Save the Drama Fo Yo Mamma

We all have peeps in our lives whose lives are steeped in drama. When the question "So, how was your weekend?" at the water cooler Monday morning generally involves maybe dinner out at a nice restaurant, a movie, watching Sunday's game, theirs generally involves a fistfight, two keggers and a donkey show in TJ. Indeed, an exciting life. Sometimes these types seem so exciting that you simply have to date them. And whoo, this is fun! Until suddenly those stories that you were enjoying so much introduce some new characters: the mediator,the one who has to break up the fight with a bouncer because he was short-changed on the $5 cover. Or the one who gets to run out to buy Gatorade and crackers after the 10 shots of tequila followed by IHOP's Rutti Tutti Fresh n' Fruity comes back to visit three hours later. Or the one who has to look up "Bad Boys Bail Bonds" in the Yellow Pages when Drama gets arrested for indecent exposure and public urination. But hey, at least your water cooler stories are a lot more colorful.
