The Life Of The Weirdo
I mean, in general, I know that the way I think about things isn’t going to align terribly well with the way the rest of the world thinks about things, and as a result I’ve been able to adjust my expectations.
Usually, at any rate. I know that, for example, not having any interest in sports is going to lead to a lot of time spent listening to things I have no interest in hearing about, and I know that people are going to look at me as though I have two heads when I say heretical and nonsensical (to them) things like, “I don’t care about sports.”
There are some things, though, that still manage to surprise me, and which don’t really seem that weird at all, and yet, given the way the world is, they must be.
I am, for example, apparently a weirdo because I’m looking for a belt that’s designed for a waist that’s under 32 inches.
And for wanting to buy a pair of black jeans that aren’t “skinny jeans.”
Those don’t seem that unusual – though to be fair, on the belt front, it’s worth remembering that this is America – and yet, here I am, after a trip to Target, devoid of either a new belt or a pair of black jeans.
I’m such a weirdo, apparently...
Piece Of Cake
(At the comic shop)
Owner: What would it take to get you to come in here on a Wednesday?
Me: Uhh…?
Cute Girl: Cake? I bet cake will do it.
Owner: Would you come in on a Wednesday if there were cake?
Me: I…what?
Owner: How about if there’s cake, it’s Superman’s birthday, it’s a Leap Year, and it will be our 15th year in business? Will that get you to come in on a Wednesday?
Me: (Looks at calendar on phone) Sure, I guess that will be enough to get me to come in on a Wednesday.
Owner: Good! We just want to do something to thank you for your part in keeping us in business.

What Could Go Wrong?
Whenever we’re going to be out of the office – whether for vacation or to work from home – we send our boss an Outlook meeting request so that she’ll have it on her Calendar.
I’m working from home on Monday, and again on Friday, so while I was sending out the invites I thought I might as well kill three birds with…well, three stones, I suppose, but whatever, and send out the invite for my planned day off for my birthday.
My birthday is on a Friday the 13th this year, so I wrote up the invite as follows:
Subject: Jon – OOO
Location: Camp Crystal Lake
Message: I’m heading up to Camp Crystal Lake for the weekend with my fellow hormone-addled camp counselors! What could go wrong?
I don’t think she actually noticed…
