Brandi and Alex met at a party populated by some old high school friends and some people neither of them knew. Alex thought Brandi was pretty hot. Brandi was on her period when they met.
Brandi was studying sign language at the local community college. She recently was fired from her part-time job at Panda Express for excessive tardiness. Her parents shut off Brandi’s cell phone because of her poor grades in school. Her dad said, “I don’t know what the big deal is, we did just fine without cell phones when I was a kid.”
Alex said he was taking the semester off from the same community college. He was working part-time for a landscaper and was also a Level 80 Paladin. Alex paid for his own cell phone and he allowed Brandi to text her friends on it.
Mmmmmm, I thought Brandi was a waitress in a harbor town bar… Must be another Brandi you’re speaking of here… Besides the Brandi I’m thinking of was hung on a sailor… Non sequitur alert…
Hey Prescott. Non sequitur indeed, thanks for the alert. Haha
I don’t think this Brandi would make such a good wife, fine girl though she might be.
Well of course he took a semester off. Playing video games requires an enormous commitment after all. (and yes, I had to google “Level 80 Paladin”…sigh) Love the B&W photos.
p.s. Tag, you’re it! http://mamalonglegs.wordpress.com/2009/08/31/567/
Isn’t Brandi, Brittany’s sister….ya I thought so. I would have fired her from Panda too!
She was probably chronically late to work cause she was practicing her sign language in the car…you know its hard to do both…it slows you down quite a bit!
Its like texting but with both hands…there should be a law.
deep
Deep yes, but also layered and nuanced.
WTF? My Dad used to tell me this story when I was young…but in his version Alex was a Tetris level 17. Oh, and Brandi was a total slut who got pregnant, was kicked out of the house and ended up living in a trailer park on the outskirts of Regina.
She didn’t even have a landline.
Lovin’ the pics.
Everyone knows you can’t get pregnant when you’re on your period! And Brandis are always sluts, especially when they dot their i’s with hearts.
As Brandi was on her period, and told Alex, he dumped her and moved on to Bambi who was not on her period. They lay down in the speckled looking grass and had great sex. Brandi cried. Then she texted all her friends that Bambi was a slut
That is a perfect ending to the story. Well, at least until Bambi is on her period and then Alex goes back to Brandi.
Its a vicious cycle of menses and breaking up.
Thank you. I know trailer trash when i see it!
I love this idea. I love it so much I might steal it. You’re welcome to sue me for royalties when I do. You can have 75% of what I make from it. Deal? I’ll have my people call your people.
Deal, I’ll send you a Memorandum of Understanding by return mail.
but where does the mouse fit in?
I imagine the mouse will fit in wherever Alex tries to put it.
That too BK, but to answer your question YnB, the mouse alludes to Alex being online playing World of Warcraft (that’s what the Level 80 Paladin refers too). I just thought the term was funny.
I feel lost in a world of non-sequiturs, menses, mice, and ….hey wait, where did Richard Gere go?? Damn, I was just about to make a joke. I can’t wait to see where you are going with this!!
Its not going anywhere…that’s it. I have a couple of other shorts like this I am working though. Cheers, Scott.
I am absolutely loving the comments here and can’t even add to them. Thanks for the morning laugh. I too had to Google,”Level 80 Paladin”.
Don’t know why my head goes where it does, but this party sounds like one of those social gatherings where pretty much everyone has done everyone else at one time or another.
Have you been to one of those parties BG?!?!
Only once — so much anxiety!
Did they make a love connection?
