In it, it says in order to have people like you and in order to poke fun at people in the wedding party, one must poke fun at oneself first.
So seeing as I spend much time criticizing others in this blog, perhaps it's time to shed light on some of my bigger dumb blonde follies:
1. We had to take 'Theatre History' in University but it was stupidly scheduled at 10 am in our fourth and final year. Okay, fine. The normal world gets up for 9-5, but actors are not normal. Especially those who are in shows in the evenings. I was busy being Blanche DuBois every night until at least 11pm. So not only was I not getting home until at least midnight, but I had to unwind from a three-hour performance which included a southern accent, bottle breaking, and being raped then going crazy. Needless to say, I had trouble falling asleep.
So I often skipped the 10am theatre history class.
Luckily, my good friend T-dot was taking notes for me.
I had all these notes regarding a famous playwright by the name of Goethe. When I returned to class after the closing night, our teacher put a big 'GOETHE' on the blackboard. But he kept talking about GERTA. I was confused. And not so subtly or quietly, I asked, in front of an ENTIRE classroom. Who is Go - eh - the?
The teacher was not impressed. T-dot still goes on about it.
2. I still have to make an 'L' shape with my hand when I am told to turn left.
3. My friends and I just started a dog walking business. I placed an ad on Craiglist. It reads:
Three lovely ladies will take care of your furry friend's needs.
Yup. That's right. Imagine our calls so far.
Do you like me more now that I have made fun of myself?
