It's pretty simple. This post is open. You can tag it with someone with a request or to be surprised, prompts optional (though if you leave it up to me it will probably be ridiculous), and let's have some fun. Muselist is HERE.

Have fun my dears.

Sister. Older. Wants me to get a real job.

[playgrounding]

What's the fake job?

[thebestofme]

Make up artist.

[playgrounding]

Sounds like a real job to me.

[thebestofme]

To you, maybe. To my sister who works in a grocery store to make ends meet? Not so much.

[playgrounding]

But, does it matter how ends are met? Some people do that. I'm sure if you had no other choice, you'd get any job. But, you're doing what you love, right? And that's what should matter.

[thebestofme]

It should.

[But it doesn't because her sister never got to do what she loved. that's what happens when you get pregnant at sixteen.]

[playgrounding]

Is there a lot of pressure to please your family?

[thebestofme]

[There's a beat.]

We are so not psychoanalyzing me on this lunch.

[playgrounding]

We can psychoanalyze me if you prefer. It's probably much more rewarding. I'm the baby of the family.

[thebestofme]

So am I. I'm not sure if that won't still wrap around to me, so how bout we just ... talk? Like normal people?

[playgrounding]

I wasn't aware we weren't. [ but, you win. ] What do you want to talk about?

[thebestofme]

[she shrugs]

What's happening in the big wide world out there?

[playgrounding]

Manti Te'o had a fake ex-girlfriend who he was told had died thanks to the worst friends in the world. Jodi Foster came out. I think. As fifty. And as private. ...Kim Kardashian's son or daughter could technically be Kris Humphries' because of California Law.

[thebestofme]

... Wow. I regret that question already.

[playgrounding]

The president will be inaugurated on Martin Luther King Day.

[thebestofme]

Thank God he's not a Republican.

[playgrounding]

Are you a sports fan?

[thebestofme]

[shakes her head]

I like sports bars? But I never really pay attention to the games.

[The food is better.]

[playgrounding]

You're like my first girlfriend.

[thebestofme]

[eyebrow raise]

That's the comparison you're making?

[playgrounding]

She loved bars. Loved them. Loved the food. The socializing. The beer. The food. But, the sports, she could give or take. Never could get her to wear a Dolphins jersey.

[thebestofme]

[and that eyebrow climbs even higher.]

Probably because she had the good sense to recognize that the Dolphins suck.

[playgrounding]

Well, you know enough.

[thebestofme]

[She smirks.]

Enough what?
