Well now that I have gotten the worst 50 songs ever list done, and I have posted my “Return of the Dragon Gods” story for the week (which will end up being a two parter). I will tell you another story of some of the great times I have had with my best friend Eric. This story, surprisingly, has nothing to do with the great times I have had being a roadie for his band One Breath; which surprisingly might be getting back together for a reunion with some new song as well. No this story deals with one of the many times I went to visit him when he would work out of town.
I called him up one weekend and asked if he was too busy that weekend to hang out, since at the time we were living about 50 miles from each other him in Youngstown and me in Stow. Well he said that he had to work in just outside of Pittsburgh (about 20 miles or so east), but he could give me some gas money if I wanted to come out so I said sure why not.
Well I drove out there and when I finally got to his motel the he was staying at I found out that our other friend Brandon was staying there as well. So the three of us piled into Eric’s Geo Metro and went out, we went to Denny’s and ate some dinner. Brandon flirted a little with the waitress. Then we rode around a little bit and went back to the motel.
After a few minutes of shooting the breeze I decided it was time for me to make the long trip home, so I asked for the gas money they said they’d give me. Well they told me sure we’ll give ten bucks, but you have to work for it. They told me I have to dance for them “American Pie” style. They told me that it would help me boost my confidence with the ladies. Well knowing Eric and how his mind works I said sure I’ll do it, beside I needed the gas money.
So the grabbed the clock radio and proceeded to try to find a good song on the radio. Once they told me to start I danced around a little with a chair and then I took off my shirt and twirled it around a little bit to be funny and threw it to the side. They told me they wanted more so I took off my shoes and tossed them aside along with my socks. Well they still weren’t satisfied so I took off my shorts and threw them.
Well next thing you know Brandon grabs my clothes and runs out of the room, leaving me to chase him wearing nothing but my boxers in about early March. I chased him down the hallway and down the stairs and he continued to run into the parking lot and across the parking lot and hung them off of a truck. I got about two steps towards the door towards and froze.
Sitting on the curb was a beautiful girl wondering what was going on. Well after about a minute and Eric encouraging me to go on I went out there and grabbed my clothes put them back on and then explained to the girl what had happened. She laughed and we just kept on talking for a few minutes until she went back to her room.
Well after my friends joked with me a little bit about not trying to get invited to follow her back into her room they gave me my $10 and I left. So that is the story of how I met a girl wearing only my boxers.
Random Bachelor Card of the Day: “Return from the bathroom with your fly down or with toilet paper stuck to your shoe. Buy a drink for the first sweetie who points it out.”
That could be a fun one to try.
