Cousins

sarahhhh. says:
so do you know what you want to do after college?
Tyne says:
travel Europe, get married, and have a schwack of children
sarahhhh. says:
lol me too, except not quite a schwack
Tyne says:
for jobs I think I'd like to be a blacksmith or a postmistress, that's what I want to do, because they told me there's no such work as old school blacksmithing anymore
sarahhhh. says:
you should become amish
Tyne says:
no I like my stereo and computer too much, as bad as that is
sarahhhh. says:
you could be amish and secretly have a discman and computer in you basement and still be a blacksmith
Tyne says:
haha nope they'd catch me, they wouldn't let me be a postmistress and a blacksmith
sarahhhh. says:
you could be a postsmith, or a blackmistress
Tyne says:
HAHAHAHAHA I like that
sarahhhh. says:
me too
sarahhhh. says:
why dont you just be a writer
Tyne says:
because they don't accept that when they ask you what you want to be next year
sarahhhh. says:
oh
Tyne says:
they want you to go to school and pay lots of money and use those brains that got you those good marks
sarahhhh. says:
ya, i want to go and work as a bosun's mate on salts but i tell everyone that i'm going into music
for the same reasons
Tyne says:
work on a boat the rest of your life... that wouldn't be so bad
sarahhhh. says:
i know
sarahhhh. says:
getting paid to sail is the most ridonkulous thing i have ever heard i dont care that the pay is really bad...i could go get a degree and make lots of money and retire young and then once i was retired i could go and pay other people to let me sail or i could get a job sailing and then i would never need to retire
Tyne says:
and it wouldn't really matter what the pay was
sarahhhh. says:
nope
Tyne says:
that's what I want, a job that I love and then the pay doesn't matter and screw everyone who wants me to go to university
sarahhhh. says:
yeah...i feel bad cuz i have really good grades and i know i should go to college. but i don't want to take anything academic...i'm already so sick of school. the only thing i would do i take theatre at mount royal college cuz then i could be in shakespeare in the park
Tyne says:
grades used to matter but now they don't and it frustrates the career people
sarahhhh. says:
basically i'm making my backup plan with all the career people. but they don't know that
Tyne says:
I just told her I wanted to be a blacksmith, that frustrates the heck out of them
sarahhhh. says:
tell them you want to be a shepherd
sarahhhh. says:
or a turd surgeon
Tyne says:
what's a turd surgeon?
sarahhhh. says:
i dont know, just tell them you want to be one. it's someone who does surgery on turds.
Tyne says:
I'll tell her I want to be a English town in the 1400s
sarahhhh. says:
or a scarf or a potato
Tyne says:
haha or a politician
sarahhhh. says:
or a bumblebee
sarahhhh. says:
haha you should go to my school. we have a huge focus on the whole career planning thing
Tyne says:
I'd screw them over so bad
sarahhhh. says:
we had this huge survey thing on what career would best suit you and i almost asked my teacher why "hooker" wasn't one of the options
sarahhhh. says:
or ninja
Tyne says:
you should've
sarahhhh. says:
mrs. topp... i wanna be a hooker when i grow up!
Tyne says:
THAT would be a good thing to say
sarahhhh. says:
or i'll tell her i want to sell wacky tobacky for a living, and hippy lettuce
Tyne says:
haha just screw with her head
sarahhhh. says:
those are my two favourite names for pot
Tyne says:
haha you should send me yarba in the mail
sarahhhh. says:
they might be a little suspicious but if you're the postsmith then who will know?
Tyne says:
yeah it kind of looks like marijuana I think but it's definitely not
Tyne says:
I can't be the postsmith in Calgary AND Saskatoon
sarahhhh. says:
i wonder if you could make tea out of marijuana
Tyne says:
never tried but you can out of yarba and that's just as good
Tyne says:
"teacher, can I be an alarm clock for a living?"
sarahhhh. says:
or a parasite on the back of a vacuum cleaner
Tyne says:
or the cotton in the vitamin C jars
sarahhhh. says:
or that line of dust that you never can seem to sweep up
Tyne says:
or the left cup of a diamond brassiere
sarahhhh. says:
or a large wooden badger
Tyne says:
that's it
Tyne says:
I will be a large wooden badger for the rest of my life
sarahhhh. says:
with a schwack of children ...large, wooden children
Tyne says:
and a postsmith in the yard
sarahhhh. says:
and a blackmistress for a neighbour
Tyne says:
and I will marry a *******
sarahhhh. says:
and drink yarba
Tyne says:
and be very very happy
sarahhhh. says:
and eat inverted toilet plungers
Tyne says:
no that's creepy
sarahhhh. says:
fine. you don't have to invert them. and you can take the handles off too if you really must.
Tyne says:
I must
sarahhhh. says:
"the snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off"
Tyne says:
then do they frown back?
sarahhhh. says:
no.
sarahhhh. says:
they look...
sarahhhh. says:
perturbed.
sarahhhh. says:
but that is different than frowning
Tyne says:
perhaps they are upset that you have bitten their head off
sarahhhh. says:
perhaps, but they are most upset by the difficulty they are experiencing in expressing their emotions without a head.
Tyne says:
ahh
sarahhhh. says:
and you could have a pet snorkelflorbin named Glurge.
sarahhhh. says:
anytime you need career counselling...
sarahhhh. says:
