so this last sunday we were invited to a dessert party. it was later in the evening and was to be at the house of a bunch of girls. not a bad set up for a party. they had a multi level house and plenty of brownies and cookies to munch on.
as my roommates and i entered the house we were over whelmed by the clatter of "hungry hungry hippos." it was deafening. four full grown adults pounding on the plastic hippo butts as hard and fast as they could. about half way through the 'game' one of the hippos was completely broken off from the base. he lost. so did the hippo. my roommate commented, "yup, this game requires just as much skill as i remember."we fought our way to the dessert table in the kitchen. ate some very good treats and decided to mingle.
after sliding in and out of a few groups, we all ended up on the front porch by ourselves again. so we started quoting "arrested development" to eachother (very good show, by the way). as we stood there trapped in self-inflicted isolation, we noticed other people were starting to gather around us to see what we were laughing about (i guess we laugh louder than 'hungry hungry hippos'). and pretty soon we found that about a third of the party was outside participating in our outcast conversation.life is funny sometimes.
