April Fool's Day

Dear (Your Name Here),

So I'm doing evaluations at work with crutches. The only person who knew right away was the manager, and she told a couple people but most of them still believe it. I was thinking about walking right out of here, carrying the crutches, but I'm tempted to just show up tomorrow and see if anybody questions it.

The guy I'm evaluating is taking a really long time to get back to the table and take their order. He's this tall guy who talks kind of like he's faking being from the ghetto but he dresses and keeps his hair like he's really into Metallica. Apparently he's in a band too. I overheard he and one of my managers conversating about it. Sounded lame. How rude of me, but my food is here so I'm concentrating on that. Be right back.

That was tasty. Anyway the guy is pretty nice and all, so I don't know what I was complaining about. I guess I was just grumpy because I hadn't really eaten all day.

So I finished reading Watchmen. And I feel that people hyped it up way too much. Not that it was terrible or bad even, just the way people had been saying "It's the best graphic novel ever," and "It'll blow you out of the water," (even the back cover leads you to think it is miraculous). I'm not going to rip apart or anything, but the story never drew me in. I felt it was predictable, and I felt that I've been told this story before in old sci-fi movies. Now there were a lot of cool things along the way, and those devices, in a way, made it feel like I was reading a comic by a mastermind like Shakespeare. And I feel like I could enjoy it more if I read it a few more times, but after trying to digest it, I don't feel like picking it back up for a while. And maybe I'll like it much more whenever that may be. Just for the right reasons, and not because a random guy at Kerbey Lane told me it's the best book I'll ever read.

I'm starting to get extremely bored. Time to trick someone new.

It worked. Sheesh I never knew fooling people was so easy. Oh yeah, I forgot that I totally knew how easy it was. That's why I do it all the time. Well time to get back to never playing guitar again for the rest of my life.

Happy Anniversary GG and Pops!
