Awkward In Pink ♥: August 2009

Today at dinner, we had corn on the cob. Nobody had gotten the "I can't believe it's not butter" out. My brother looked around the table and said, "I can't believe it's not here" with a completely straight face. I have never laughed so hard in my life. MLIA

Today, I saw a drunk guy claim that he was George Washington. When asked for two forms of ID, he pulled out a dollar and a quarter. He wins. MILA

Today in class my teacher was telling us how we could look at things under the microscope. His words were, "just stick it in there and play around with it."

Today I wanted to buy a Where's Waldo book. I couldn't find it anywhere in the bookstore. Well played Waldo, well played. MLIA.

Today, I was dragged to a college info session that I didn't want to go to. When they asked for questions, I raised my hand and said, "What does your school do to protect against the constant threat of dementors?" The lady responded, "All our professors are trained in the art of patronuses so there is nothing to worry about." I think I'll reconsider this school. MLIA

Today my brother brought his new girlfriend home. He told us to be nice because he wanted to impress her. I was playing Zelda in the living room in my pajamas when they showed up. I was yelling at the screen during a Boss fight. My brother got mad but his girlfriend sat down next to me and told me the trick to beating it. I told my brother to marry her. MLIA

Today I went through MacDonald's Drive through in a cardboard box with my friend. The lady said that we needed some wheels to order. We came back 10 minutes later sitting in a trolley with the box over our head. She gave us super size for our efforts. MLIA.

Today, I was late for my curfew. Instead of a grounding, I found a Halmark card where you can record your own voice on my bed. When I opened it, it was my dad screaming. I was punished by a Howler. I need to be late more often. MLIA

Today, I was riding the train home when it stopped and the lights went out. The kid next to me yelled, "DEMENTORS DEMENTORS!" A few moments later, the train started again. Everyone was staring at him, but he calmly shrugged and said, "False alarm." I wish I was as cool as that kid. MLIA.

Today, when I got to work, I jumped out of my elevator like a secret agent and pointed my fake gun right at my boss. He instantly dove sideways behind a desk and started firing back. This went on for 5 minutes. I love my job. MLIA

Yesterday I intentionally wore lime green jeans to school because our dress code said no “blue” jeans.

Today, when a telemarketer called I told him I was in the middle of making a Polyjuice Potion and couldn't talk because it is a very time-sensitive process.

Our city is in good hands. MLIA

Today, it was dress as your favorite story book character day. I dressed as Harry Potter, and I saw a random kid that ive never even seen before dressed as Ron.

Today on the train the guy across from me had his fly undone. His Superman boxers were very much on display. When I got up for my stop I said 'Seeya, Superman'. I've never seen someone look more confused, but I know he'll figure it out later. MLIA.
