If you know me, you know I might refer to movies or movie characters in conversation often. Yet somehow I still maintain friendships. I had a moment Friday night when I was hanging out with some of my favorite people in the world Aaron Heeter and Anna Weber and their cool friend Tara (I think, I'm terrible with names) when I felt myself realize how annoying I could be to someone just meeting me.
You know when you meet people sometimes you are a more composed, more polite, more intelligent, more politically correct version of yourself...This wasn't one of those nights. If you've ever had a Fernando's margarita you know. If you have had 2, you really know.
*(This is for another story but Anna and I actually had 2 pitchers one long terrible night. We survived but both got sick as shit. Anna walked home from Wrightwood and Clark to Altgeld and Ashland, rape free).
I could hear myself naturally referring to Mickey Rooney in "National Velvet" or the Zac Attack band from "Saved by the bell". One friend commented that I have a movie photographic memory. It's not true, I just love movies. My point is, if you want to get in with me or my family go to the movies. We all refer to them!
