Self Portrait

September 24, 2009 /

Last night we ordered Chinese food for dinner because Chris and I were too tired to cook something.   Chinese food makes me happy.

After I ate, I thought to myself, “Gee, I should really get off my big arse and blog,” but I discovered that I couldn’t stand up.   I had eaten myself into a hole on my couch.   I had become so full of Chinese food that I couldn’t move.

I was my own Chinese paperweight.

Weird, huh?

So, as I’m rolling around on the couch trying to find the will to sit upright, I started thinking about my life on the couch full of Chinese food.   What if I could never get up again?   I’d need to find something else to entertain me for the rest of my Chinese food-filled life.

And that’s when I found the Photo Booth feature on my laptop.

Well, that’s entertaining.

Yep.   Hours of entertainment.

About this time, I started really laughing good.   Really loud laughing, too.

Like I was afraid I might wake the baby.

And for some reason, that made me laugh even harder.

So then Chris came into the room and wanted to know what was so darn funny.

He’s nosy like that.

I started out slow with him.   I antique’d us first.

He thought it was cool, but he didn’t really understand the true joy of the Photo Booth.   So I upped the stakes a little.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, GREMLINS!

Now Chris was starting to get into it.

So I said, “Step into my tunnel of light, Sugar Lamb.”

And he did.

After the tunnel of light, its really hard to think anything else is fun at all.   So, Chris went back to his computer and I continued to roll around on the couch with my happy, bloated, Chinese food-filled belly.

I didn’t need Chris.

There are plenty other fish in the sea.
