'Kate, have you ever skydived before?'
'
Ummmmmm, nope. Not in recent memory.'
(Never have, never will). 'Would you like to do one?'
'
Ummmmmm, no I don't really think so.'(
Are you out of your mind? Contemplating imminent death for twenty minutes isn't my idea of fun.)'But you can have one - for free.'
'
Ummmmmm, well,
umm, thank you, and that's very kind of you
buuttttttt, nope, I'm okay.'
(The only way I am getting out a plane at five thousand feet is if I am you push me out with a gun at my head).'I really think you should, it would help you understand the experience.'
'That's okay, I have a pretty good imagination.' (
I don't think you have quite grasped the fact that I'm just a big pussy girl's blouse. You are talking to possibly one of the few people on the planet who has turned down the offer of at least five bungee jumps.)Sigh.
Sometimes my job is really wasted on me.
