Devious Plans

Very frequently, my friends and I devise our devious plans to execute our deranged but fun ideas. We just so happened to have two of these instances in one day.
Yesterday, on my SECOND trip to Sams Club that day, Elizabeth called me and said she has a devious ploy to make it so that me and Corey can eat lunch together even though he has closed lunch and goes to a school on the other side of town. You see, Elizabeth's mom actually works for the school both she and Corey attend, and she has many connections. There is a restaurant on grounds that supports the Culinary Arts class (which Liz is in) and this restaurant is open to the public... and I am public! So, Lizzie's mom, in all of her devious glory, is going to pull Corey from his lunch and get him the proper permission to eat with me at the restaurant! All of this came about because Liz's mom wanted to eat lunch with Elizabeth and Liz took it from there!
Last night at my weekly youth group, my pastor announced our next party. Elizabeth, sitting next to me, devised a devious plan to get a bunch of people to come. Pastor Chris said that the price was $8 and if you brought one guest who had never been to our youth group before than you have to only pay $4 as well as your guest. With two guests you all get in free! So, Elizabeth's devious plan involved getting all of the names of all the students who get emailed the announcements since they aren't actually at the High School to hear them, like me and Elizabeth. There are about twenty or so name, Juniors and Seniors, on this list. And all we have to do is scan in our party invite! Then we can get a bunch of people there and get in free. Now it's only a matter of actually doing it.
So devious.

I'm putting on my "Mom Hat" and have to warn you to be careful.

You've got a great group of friends at the church. It's a fun environment and a safe group to be around.

If you send out invitations to "everybody," you may end up with folks who can wreak havoc with the retreat and cause problems for everyone.

While I'm (ahem) all for devious plans, it'd be better to pick and choose your invitees.

Don't you just HATE it when I act like a mom?

I think your Mom's going to approve.

Hah! I just read her response above and see she approves, but with conditions.

isn't deranged a little srong i think of sick animals that have rabies (i don't know why??!). I like phsycotic (yes, i know my spelling stinks!)better.
oh and your mother might be right, sorry i guess we should change our scheme (yes! i found a word! i love synonyms!!)

Beth said...

Yeah, I am now doubting our mailing plan. But we shall figure something out.

Unhinged said...

Yanno, I'm 23% sure God is frowning upon this entry and the scheme-age behind it...

You know what you need, PP? One of those hokey email chain letter things. Only instead of responding via email, you should make a blog entry of it. You know the ones I mean, right? The emails that ask you 20 questions about what you ate for breakfast, how many squares of tee-pee you use, who'd be YOU in a movie? And then! Then the email threatens you with bad luck and miracle take-back-age if you don't send it to 150 people within the next 30 minutes.

(I can't believe my mom, Oogie, sends me this stuff. She ought to know better. I thought she was SMART, dang it...after all, the woman had this really, really, really inconvenient sixth sense when I wanted to do something I shouldn't have...)

Anyway.

If you're hurting for a blog post in the future, please answer these questions (because if you don't, all kinds of horrid things will happen to you):

1. Which movie character is most like you?
2. Which TV character is most like you?
3. Which literary character is most like you?
4. Which song describes you?
5. Which animal is most like you?


There. My job is done. Pass the potatoes.
