On Saturday night we went to a party with some of my work friends. One of the guys, David, was pretty wasted from the minute we got there. He had been joking with me on Friday that if I needed my wisdom tooth pulled I might choke and drown on my own blood during the surgery. So when I saw him Saturday, I played like I had to have all four out on Monday and was gonna be off work for a week to recover. Hard to tell if he bought it since he was drunk.
Yesterday I didn’t go over to his side of the building so he might think I was actually out of the office.
This afternoon I went over there. I was talking to another guy when David walked up to us. I made my tongue push out the side of my mouth and talked all funny and said I was in a lot of pain. He started making fun of me. We all kept up the charade. Finally, in dramatic fashion, I left and went back to my desk. He followed me over and eventually apologized. It really wasn't a good act - I'm so surprised he bought it. Wonder how long I should keep it up? We're trying to find some fake blood for tomorrow.
It's been a bright spot in my otherwise pretty crappy day.
