blink blink....

Don't you hate it when you're the only one in a group not to get a joke? Now imagine that there are 400 people in that group, and the joke lasts 2 hours. That was my night yesterday. I went to something called Beer & Skits with my dad, the step-family, my brother and sister. It was a musical political satire. I realised just how little I follow politics. At least Canadian - and especially local - politics. I didn't know who 75% of the characters were or what the jokes were referring to. The room would be laughing hysterically and I would just repeat my mantra of the night: "I don't get it". Luckily, I wasn't completely alone in my ignorance, my siblings also spent the majority of the show staring ahead and blinking blankly.  Haha. blinking blankly. Blinky blanky. Sounds funny. Now that's comedy! Anyway, I still had a good night, amused to no end by my political ineptitude and sharing bewildered shrugs with my sister.

On another note, and because I know everyone is wondering, Stars on Ice was okay. You know how it goes, skate skate jump. Skate skate spin. Meh, nothing special.

JUST KIDDING! It was awesome, of course!!! And our seats were incredible, inches away from the ice. You could hear that wonderful swishing of the blades, and Kurt totally looked right at me. Yay!!! Now I've got a whole other year to wait....

I am glad that you had so much fun.  I have never been to a Stars on Ice.  I would really love to go and see one.

omg you psyched me out!  I know how much you were looking forward to the Ice Show, so when i read "meh, nuthin special" i figured maybe i was thinking of the wrong person.  You tricked me, i should be waving my menacing finger at you manders...
Too funny, i got gotten.

My theory is that the comedy sucked and that the people who were pissing themselves laughing are, for the most part, wankers.
