Acting!
“I can cry on demand,” I whispered to the girl sitting next to me at the bar.
“I’ve noticed,” she said. “Because you’ve been crying for the past twenty minutes.”
“Only because I wanted to,” I replied, shifting around the empty glass in front of me. “It’s for a movie I’m in. I’m an actor.”
“Is the movie called Dude Who Tries To Work Up The Courage To Talk To Me For Twenty Minutes, But Instead Cries?”
“NO. It’s a new movie where me and Paul Walker from 2 Fast, 2 Furioso walk around shirtless on a beach, and it’s about him yearning to get abs as good as mine. It’s from the writer of New Year’s Eve and the director of New Year’s Eve’s Douche. Yes, he directed a commercial for Eve’s Douche, but it was really tastefully done, and super funny. And also, you don’t know that I’ve been trying to work up the courage!”
“I’m sorry. Do you normally order up 5 shots of Sex on the Beach and keep them untouched in front of you?”
“Yes,” I said.
“Jesus, you’re worse than I thought.”
“Uh oh, I feel a bad case of the sniffles coming on.”
