dreams of mount everest
December 17, 2006 11:09 pmMy friends like to keep my dreams within reasonable reaching distance and will remind me if they soar a bit too far.
Friend. “One of the Oregon climbers has been found dead.”
Me. 
Friend. “Please don’t pick up mountain climbing as a hobby, okay?”
Me. “So I can’t ever climb Everest?”
Friend. “No.”
Me. “Dreams… destroyed…”
Friend. “Aaaw.”
Me. “It would just be for the view!”
Friend. “Buy National Geographic.”
…and you know, a subscription to National Geographic is way cheaper than an Everest expedition.
Brilliant!
