SECRET SANTA 2010: DICKS, DICKS EVERYWHERE

<< < (30/67) > >>

Edith:
Really? I always found the border guards fairly sympathetic when I said I was heading to Toronto to hang out with people I met on the internet...But, then, I guess I look pretty harmless.

What I'm saying is Pink Hair Is Terrifying! (oh noes)

Lines:
You told us not to say that. Especially after Katie and Mai's car got searched for saying that. We were meeting "friends". We just didn't say where those friends were from.

The American border guard really liked you, though.

Papersatan:
"Where do you know these people from?"
"The internet."
"Where on the internet?"
"Um, a site called Questionable Content..."
"You're not here for G20 are you?"
"No."
"Hmmm...." [Selects car for extra searching with reason selected as "G20?"]

Edith:
I have a patheti-sad story about my most recent border crossing.

Mike and I had just broken up, and I was kind of a mess about it. I went up to visit Tania and to get the rest of my crap that I'd left at his house, which I got at the end of the weekend and then had to hit the road and get back in time for work on Monday. I think I left TO around 4pm, which was going to put me home at 1 if I didn't stop at all, but I was already emotionally drained and I knew it was not going to be good.

I came back through Windsor/Detroit and the border guard was a grandfatherly type with a huge mustache.  He asked the purpose of my visit and I burst into tears. Trying to talk over huge snotty sobs, I managed to choke out, "I had to go get my stuff back from my ex-boyfriend." He talked to me for a couple minutes, trying to calm me down, and then when it looked like I was safe to drive again, he let me go through. I only clearly remember one thing he said, which was "You know there are thousands of single guys that live a lot closer to you than Toronto."

Metope:
Supplies for present bought today! I'll make it tomorrow and send it off on Monday. Person, it might be a little late, but it will hopefully be worth it!
