Friday Post

Halloween weekend is such a blast. There are always tons of parties, and in a zany place like San Francisco, people take their Halloween seriously.

Tonight's nasty little soirée is going to be a high school theme. In deciding my costume, I have found that there are a hundred people doing different characters from the 80's high school movies and there were going to be some "naughty school girl" costumes displayed. I then decided that it is really hard to pick up on naughty school girls when you have a bra on your head dressed like Gary from Weird Science.

So, I am opting for something cool, and hopefully off the radar. I'm going as Jim Stark (James Dean) from Rebel Without a Cause. The only thing I have to buy is the pack of cigarettes for $24 (Thanks Bill!).

Anyway, speaking of cool (or more accurately, the complete opposite of cool), today I was walking to work when I notice my shoe was untied. At the same time, I had the Godfather, James Brown, playing some funk in my inner ear through my iPod. Trying to keep in beat, I bent down to tie my shoe, and one of my ear phones popped out. Since I was walking on the streets of San Francisco, I didn't want it to fall on the ground where it was a high probability that at some point someone had peed there. So I grabbed the hanging ear piece and put it in my mouth while I tied my shoe.

I got up, looking cool as someone could possibly be who is jammin' to some James Brown, and I put the ear piece back in my ear...

...and it was wet.

I had given myself a Wet Willy. Some young vixen that was walking towards me saw the whole thing, saw the sour look on my face as my ear turned moist from my own saliva, and busted out laughing.

James Dean would be rolling over in his grave...
