LADIES NIGHT
Scenario: Discussing the week’s events.
Excerpt:
Lady 1: This week has been kind of tough. Jim has this really good girlfriend who he went to school with who’s visiting. She’s spent all this time working as a doctor in Ecuador…
Lady 2: …Threatening.
Lady 1: And all the guys are friends with her, and when they talk about her, it’s always in these awed tones like, “Oh, Abri this, Abri’s so cool.”
Lady 3: (Pulls in air through teeth)
Lady 1: And she is cool. I mean, she’s done all this amazing stuff.
Lady 3: Bitch.
Lady 2: Ha!
Lady 1: No, she’s really nice. Like, I’m thinking, OK. I’m going to try really hard to like her, because I know that my natural inclination is going to be to not like her, and that’s not fair. But she turned out to be really cool.
Lady 2: Which is even more threatening.
Lady 1: No, I like her. I mean it’s been a lot better than I expected.
Lady 3: You’re a better woman than I.
Scenario: One of the ladies is in a band and wants to run a song by us.
Excerpt:
Lady 1: (Singing) I kinda wanna, I kinda wanna see you again./ I kinda wanna, I kinda wanna kiss you again.
All: Woo hoo.
Lady 1: (singing) I kinda wanna, I kinda wanna touch you again./ I wanna let you in!
All: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo!
Lady 2: Tsk! She’s talking about emotional availability, you guys. Geez.
