I promised I would. And i am nothing if not reliable to my promises. Except if they are promises to Jon. Screw him. He gave me a cold.
An associate in the camp, lets call him.......Pete, is a 44 yr old professional waiter. This is all he has ever done. He lives with a bunch of college students with his dog.
Here is a typical conversation between Pete and his dog.
"who's the most beautiful girl in the whole world?" proceeds to open mouth kiss the dog
"Aren't you gorgeous! You are so pretty! You are the prettiest girl ever! Who loves you? I do! I love you princess" lets dog kiss him back
"are you hungry? I made you some din-din" puts down an omelet with ham, onions and peppers, hashbrowns, 3 pieces of bacon and 2 pieces of sausage.
With a piece of toast on the side.
And some orange juice in a bowl.
Pete has a girlfriend. Oh yes, I was shocked too. In fact I was so shocked I blurted out "I thought you were gay!"
Pete, very offended says:
"Oh god no! I am not gay at all! I have a great girlfriend"
"Oh yeah? What does she do?"
"She starts college in September."
"Hey! Good for her! It must be hard starting college so late"
Pete gets a puzzled look on his face and says:
"She's not starting late. She's 19"
Which makes complete sense that he looked so puzzled. That i assumed this creepy 44 yr old man would be dating someone old enough to vote in the Unites States. How dare I?
A man who loves his dog this much is a catch! Any woman would be lucky to date a 44 yr old career waiter who lives with 3 college boys. This is the best part:
-he is 2 years older than her dad
Now unfortunatley I cant really demean this guy too much. (Though i did when i was there. "Oh I took a children's lit class when i was at college. We did a whole section on Dr. Seuss. Hey Pete! Your girlfriend would do great in that. Didnt she stop reading those like 2 weeks ago?")
I blame her parents.
How screwed up do you have to be as a father to raise a daughter that would date a man that much older? I shall put my all of my father's wives in this category (including my mom). What the hell? Is Freud right? Girls want to marry their fathers? Did he mean this literally?
Pete is overall a pretty okay guy. I personally didnt get along well with him, but that doesnt say much as i dont get along with just about anyone. There were some raised eyebrows as to how he interacts with his dog. A lot of the people there found it.........odd. And yes, if you were wondering, he does put sweaters on his dog in the winter. His sweaters. She is a big dog.
