If you were a fly on the wall…
Okay, a little backstory – Bekah and I met up this weekend. We hit the rainy beach at around 2 p.m. on Friday and by 8 (maybe earlier?) was passed smooth out. 12 Irish Car Bombs will do that to you. (But you get a free t-shirt after 20! I have a little card that never expires and the bartender marks it whenever you have one. I’ll go back someday to polish off those other 8.)
If I can remember the backstory to the little conversation snippets, I’ll write them in bold. (my words are in italics)
You would really rather eat your own eyeball than feel guilt again?
Yes.
You obviously have too much guilt in your life.
I’m taking care of shit.
***
I’m going to boil you and eat you alive before the tsunami kills us all.
I never go to the beach. The one time I make plans to it storms like a motherfucker. I told Bekah that it would be our luck that a tsunami was going to hit too. I was going to eat her to save her the horror of drowning.
***See and you can’t die with your shirt all fucked up so leave that shit on backwards and live tonight.
Bekah got a stomach bug and realized after a bathroom run that her shirt was on backwards. I decided that you don’t get to die if your clothes aren’t on right. I didn’t want her to fix her shirt because then she might die.***
But that’d cost a dollar to get there.
You wouldn’t pay a dollar to give her a proper burial at sea?
I’m not sure that tossing her dead body into the waves is a proper burial at sea.
Oh.
A discussion after we thought a hedgehog was dead. Even though it wasn’t, we played the “what if she had died” game.***
So what? You’ll still be alive. Shit washes, death doesn’t.
I say it’s better to shit yourself while you’re sick than to flat die from it.
You have to be a special kind of creature to spend more than 15 minutes with me.
