a funny thing happened on the way to the forum (er, home).

id been happily minding my own business, thinking about the funny ways i could make this one specific girl in my polisci class to shut her mouth for the entire duration of 2 hours. just because the professor strongly resembles hugh grant and could quite possibly be hugh grant in disguise using the alias ian down, doesnt justify interrupting the lecture with lame unwitty commentary or asking questions regarding "the super miniature countries of europe". perhaps id be okay with it if elizabeth hurley sat in front of me and played off of his periodic witty remarks, but anyone who sounds like a russian mail order bride and has a facial structure that rivals shaq's needs a pair of depends for her mouth. anyway...i was on my way home and noticed that people began setting up for the whole earth festival, also known as hippiefest. (so shoot me, im gonna get flak for that). after walking a few feet out of hutchison a man with a straw hat approached me asking if id wanted some "goodies". i politely rejected his offer and passed on through campus. two girls sat on the grass designing tshirts with glitter paint. they looked like the kind of shirts that you could make at those elementary school carnivals for 15 bucks when the supplies consisted of a 3 dollar hanes tshirt and leftover tempura paint from the kindergarten classes. im sure the glitter paint was a step up from that paint. as i passed by one of them uttered "ysmoke". "pardon?" i asked twice and then she looked at me smiling saying "do you smoke?". once again i rejected the offer. i suppose its awfully nice that people are willing to share their possessions. do i look like the type of person who smokes? and i dont mean that in a rude sense. it made me wonder if these same people would also provide the same offer to someone that resembled lets say...theo. my dad would have patted me on the back had he been there. as for my mom...well shed freak out and lecture me not to do drugs even after witnessing something like that.

and yes, even if elizabeth hurley offered me "goodies" id reject her offer. well actually it would depend on the tone she used if she said "goodies."
