Sometimes I pretend I'm a decent well-adjusted adult
Which is all too certainly a falsity
Last night was a great example
While my friends posed as the legal age
And flirted with bartenders
I pretended to be pregnant to have a good justification not to drink
Plus I'm Jeannie, I kinda can't help that fact
Which is why, when my girl brought up Wendigos
All pretense flew out the window-
"You know what those are? I'm so excited- mostly I'm the one who tells people about them! Have you seen Skin and Bones? Of course you haven't, but you could! We should watch it! I'm being a Wendigo for Halloween- yes I know I look completely wrong- But I don't care! Wuuaghhh That's so exciting! We should take pictures on Halloween! We should take pictures now! I am SO excited for Halloween! Yes, of course you're sexy enough to be Poison Ivy! I'm not being sexy one bit- but I am going to attempt to look shirtless! Of course I've planned my costume, haven't you? I've been planned since last November! Oh- I'm so glad you know what Wendigos are- Aren't they cool? Wuuaaaghhh!"
They didn't ask for her ID.
But they asked for mine.
(Which I didn't have on me)
Even though all I drank was water.
I suppose that proves my point.
I don't think I'll ever grow up, really.
And I'm more than content with that!
