i went to la for a couple of days with my family. we went to disneyland and universal studios and i got to know the real meaning of happiness. actually, my two favorite memories happened at the hotel and at burger king somewhere between la and pleasanton.
i was eating breakfast one morning at the hotel; i was going all out and eating leftover steak, rice, and bbq. my dad saw me stuffing my face and then he asks, "darling, do you want some salt with that?"
"nope," i replied and kept eating.
"good for you," he said and walked away.
i sat there confused, was that a test?!? i think i passed. does he even have salt? i don't know...
on the drive back home i had to pee and i insisted we stop at the next in-n-out. of course we were about 3 hours from home and in the middle of nowhere. so we stopped at burger king coz i wanted chicken fries. while we were eating, my dad started another ridiculous conversation with the family.
"raise your hand if you know why they first invented the wristband."
silence. uhhh.... what the hell dad.
but then joey takes a stab, "um, because they wanted to show that dreams do come true?"
i saw my sister laughing behind a covered hand. then my mom goes, "joey, he said WRISTBAND."
"oh. nevermind then."
"what did you think he said?"
"disneyland..."
i didn't bother hiding my laughter anymore. its true i suppose. dreams can come true. thats why i wear my wristbands anyway, and to look cool...
