in front of the window facing the walkway, and he looked up and just stared at me. I smiled and waved, and he did the same. He laughed, too. That prompted my five-minute fit of spontaneous laughter that scared my coworker. I’ve been told not to wave my Smashing Hulk at the window when he comes by, that that might “scare” him. Eh, I don’t know, it’s possible he’s a warlock. There’s a ‘Resident’ sticker on his car for Salem, Massachusetts. Maybe he’s a wizard instead. Should I start calling him Harry Potter? Nah, he looks too much like Gavin. Mmmm. Okay, I need to stop blabbing, because it is Friday, and that means it’s time for the Friday Five:

1. How are you planning to spend the summer [winter]?
I’m so boring. I live on the coast, yet haven’t been to the beach since 1988. I don’t like the whole bathing-suit-in-public thing. Hopefully catch some time by the pool, play some whiffleball, and just generally be happy and have fun.

2. What was your first summer job?
I worked the snack bar at a summer theater. It was a fun job. We didn’t have to do much, could eat anything we wanted, and then could stay for the shows for free. We’d be done working by the time the main act came on, but it was a lot of old-timers coming to perform. I mainly stayed for the comedians. (Seinfeld!) I also got to weasel my way backstage to meet Trisha Yearwood and bow down at the feet of Shari Lewis.

3. If you could go anywhere this summer [winter], where would you go?
Oh man, I have no idea. I haven’t been to an amusement park in years and years, so maybe I’d go to Six Flags.

4. What was your worst vacation ever?
The first time I went to Vegas I ended up having a really bad reaction to medication I was taking. I was there for one day and went home the next morning.

5. What was your best vacation ever?
Probably a tie between this year’s Vegas trip and Disney with Lucy in 1993.

Boy, I was kinda boring with those answers. Sorry! I’m not a big vacation person. I don’t travel well. But hey, it’s Friday, and time for the weekend. I’m heading to the new Charlie’s Angels tomorrow night. Crispin Glover!!! I love the fact that he doesn’t speak. Kick ass. I can’t wait. I hope he doesn’t speak again – that would ruin it for me. What an easy job that must be. You don’t have to learn any lines – you just show up, look creepy, and get paid. Word! Creepy Rules.
