So I mentioned that I adventured to Costco last week, but if you aren't caught up and don't know that, well now you do.
What I didn't mention is that Michael and I are geniuses. And rockstars.
Maybe a combination of both? Rockiuses? Genistars!?
Anyway, we stumbled upon the most adorable blankets ever. And we didn't really care if they were for grown men or not.
In fact, we like them so much we tried to figure out how to justify buying 5 of them for everyone in our dressing room, since we really got inspired when we saw the blue bear and realized it was PERFECT for Adam's birthday.
And despite our debates and reservations, we got them all. And boy do we rock.
See, we gave one to Chris for some comfort while he was home sick this week (good thinking). Yet sadly, he's not pictured as his adorable little ducky self. I haven't even seen it, to be honest.
But the coup de grace was surprising Adam at midnight for his birthday last night, fully decked out in ours and surprising him with his!
I may have honestly taken the character impersonation too far. But heck, I can't help it if I'm KAWAI (cute!) in my outfit.
I may have even donned Michael's hungry hungry hippo (remember that amazing game?) and re-enacted my animal study from Alexander Technique. See, we were assigned animals whose nature is the opposite of our own, and I studied hippos at the zoo for about 2 hours one day. Then I had to go into class and move and make the sound of a hippo and occupy the physical space of one with my body. If I might say so myself, it was some of my best class work.
Last night's embodiment wasn't quite as stellar.
Yet Adam was so thrilled he decided his bear would be a gangster!
And here you can see the E-Village zoo come to life. If only our ducky could have completed the dressing room birthday party!
So it was quite the happy birthday to Adam, but the most pertinent observation to note is that I am having so much FUN with my dressing roommates.
And for the first time in my life, I'm think I'm closer with a far larger majority of boys than girls on this contract. In fact, one might suspect it's Boys vs. Girls around the BBB, even though it's not. It just happens to be that the girls keep to themselves and really own their space, and we do so as well.
And now we have the animal cuddlies to prove it!
Snuggie, eat your heart out!
