Last night,
We wolfed down bacon, button-mashed Pokemon Stadium,
and then piled into my car to play Cards Against Humanity at KK's.
Upon arriving at his doorstep,
we soon discovered that nobody wanted to let us in.
So, I unlocked the door and in we went,
only to find the lights on, Twilight Imperium set up,
but nobody there.
Shrugging, we began setting up our game on the floor,
when an idea wormed its way into my head:
Let's hide in the back and surprise them when they return!
We scrambled to gather the cards up and made a mad dash down the hall.
Kristen yelped, "They'll see your car!"
and I nearly fell over myself, rushing outside to hide it from sight.
I charged back up the stairs and threw myself into the storage room,
where we vowed to play our game in complete silence. Yeah right.
Attempting Cards Against Humanity by phone light,
with hands clamped like vices over our mouths,
I believe both my kidneys exploded with suppressed laughter.
Eventually, the others returned.
I've never been good at pranks; I always mess up punch lines.
I get too excited for the finale and stumble over myself, somehow.
And, sure enough, when the moment came to reveal ourselves,
my knees were knocking, and it was all I could do to follow Kristen's lead.
We crept down the hallway, then straightened our spines
and marched right past a very stunned group of T.I. gamers.
I unlocked the door, wrenched it open,
and into the night we fled, all our bottled laughter bursting from our lungs.
