So certain people who shall remain nameless have been trying to get me to blog more often. I've been resisting for a number of reasons:
- I mostly post boring things about my day and the same people who would read it already know it. And would you really enjoy reading something you've already experienced once, just from another viewpoint? that's hardly high literature, or interesting, or worth your time, it is? Oh, wait, some of you would...
- I haven't been doing anything interesting lately. I don't think I've drawn anything new since my icon; I'm just working. And that's what I'd write about. Boring, right?
- They normally say this while laughing, so I'm not sure how serious they are. ?
Well, here I am, blagging.
So yesterday at work I'm trundling along doing my thing until this one stayover room at half-twelve. I knock on the door--it's certainly late enough--and this huge giant of a black man, at least six foot three, answers the door.
Sans pants.
I'm very very proud that I managed to plaster on a smile and say "Do you require any fresh towels?" with perfect waitstaff politeness. A flawless recovery! And it only took, oh, five seconds or so!
The best part is that he came out of his room later (fully dressed) and started chatting. "What's there to do in this town? I'm stuck here for a few days," he says, as nonchalantly as if a young girl half his size did not just see him half-naked. Yes, well, kudos to you for recovery points, too.
On that note, what is there to do? I don't know, I'm not a tourist. I suggested the casinos, shopping downtown, and also that if it weren't raining he could choose the popular recreation of the bay ("Is that....it that like, the beach?" he asked) or golf. Dear God. And while I'm desperately trying to come up with tourist-y things to do my brain keeps piping, Why did you answer the door without pants on?!
And then in one of my checkouts I found one of those Indiana Jones Burger King Scratch-and-Win things for a free Whopper Jr. It was a great day.

I role play.
What does this mean?
I read, time and time again, the same events from different perspectives.
I live on it. =)
And besides. I like seeing life from your perspective too. It tends to be a bit funnier than my own.
I don't think I've drawn anything new since my icon;
You should show us Felix. Because that's new.
They normally say this while laughing, so I'm not sure how serious they are
You have no idea how much squee I had when I saw your icon in my flist.
Well, here I am, blagging.
I read that with a southern accent?
And LOFUCKINGL about the man without pants. I'm so glad that was you and not me. As for what to do in the area, when people ask me that I'm just like, um. Bowling? Movies? Hahaha. You offered more than I could.
SMOOCH.

Date: 2008-06-13 12:33 am (UTC)But then again, maybe why I think that is why I suck at roleplaying. Maybe that's what my post will be. Or I'll write a long, convoluted dream that has no bearing on anything...
PS. I don't know how to post Felix to LJ.
PSS. ♥ You haven't eaten Lucky and Emo have you??

Date: 2008-06-14 07:59 pm (UTC)Lulz. I have no interest in reading Twilight or its follow-ups from anyone's perspective...unless it's re-written by an author who's works I can actually make it through without straining. But then, it would probably just be a hilarious parody on how horribly cliche all the characters are.

But yea, the point is that you're hilarious even when you're not trying to be, so please just keep blogging because you don't know how much happy the rest of us get out of it.
