Oh, yes, I did...

I paid five bucks to get my picture taken with these guys.  Dead serious.  I don't know what came over Cangrejo, but he was begging me to get our picture taken.  We were at the Fun Park, it's this place that has like a roller rink, pool tables, cosmic bowling, arcade games, and stuff like that.  These guys were there raising money for Relay for Life.  (Which, if you live under a rock, and don't know what Relay for Life is, educate yourself HERE)  That was one of the reasons he was able to convince me to do it because one of my best friends in the entire world fought off thyroid cancer.  Twice.  Before she graduated from high school.
The other reason I did it was that my oldest brother is a major Star Wars nerd.  The only thing he would have to do to be THE Ultimate Star Wars Nerd, would be to dress up with these guys and get his picture taken with screaming 5-year-olds.
Have I mentioned that I'm terrified of people in masks and/or costumes?  I can handle the costumes on Halloween, and I love to dress up, personally, but even on Halloween I can't stand masks.  Masks make me cry.  Seriously.  I decided I would be fine with the guys in costumes.  Especially since I recognized the one on the far left as the guy that delivers Pepsi to several stores in the area.  I didn't see the freakin storm trooper in the back room or else I probably wouldn't have taken the fucking picture.  I HATE MASKS.  Right before the lady takes the picture I glanced over my shoulder and that mother fucker is standing there with his stupid plastic gun and his dumb little hat mask thingy and it was all I could do to turn around and smile for the stupid picture.  And you can believe that the second that flash went off I was OUT OF THERE!  The lady was like "Go back!  Let's take one more for good measure!"  And I was just like, "No thanks, that one should be fine, I didn't blink, I promise, no really, it's fine, there's a line and I don't wanna keep these little kids waiting, SCREW YOU CAMERA LADY!!!  I'M NOT GOING BACK THERE EVER AGAIN YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!!"................Alright, so I exaggerated the last part a little bit, but that's what was going on in my head, and in my rush, I did run into the guy making balloon light sabers.

Okay.  Well, I'm going to watch the Spanish channel with my husband.  There's something on about a fat girl that has sex with animals.

  2. Hahaha! Well she did! She left her lover for her dog! And there were some people that were trying to help her get over her disease/addiction. They were arguing over what they should call it.
