Bloggy Bonhomie: Dinner Date Edition

Its getting serious, people. That Bitchin’ Wife and I shared...dinner!

Join us, won’t you? [doodaloodoodaloodoodaloo]

Amy and Ann: Omyblog you look so purty and you too, you too, you too and bloggy-bloggo-blogenshtina and Jimmy crack-blog but I don’t care, me either! Me either! OMblog, ME EITHER!

Waiter: I hate to interrupt, but just thought I’d ask once more if you’d like some drinks?

Amy: I’ll have an old fashioned, Makers Mark, sweet.

Waiter: Would you like fruit?

Amy: 'Scuse me?

Waiter: Fruit. Would you like some fruit with it?

Amy: Umm, like what?

Waiter: Fruit (definitively) Like an olive.

Amy and Ann flinch dramatically, in opposite direction, but with parallel meaning

Amy: Well, just tell the bartender--they usually come with a maraschino cherry.

Waiter: So no olive?

Amy: No (goddamned) olive.

Ann: (Easing all manner of olive tensions with off-the cuff-olive shenanigans) I’ll have her olive--winkwink, yuccayucca-- in a very very large straight up vodka martini. Ohkay? OK (sweet smile and offoff with you, strange not-backing-off the olive in a sweet drink, non-blogger waiter fellow)

[later]

Amy: So Braja types so fucking fast. Like 170 wpm, with no mistakes.

Ann: Why doesn’t that surprise me…

Amy: Oh, will you tell me if I have anything in my teeth after eating these green-seasoned croutons?

Ann: You’re saying that because I presently have green shit in my teeth, correct?

Amy: Yes.

Ann: Seizes butter knife and proceeds to less-than-discretely check teeth in knife reflection.

Amy: ????

Ann: Never seen anyone do that before? Great way to apply lipstick. Anyway bloggy master plan and bloggy blunders and blogme-Amadeus.

[much later, everyone has left the restaurant--a long time ago]

Waiter: More water? More coffee? More water? More coffee? More water? More coffee?

Amy and Ann cock their heads, in opposite direction, but with parallel meaning

Amy:…oh and I seriously need some new emoticons.

Ann: What I think I hear you saying is you’d like another way to express your emotions while commenting?

Amy: Yes, Ann. Thank goodness I have someone in my life to validate me in this manner.

Ann: Wait, remember that time that the waiter asked if you wanted fruit with your Old Fashioned? Laughs uproariously, slamming table, throwing head back almost to the point of decapitation…

Amy: You mean 90 minutes ago?

Ann: Yes—you’re right. ‘Twas a mere 1.5 hours past. Who will reference the appropriate time frame for me when you move the Bitchin’ Family to Slutshole Lane?

Amy: (wiping tear from her eye) Let’s go scrape off our cars…

Ahhhhhnd, SCENE!

    If you feel like it, head on over to my bloggity blog and do the purse meme. It's funny when you start pulling Just a Drop out and take a picture.

  13. Too funny.. it took me a moment to realize that "bloggy-bloggo-blogenshtina and Jimmy crack-blog but I don’t care, me either! Me either! OMblog"

    was NOT the actual conversation, but about blogging. I wonder if the waiter realized he was going to be featured in (probably) yet another blog

  17. ha ha ha.

    The proper term for an Old Fashioned with fruit is a "Muddled Old Fahioned. But I thought you had to be at least 105 years old to order one.

    Where do you guys live? Kansas? hee hee
