I remember punching out my time card. But I'd already ripped it in half. As we walked out into the street I was worried that the numbers wouldn't come through. Then I realized I was salary...

click... later on...

We were looking for clothes. The store looked like any normal bargain price store... I felt uncomfortable there. Then I saw you could buy jeans. There were wooden racks with jeans on them.

White floors, fluorescent lights. I was laughing so hard... If you wanted to try something on, you had to put a quarter in a machine.

I had sandals on and as I walked I slid across the room. That eventually turned into the whole point of the experience. Just sliding across this store.

I'd slide out the front doors. It was so hard to steer. I found it was easiest to steer if you did it backwards.

I remember going out into the parking lot.

I was back at my house... well, it was a mixture of the store and my house. Something happened... someone made me eat waffles. And I was putting syrup on the waffles.

My dad was having some type of an internet meeting at the house. I think I just wanted to keep sliding around.... The waffles just kept falling apart. There was enough batter for me to keep making them but I didn't.

Later, while at a checkout...

We were buying something and David Allen was trying to buy glasses. I was flirting with the girl behind the counter. And then, he put them on. He looked at me... he said: "Wow! I never knew you had two eyes!"

And I moved my eyes really fast just to trip him out. He was like, wow, you move your eyes really fast. The girl laughed.

Go Back
