A Very Gif-y Story
By ModernMelly
In writing my last blog post (moments ago) I had to find some gifs to humorously punctuate my paragraphs. I freaking love gifs (and memes). One of them, a Betty Draper (Mad Men) gif, really got me laughing so I started imagining a story told primarily via gifs from the cast of Mad Men. I give you, the dinner party:
How I imagine it’ll go.
In reality, 30 minutes in to the party, my husband says:
“You’re drunk already?! Nice. Nice Job.”
I Reply:
Him: Okay.
Me: Fine, maybe a little bit.
Him: Well, I guess I’d better catch up then!
Two hours later, me: Who is that redhead you were talking to over there?
Him: It’s my cousin. You’ve met her. Three times
Me: Hmpf. Whatever.
Five Minutes later, Me: Babe! Babe. You’re so cute. I love you. I, like, SO, love you.
Him: Ahh, there’s my little ‘I love you, man” drunk.
Me:
Him:
Him again: And by the way,
Me: Um, sure.
Him:
Us:
Us:
Us.
Sigh. I loved that show…

**Disclaimer: We don’t drive drunk.
***Disclaimer: this was all in good humor, don’t get twisted.
