Well, This Is Awkward
We at Cake Wrecks realize that there are some of you who don't celebrate Christmas. Or Hanukkah. Or Kwanzaa. Or any other winter holiday. Heck, you probably don't even like winter all that much. Or snow. Or puppies. Basically, there's just no making you happy. So, in an effort to placate your scrooge-ish sensibilities, today's commentary will be completely made up of awkward, holiday-free small talk. Enjoy.
Yep...I hear it might even hit 20 degrees tonight. Here! In Florida! Crazy....
So...
Have you heard if they canceled Castle? 'Cuz that would be a bummer for Nathan Fillion.You know, the guy from Firefly?
Firefly. C'mon: the Joss Whedon show? Really popular? No? You've...never seen it. Oh. Um. Never mind.
So... [puffing out cheeks]...yeah.
Uh... Chris, right? What do you do again?
Oh, you're an accountant. Great.
You know, my lawn is just completely dead.
...
Probably the cold.
So... how do you know Janet?
Bunko, huh? Huh. I've heard that's...fun.
[checking watch]
Hey, you know what I could use? A beer. [elbowing ribs] Nothing better on a cold night, am I right? Eh? Can I grab you one?
Oh. You don't drink. [nodding] Well, good! Good for you.
[scratching ear]
Now there is a smokin' fine woman. Hoo whee! Get a looksie at that caboose!
....
I'm terribly sorry. I didn't realize you had a daughter.
Do you know where the bathroom is? Over there? Oops, Janet just went in. Guess I'll just wait.
[fidgeting] [sigh] [adjusting cufflinks]
Woo boy. I'm getting kinda hungry... think I'll go check out that cheese platter. Want anything?
Lactose intolerant, huh? Bummer. Well, it was great talking to you... Christine, right? Ok, yeah, I'll talk at you later. You can count on it! Heheh, get it? That's a little number humor for ya.
Oh, and sorry again about the caboose thing. You have a lovely daughter. In fact, I...am leaving now, yes. Sorry. G'night.
Thanks, Tyler L., Vanessa D., Somer P., Reginia B., Rachel H., Jason D., David G., Christina N., & Ashley. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll just be over here sway-dancing in the corner and trying to avoid eye-contact.
