fake

on saturday guy and i were going to a bbq in santa clara and wanted our friend (P) to go with us but he said he couldn't because he had to work. that's when our imaginations went click, CALL IN SICK! we said. HAVE THE SQUIRTS! GET BITTEN BY A SPIDER! "too bad i already used 'my girlfriend's got toxic shock syndrome.'" he said.

finally, we settled on a car accident, a hit and run. the boys made me make the call to his boss. as i spoke into the boss' answering machine i paced in the living room, building up my fake anxiety over the fake accident. the boys hid in the bedroom and emerged with big smiles and hugs when i was done. apparently it sounded authentic. no doubt (P) obsessed over the follow-up story the rest of the weekend and even went so far as to create this...a non-fake injury. (P), how did you do it?
