The Day The Internet Portal Opened and No One Got Killed!
She called out to me with a challenge….’Tear down the fourth wall. You hear me TEAR DOWN THE FOURTH WALL!’
(Like Reagan to Gorbachev but WAY MORE DRAMATIC!)
Oh my god she is so crazy, why? Why me. Oh fuck, I was about to meet the INTERNET, in person. Like face to face. No fourth wall to keep up appearances. The only wall to focus on now was one that will for ever peer into your eyes where ever you go!
Yes this weekend I met Ryan and Dorian…
(doesn’t she look nervous about me being in her home..haaa, but she got over it once I assured her that I was not going to paint over her)
I will back track a moment. Through a secret portal that Ryan and I have access to we can be magically beamed over to each other’s homes. That’s right, there are magic portals. I wish I could tell you all how to find them, but it is a lot like finding a unicorn in your back yard. It just kind of happens out of the blue one day and them BLAMMO! YOU OWN A UNICORN.
The first time I was supposed to slip into the portal, all hell broke loose. My hair got stuck in the door as it closed then I realized I forgot to put my pants on so I had to go back through the opening quickly and by that time? Time was up and The Dish’s birthday dinner had to get made and copious amounts of wine needed to be drank.
This day however I was bound and determined to not get stuck in the portal. But I had a dilemma….a very, very serious dilemma. What do you bring to someone from the Internet. I thought about having some of our twitter conversations framed like a whole series of them that she could hang next to Dorian and then I realized my twitter background and Ryan’s? They just don’t match Dorian….sigh, what to bring, WHAT TO BRING??? I asked The Dish and he was all…’I don’t now, but call me when you are done, I don’t want the Internet to kill you!’ (which made me laugh…pfft! who’s ever been killed by the Internet, please) I decided on booze because, OBVIOUSLY. We both might want a stiff drink especially Ryan when I did one of those fancy schmancy e-brake skidding into the parking spot stunts right in front of her house, like this little girl…
(video via Good Mom/Bad Mom…and I so wish I knew how to do one of those, but in my mind that is how I totally arrived at her house. )
Where I realized that I had forgotten to put on deodorant.
YES, people…I seriously went to meet Ryan, a little nervous and sweaty and apparently a wee bit stinky.
