Sellevision and the KFC

Remember how I complain about people coming up to me and talking to me for no reason? Yesterday I had errands to run, hubby's errands really but he is on nights this week. I went to eat a quiet lunch at KFC, I took my book with me. I notice I am the only woman in there. Evidently KFC is a big hangout for construction guys, the place was full of dirty sweaty men. Anyway I am sitting there, engrossed in my book when someone pokes me on the shoulder and its one of the construction men. He said "I read books too". I just didnt know how to respond to that one. So I just gapped at him. Then he says "Thats a good book. There is alot of information in there". Now Sellevision is a novel. Its good novel but its just a fun read. I dont think there is any information to be had in there! Oh wait....when Max goes to the Porno movie studio he discovers how they make fake semen, that was informative I guess. Anyway its a great book, its by Augusten Burroughs. I recommend it, and you too can learn how to make fake semen, and get poked at the KFC by dirty sweaty construction men.

Happy Thursday! OH, I won a battle! I am now 1-1 !! Haha...GO ME!

I've also read all of the Augusten's books and love his writing. I can't believe that conversation though. Sounds like a man with a low IQ just wanted to make some conversation with an intelligent lady??

Once, when I was living with a bunch of actors, one of them had a jar of fake semen that they were using in a play, which had to be kept in our fridge. The play had a run of two weeks -- that's a bloody long time to have a big vat of liquid marked "Semen" on the top shelf....

So you guys think he was trying to hit on me??? Cool. I never get hit on. Or maybe I am just to dense to tell the difference between annoying and hitting on. hmmm.
