In honor of my soon-to-be former household, I'd like to recount some of the memories I have of various things that have gone on there over the past almost four years. Most will probably be pleasant, though who knows what I might remember? Right now, I'm just gonna let the creative process flow and see what my mind brings to the forefront.
Kristine was my roommate Bryant's personal organizer for several years. She would often make house calls to our place and assist Bryant for a couple hours with organizing his stuff. She was a very nice and friendly woman, and I always enjoyed whenever she came over. Bryant kept Kristine laughing constantly, and I think that (besides the fact that Bryant was paying her) kept her coming over to the house. Also, the more she came over, the more she got to know myself, Vince and Rob. I'd like to think she came to like us all very much, and we all enjoyed talking to her whenever she came over.
One time, Bryant, Vince and myself decided to play a joke on her. Vince does an eerily accurate impersonation of a girl's voice, and we were going to trick Kristine into thinking Bryant had a female friend in town who wanted to meet Kristine to enlist her services. So we got Kristine downstairs with Bryant and I, and we made up this whole tale about this girl (I think we called her "Stephanie") Bryant knows who wants her help. Of course, Kristine buys it (why wouldn't she?). Eventually, we get "Stephanie" to call Bryant and we have "her" speak to Kristine! Vince's girl voice completely fools Kristine, and when "Stephanie" says she's coming over to meet Kristine, Kristine can't wait to meet her!
Eventually "Stephanie" arrives and says she's coming downstairs to meet Kristine (unbeknownst to her, I'm behind her, recording the whole thing). Imagine her surprise when Vince comes down the stairs and speaks in Stephanie's voice! Needless to say, Bryant, Vince and I were cracking up. Kristine was a good sport about it and had a good laugh too. She was definitely expecting a new female client and instead got Vince talking like a girl.
Yeah, I'd be disappointed too.
