wanted to be someone else

"supreme pizza."

"i'd like to place an order for pick-up."

"ok."

"i'd like one pizza, half meatball, half mushroom."

"dgfjgdfjgsd?"

"excuse me?"

"do you want the pizza round or square?"

"oh...round please."

"ok, that's one round pizza, half meatball, half mushroom."

"yes, please."

"what's the name?"

"henry."

that's the cool thing about placing orders - you can give them any name you want. next time i think i'll use vada sultenfuss or whatever the "my girl" character's name was. that oughta throw someone for a loop.

patrick and i leave together to get the pizza. i refer to us as "team henry" throughout the journey. when we arrive at supreme pizza, patrick does the talking as he's the one who has enough cash to cover the order. hearing him respond to "can i help you?" with "uh, order for henry" definitely makes me want to burst out laughing. i tell him as much as we walk back to the "team henry" mobile. "i know, man. i almost couldn't bring myself to say it," he replies. what a good sport.
