Tee-hee
I haven't been updating my blog because we've been busy at work. And since I know so many funny people and am lucky enough to be part of weird conversations, I have a lot to blog about. But below is probably my favorite of last week.
I was at Angie's and we were all watching American Idol (don't judge us). This movie trailer came on, and it was about a mermaid who needed to find true love.
Me: Oh gawd, if I was 7 that would be my favorite movie. Is it bad I want to see it anyway?
Angie: No! (she's so supportive) It looks cute, I'd watch it.
Me: When I was 7, I was so in love with mermaids. I wanted to be one. And I asked for a mermaid barbie doll, and you know? I never got one. I'm still bummed about it.
Angie: That sucks. When I was little, I wanted a mannequin.
Me: BWWAHH HA HA HA HA HA Whaaaaaat da hell? (I'm not supportive)
Angie: I saw that movie, and I just thought that was the coolest thing EVER! I wanted a mannequin so bad to dress up.
Me: *hysterics* That is so AWESOME! This is why I love you.
Angie: I asked for one for about three years, and I never got it.
Me: *still laughing*
Angie: I'm serious! I asked for a mannequin for like, three years.
Both: *laughing*
Angie: They cheated me! If I'd had a mannequin, I could totally be a fashion designer! That mannequin could have changed my life!
Me: Damn parents just ruined your future right there.
Angie: I KNOW! I could be a famous designer!
Me: They owe you money for ruining your chances, by God.
Angie: Really. That's why if my kid ever asked for something weird, I'd let them have it. Cause you just.. never.. know.
*short pause*
Me: Well unless it was a boy...
Angie: *starts laughing*
Me: Cause then that could be weird...I might save the money for the mannequin and take him to the psychologist.
Angie: *laughs harder*
Me: I'd want to know why the hell he wanted a damn mannequin, that's for sure. I'd pop into his room unexpectedly to see what he was up to with it.
Angie: *wheeze*
Me: Whatchoo doin' in here with that mannequin! No, don't do that! That's BAD!
Angie: *cry*
Me: Honey, we need to talk. You just scared mommy.

Oh, Cookie, can we please go back in time and be friends as kids? I drew mermaids all the time.
I want Angie to be there too because I LOVED Mannequin and my friends and I even played "mannequin" at school.
Yes! We could talk about mermaids and sing JEM!
It'd be like our friendship now cause we still sing JEM but we talk about Buffy instead of mermaids.
I also.. *shame*
I liked unicorns, too.
And Angie will be SO happy that someone else played Mannequin. Oh, that still makes me laugh.
Who didn't like unicorns? Laura had them plastered all over her bedroom wall until she was, like, 20.
I was partial to My Little Pony.
