chapstick and tuna burps

I melted one of my chapsticks to the point of no return. The other one oddly broke... sounds weird, but really the plastic tube broke. Moral of the story: After a good week or two without chapstick, while sick and therefore unable to borrow friends', I bought some at the store! Praise King Jesus for the intelligent mind that created this wonderful product. My lips are so much healthier.

Tuna Burps.

My friend Camille (on THE list of "why denver") took me to a great show last night with her amigos, Bodie and Whitney. As we were mingling at the bar, Bodie saw a friend from the music world he runs in and began the introductions. Laura (or something like that) shook my hand and leaned in... this is where it went awry. Was she leaning in to ask for clarification on my name, to kiss the cheek or just to lean in with the firm handshake? Either way, it was unexpected and I was mid-burp, yes, about to exhale the yummy tuna/goat cheese concoction I made for dinner, and happened to release right into her ear/face. Perfect introduction. I immediately turn to Camille and confess the awkward moment and hope the bar-stench overpowered my own.

Why was I not cool enough to know this happened especially after having a front row seat!??!!!!!!!?? The girl was probably WAY beyond normalcy to know what even hit her!
