Damn, Gina

We are watching Gladiator.

Me: If someone killed me and our future children, would you become a gladiator?
[Long pause]
Him: If someone killed you and our future children, and I passed out from the grief, and woke up to find I'd been kidnapped and sent to some sort of gladiator boot camp... yes, I guess I would become a gladiator.
Me: Well, you don't have to.
Him: Okay.
Me: I'd just want you to be happy.
Him: That's sweet.
Me: While I'm dead and all. With our kids.
Him: Our kids who don't exist yet.
[Silence]
Him (hand pat): Don't worry; I'd avenge you.

I can’t tell you how hard I’m not clicking on that one.

A valid question, I think you’ll agree.

things that are good:

an attempt to make myself less crabby.

yesterday on our dinner break when we weren’t hungry (due to craft services snacks), we took a chilly walk uptown for awesome cookies.

A friend who is thinking of collecting a few people to buy land upstate to share asked me if I wanted in. Which I’m not sure I do but it is a pretty high compliment I think, to be included.

my boss hates all the same people I do.

It is sunny outside. It is sunny and chilly and the leaves are still falling and being crunchy on the ground.

this malt-whiskey-marmalade, which was a gift hauled across an ocean, is awesome.

my dad thinks what I’m working on this week is really cool.

josh always takes out the mice I kill.

Thanksgiving is coming and I love thanksgiving.

I just realized I don’t have to leave for work for 2 hrs so I’m going for a walk.

Your boss hating the same people you do sounds like a giant coup to me.

On the train I was overjoyed to overhear a conversation between three teenage boys (maybe thirteen, fourteen?) in school uniform with uniformly terrible hair.

Boy 1: Did youse do the assignment?

Boy 2: Yeah

Boy 1: Did youse do first or third person?

Boy3: Did anyone do second?

Boy1: No one does second. (points to Boy 2) So what did you do?

Boy 2: First. Wait. No. Third. Wait. What’s the difference again?

Boy 1: First is me talking to you, second is you talking to me (points to Boy 3) third is him just talking and he never fuckin’ shuts up.

In the 2009 Cringe Contributors vs College Humor Employees Halloween Costume Contest, Marc Balgavy’s Guy Fieri costume defeated Streeter Seidel’s Guy Fieri costume.

Hands down! Always go with the Balgavy.
