n.e.i.t. because i’m contrary
I know Thursdays are usually reserved for Too Much Information Thursdays hosted by LiLu. Â But today I just can’t think of a story for that would entertain you enough to actually write about, so I’m changing it up. Â No offense to LiLu, because she’s awesome and has Oprah-like power in the blagonets, and I’m sure I’ll be back with more TMIT’s at a later time.
Today, I am going to tell you a NEIT story. Â That’s right, a “Not Enough Information Thursday” story.
This story takes place when I was younger. Â My family was on a vacation to someplace. Â We had dinner at a restaurant. One of my sisters had food. Â In the food, we found a foreign object. Â Someone complained to someone who worked there. Â Then another someone gave us some free food. Â It was gross but we were happy. Â The restaurant went out of business much later.
The next day we kept driving. Â We drove through some mountains where some hillfolk lived. Â They kept trying to sell us things. Â Eventually we made it to a beach somewhere. Â There were a lot of people at the beach, including a lot of the hillfolk. Â They said words that weren’t really words and I couldn’t understand them.
Then we went to this other city with big buildings. Â We saw this guy who worked in government but used to be a singer. Â Oh, and it was hot.
There’s my story of the time we did things. Â It’s surprising hard to tell any sort of story without details. Bonus points will be awarded if you can guess the guy we saw. Â Mad bonus points if you can guess what the hillfolk were trying to sell us, the name of the restaurant, or what the foreign object was; in this case, you are probably psychic.
