today was a fun day. i spent it in polo with my friends. i like it there. the world seems so much simpler when i don't have to think about what i'm doing. i mean, packing boxes seems second nature...so i really don't have to give it much thought. last weekend, i invented a new game. it's called "do you know jesse hicks?" here's the rules: you ask someone if they know jesse hicks. he can be whoever or whatever they want him to be. they can know him in a number of different ways. the only real rule is to be creative. by the way, jesse hicks is made up. i made him up. now i'm sure somewhere in the world there is a jesse hicks. as a matter of fact, i'm sure there's lots of them. but this game is funny because it usually goes like this:
"do you know jessie hicks?"
"jesse hicks? that name sounds so familiar."
"yeah, we were talking yesterday and he said he knew you."
"hmm...does he have brown hair?"
"yes."
"i think i might have had class with him."
or..it could go a number of different ways. what makes the game so incredibly funny is that almost everyone you ask will say that they either know him or they've heard of him...because they don't want to risk looking stupid. it's rather hillarious and it shows how silly we are. i made up the game last sunday night when some people were sitting around my apt. and i didn't know anyone they were talking about. i wanted to join in the conversation, but i had no clue who they were talking about...so jesse hicks was born. then shea and i introduced the game to andrea. we had a good time playing today at work. andrea even went so far as to have jesse paged over the intercom. man, what fun! i'm going to miss those girls.
i also got this really awesome card today. it really made me smile from ear to ear. you can check it out here! thanks, jeremy!
