Was just thinking about my friend Aubrey from long ago, again. She’s the only person from those days that I truly miss.
One time, we were on a school trip where someone had ordered a bus that was too small for the number of students. She got on the bus, saw that there was nowhere to sit, looked at me and said, “I’m laying on you.”
I said, “Ok?” So she did just that and said jokingly, “Don’t get any ideas, mister.”
“The only idea I have is that your ass is heavy!” I replied somewhat loudly, making those in the seats around me laugh. Which is, of course, why I said it. She was actually very skinny, even skinnier than me, so I was not making fun of her weight at all.
Back then, I’d do anything for a laugh, and she knew that perfectly well when she sat on me.
