There’s only one person who’d spend my Friday night with me in the way we did. That’s Tiffany. It all started out when we decided to hang out earlier in the day. We can never decide what to do, so we tossed around some ideas like normal. I said I had an idea and wouldn’t tell her.

Ironically, her mom had the same idea and told her. It was going to the carnival. What’s funny is that it wasn’t the same carnival. There is one at White Marsh Mall and there’s one at Eastpoint Mall. I had the White Marsh one in mind while she had the Eastpoint one in mind. So we figured we’d carnival hop like the losers we are!

So we head on down to Eastpoint and the prices per ticket for rides are kind of crazy. $1 = 1 ticket and you get a slightly better discount if you get 20 or 50 tickets, but we weren’t THAT interested. So, we headed up to White Marsh in hopes of a “price guarantee” (which would obviously never happen but it’s still an amusing thought). The prices at White Marsh were similar for 1 ticket ($1) but as you purchased more, the less you received off. In other words, the prices were better at Eastpoint.

Nonetheless, we hung out at the White Marsh carnival and decided to buy 10 tickets (5 for each of us) to ride the gravitron (basically the spaceship that you walk into and it spins you around while the G-force pushes you up the sides of the walls). The couple next to us was drunk, so that was pleasant and inside the ride, it smelled like oil and gasoline. So that was a pleasant combination. Luckily, no one showed up their dinner. What’s more is that the ride attendant never asked us for our tickets, so we essentially just wasted $10 since that’s the only ride we really wanted to get on. Also, the Fun House had KISS-XM on – that amused me considering all of the settlements lately with XM and Clear Channel owned stations (such as KISS-XM).

We decided we might as well use the tickets at a ride where someone is taking them. So we went on the sled like ride that goes around in a circle forward and backward (I forget it’s actual name, though). The guy operating the ride was a bit too into his ACDC and was rocking out in the control booth as we spun around virtually numb because with the cold air and wind blowing against us in this rather cold Spring we’re having here in Maryland, it wasn’t too wonderful.

Next, we headed on over to The Avenue at White Marsh where a guy ran into (read: walked into) Tiffany said “How you doing?” and nearly hugged her, so she was rightfully petrified. But the night gets a bit more weird. We order pizza and head on back to my house and watch On Demand from Comcast. As I’m flipping through the HBO On Demand movies, Tiffany notices “Pee-Wee’s Playhouse Show.” We’re amused and decide to watch it since we grew up with the show, essentially.

That turned out to be a wrong move! The show wasn’t really the typical Pee-Wee’s Playhouse show, but rather a “pushing an adult” flavored show in a dorky kind of way. Pee Wee made some sexual innuendoes with his buddies, had some laughs, and showed so really off of the wall short clips and cartoons. Needless to say, we were both totally lost, confused, and terrified when the show ended 56 minutes later. That being said, if you have On Demand from Comcast and HBO, go under the HBO Movies and select the movie. It’s free and I’d recommend you NEVER pay for it. It’ll certainly confuse you and leave you wondering what the purpose of the last 56 minutes was!!

So overall, an amusing night as normal!
