last night i went out to dinner with my friend nick. i shouldn't have gone out to dinner as i have been eating every two hours as of late. the over eating started in texas and there seems to be no end in sight. but i was very bored and hanging out with nick sounded fun, even though i knew i would eat my weight in french fries.
nick is my token gay friend. he is mean, rude and asks me things like, "don't you hate being poor?". i'm friends with nick because we used to work together at disneyland. every day we would start some sort of trouble. nick would accept and perform any dare offered to him. once, i dared him to do a whole show as a straight man. it may not sound funny to you, but if you saw the show and knew nick, you would laugh as hard i as i did. i almost threw up i was laughing so hard. my last night working at disneyland, i dared nick to come with me to the hotel bar on our break, drink some stuff, then come back and do shows. i drank half of a weak cocktail, and nick did shots. he was so drunk he started crying on stage. again, i was laughing so hard i almost threw up.
nick got in trouble all the time at work and didn't care. he always got out of it by confusing the managment. the managment at disneyland is not too bright and nick is one of the brightest people i have ever met. he's not all that smart and reads best sellers exclusively, but he knows how to manipulate people. nick is a good person at work to have in your corner. one time, a guy at work went crazy and yelled at me in front of everyone. he said (screamed) that i had said that gay people would go to hell. i never said anything like that. i don't even think that. but the word got out and with a lot of gay people working in my area, i got a reputation real quick. nick, without me asking, took it upon himself to personally tell all the gay people that he knew that i don't hate homosexuals. i thought this a little much, but i was pretty grateful.
dinner with nick was nice. i ate too much, nick was rude to the waiter and told me that i am aging and that he could now "see the bakersfield in my face". he told me all about the tons of money he makes now and said that i need to figure out to do with my life. nick is mean and rude, but he's also a kick in the head and deep down very kind.
