It's the Freakin' Weekend 2004-04-12::2:35 a.m. Hey Boo! Happy Easter Everyone! What did you do this Easter, Tina? Well, let me fill you all in. My Easter started when I woke up at 11:30 this morning. After enjoying a good night's sleep, I lazed around the apartment until 2:30, at which point I headed over to my mom's for Easter dinner. What does an atheist's Easter celebration include? Dove chocolate and my mom's famous Cheesy Potatoes. After thoroughly stuffing myself, it was off to work, not at my store, but at another nearby location with another girl from my store, Andrea. We worked our asses off tonight. What's wrong with people? It's Easter, why are you out renting movies? Oh, it's because all there is is crap on the TV, and your kids are on Spring Break for the next week, I get it, by the way, did you know movie rentals are three for $10.99 this weekend, and would you like to pre-order Lord of the Rings? After work, against my better judgement, I went out with Andrea and her friends, Ken and Josh, to play pool. If you've been reading this regularly, you'll remember from previous anecdotes that pool is not my sport. Why did I even go? I am awful at pool, I am hella shy, Andrea and I are as different as night and day, etc. Good question. I guess I just went to feel like I had some semblance of a life. Really, all I do now is work, school, and sleep. Pretty pathetic. So, when Andrea asked me to join them, at first I was hesitant, (afterall, I have accomplished none of my goals for this weekend, namely, cleaning and doing homework), but finally I gave in, even though I had no idea where we were going, (I still don't know exactly where we ended up), and I generally am awkward around new people. Although I didn't make a complete ass out of myself, I still felt a little out of place, (like when everyone in the pool hall participated in a choreographed dance to some song I had never heard, that apparently is on the radio and MTV), or when Andrea's friend Ken said I looked "too innocent" to be a drinker. True, all it takes is about two beers and I am three sheets to the wind, but yes, even though I look like a 55 year old virgin, dyke, librarian who still lives in the home she grew up in, I have tasted alcohol, thank you. I don't think he was trying to offend me, and really, I wasn't offended- if I saw me in a bar, I would probably do a double-take myself. Let's just say even though both gentlemen said it was nice to meet me, and that we should all hang out again sometime, I doubt it will ever happen. They were really nice and funny, and I am glad I went, I just don't think we hit it off. Oh well, "that's the story of my life." |
