The damage is already done...

“It’s only bad if you get caught.”

Today I figured out why I am always the last to know...

I have a big mouth. I can’t keep a secret to save my life. Not one of my best qualities unfortunately. If I was being interrogated, somebody’s going to jail.

So a guy friend of mine confessed his fantasy love for a local artist during a live venue a few weeks back. After the show, I managed to get a picture of them together, even though he was (shy) reluctant. He got mad at me for introducing them, but disappeared and I caught him later, bragging about the picture to some of our other friends. Calling miss fantasy artist his, “future wifey.”

So, fast forward a couple weeks later and I go to this launch party in the city for my girl’s fashion show. In the show modeling some of the clothes is none other than miss fantasy artist herself! After the show she is by herself backstage, so I go up to her and open my big mouth.

(Ms P is not a matchmaker, matchmaker I am not). I ask her if she remembers me. She does! (Yay I knew I was unforgettable).

So anyway, I remind her about my boy. And what do you know she’s single, thinks he’s cute and even better, is interested. If I asked for her number she might of thought it was a ploy for me to get down her pants. So instead I told her I would forward her his MySpace. Which I did, but here is where I f*ck up.

That last move should have been it on my part. I should have let the cards fall and peaced the f*ck out. But oh no! I sent him a msg saying that “I know you are going to love me and hate me all at the same time,” which he responded by saying, “what did you do, because if it has anything to do with fantasy artist, I’m pissed!” (Still shy).

Sometimes I feel like Steve Urkel from “Family Matters. Always f*cking sh*t up.

“Did I do that?” Yes you did!

(Just my luck they will probably both read this blog and plot to have me destroyed). Oh well, it’s the thought that counts. Hopefully we can all laugh about this later. We’ll see what happens…

Is this "local artist" by any chance a stripper? If so, I want her number NOW.

Pissed? Pissed? I would be thanking my lucky stars and buying you DINNER if you hooked me up with "future wifey" and she actually had an interest.

Your problem isn't loose lips. Naw, that ain't it. It's just that you like to insinuate yourself into spaces your weren't necessarily invited into. You proly had good intentions, but still...Ultimately a man's gotta man up in situations like that (when he eyes his perfect mate) regardless of how shy he is. A second opportunity is not guaranteed.

yesssss!... i know the whole story...hahahaa... this cracked me up... but the funnyness faded as i thought about how real this shit was...

because i wonder if i have ever told, said or WROTE... (i repeat WROTE!) anything that u might have been inclined to pass along...

hmmmmm... i'll ponder on this 1 as i fall asleep!

(i liken u the way u are so dont change... u still my homegirl)

UBERMOUTH said...

How many times have you see RHPS? I have been about 50 ( in the 80's) loved Tim Curry. So, Can I have the lips?
Ty for voting for Tan.Some girl named Sara was nice enough to put a link to his pic.
P.S I love your stories about your mum and your upbringing- you really should do more of them!

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

G- Did you toss that last part in about me still being your homegirl so I would tell you the truth? All I can say is YES she is my biggest fan…

Uber- I remember watching that movie when I was a little kid, it was one of my mother’s favorites. I actually had a recent funny story about her I will work on that. Now let me go vote!

LOL @ plot to have you destroyed.

Well, it was actually very cool of you to do that.

My best friend is a lot like the best friend of the guy on Extras. If you were like that, he would have cause to complain.

If I mention I think a girl she knows is cute, it will not be long before I can never be comfortable in her presence ever, ever again.

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

Nupe-anything for my boy…

Mister u- yeah I think I’m that bad, sounds about right

You had good intentions. So one cant be to upset. plus, she is really hot. It's just no man wants to be "hooked up" sounds so adolecent.. Women like men who don't need help talking to them. But all is well we've been talking back and forth on Myspace. I she seems interested but she could just be treating me like a charity case beacuse she knows the whole situation. Well I'm gonna see where it takes me. Maybe she is "future wifey" MAYBE.....then again maybe it wont go past a few myspace messages...who knows

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

If anon is who I think it is, I noticed you were on MS a lot lately…hmmm. No charity case, she is somewhat well-known so it is harder to get at girls like that.

And yes it was best intentions, helping a friend in need. Yes we will see…

oh, but being the wingwoman is so much fun. that should get you out of a hideous bridesmaid dress, if it comes to that. your friend should be thankful. and perhaps even fantasy artist.
