The realization that I am going to be twenty-eight years old in less than a week finally hit me while I was talking with John on AIM:
Ama: i’m sort of in shock.
Ama: like…i’m gonna be what?
John: hahah
Ama: but i’m supposed to get new spells, right?
Ama: ’cause it’s an even level?
John: Yeah
John: But they’re kinda expensive.
Ama: like what?
John: Summon Mortgage
Ama: well fuck.
John: Balance Checkbook Rank 4
Ama: any good ones?
John: What class are you?
Ama: english major
John: I think you get ‘Great American Novel’ at 30…
If that didn’t make much sense to you, it probably means you don’t play enough World of Warcraft.
Pete, singing: There she was, just a-walkin’ down the street…do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do!
Me: What’s the name of that song? “Pretty Woman?” No, wait that’s not right…
Pete: I don’t know, go Google “do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do.” Somethin’ll come up!
I’ll be damned if “Do Wah Diddy” isn’t the name of the song.
Now he’s in the other room shouting “SCIENCE!” and raising his arm. Life is weird, sometimes.
Me: what colour’s your kitchen?
Joanne: all the app are the stainless steel – cabinets lite oak – stove black top – floor wood – the wall you can see is called himialaya silver.
Me: …where do they come up with these colour names? i want that to be my job.
Joanne: sitting behind a desk playing on a computer………………..i know it
Me: i could spend my days playing my game, and people would come up to me and say, “what colour do you think this is?” and i could reply, “oh, i think that’s tangerine sunset” and they would go away again…
