Camera Phone Mis-Kue

November 6th, 2007 • Related • Filed Under

Usually I’m fairly decent about seeing when …

A guy is making a move.

Either on me or on someone else.

Or maybe not even making a move,

But posturing themselves to help preserve their opportunity to make a move …

At a later time.

Though Saturday night,

I totally missed the boat on seeing one such move-type-thing coming,

Until I had already been suckered into it.

So in the spirit of sharing my mistakes,

As to help you avoid making the same ones …

Here’s how I easily ended up giving a guy my real mobile phone number,

Without even realizing I did until it was too late.

Saturday night …

Baby, Sister-In-Law and mwah went to the local comedy club.

Now for those of you who have never been to a comedy club before,

Usually it’s not a good idea to sit stage front …

As you tend to attract the attention of the comedians.

Attention meaning becoming a butt of their jokes.

Unfortunately,

That’s where we found our seats when we got there,

And with the first comedian …

I was the designated butt.

Nothing bad,

Really.

I was the punchline of a “Do the curtains match the carpet?” joke,

And a running gag of how I allegedly was always looking at his crotch,

As if hypnotized.

Now being the attention whore that I am …

Of course I loved the attention,

And played along good naturedly.

It was a good night of comedians …

Everyone taking the stage was hilarious.

Very, very good,

Anyways,

After the show I started gabbing with the comedian that was joking about me being hypnotized by his crotch,

And he thanked me for being fun about it.

To commemorate the event,

I took a picture of us.

I know !!!

What a surprise !!!

Me … taking a picture.

Go figure.

Anyways,

He asked to see it,

So I showed him.

It was a good picture …

And he asked me to text it to him.

So I did.

And as soon as I hit SEND …

I realized I was a moron.

Dammit.

He was a good guy and all,

Seemed very nice.

But I totally suspected I was now going to get a call later that night.

Seriously,

What guy really wants a picture texted to him?

No guy does,

He was just feigning the want to capture the digits,

So I thought.

Turns out I was right …

As I received more than one call from him later that night.

But …

I’m a musician groupie,

Not a comedian groupie,

So oddly,

I never heard the phone ring.

Oh well …

Lesson learned.

I hope you don’t fall for the “Oh, text me that picture” line unless you want the person to whom you’re sending the picture,

To also have your digits.

    Something tells me he didn’t tumble to your function. :-)
    I enjoy lobbing snarky comments at comedians, but it’s long time since a randy young comedians might want my number.

    You are a attention whore darling. I remember this club in Saugatuck and I was on stage doing my comedy act and this bleached blond chick actually got on stage and wrestled the mic from me. Hmmm… I wonder who that was! LOVE YOU! Miss Daisy

    At the risk of a Jedi sacrilege, Amy’s next costume should be Kara Thrace.

  13. Comment by Amy on 10 December 2007:

    Holy Krap Miss Daisy !!! I remember that !!! LOL Though if I’m not mistaken, I think my “Hi, My name’s Amy, and I’m an alcoholic … Oh wait, wrong group.” opening joke went over quite well … there definitely was a healthy round of sympathy laughs !!! :)
    Love you too ! Hope to see you sometime soon !!! Visit us up here for the holidays … we’ll round up some of the old band and play those familiar tunes … Jaegar Bomb - Jaegar Bomb — rah rah rah ! :)

    What is tso???

  17. Comment by Amy on 11 December 2007:

    Yo chica !!! It’s the Tran-Siberian Orchestra. It was a pretty kewl concert … I thought the first half was a little slow in spots, but the second half definitely rocked. Well worth the price of admission. Long show too … darn near three hours with no break.

  18. Comment by Jenny on 11 December 2007:

    Amy sometimes i am so dull…. i have a few of their cd’s they are FANTASTIC!! i should go see them …. i am glad you enjoyed!!!

  19. Comment by Amy on 11 December 2007:

    It was a fun concert. I bought a ticket moments before it started and went by myself. My only advice … near the end of the first half when the narrator says they are “nearing the end of the story”, break for the restroom … because those guys work hard and don’t take a real break, but if you’ve had any beers in advance of or during the show … you’re going to need a break, and you definitely don’t want to miss any of the second half of the show ! :)

  20. Comment by Jenny on 12 December 2007:
