Prince Avalanche Page #3
Yeah.
It's so hard.
Mm-Hmm.
It took me so long.
I mean... [SCOFFS]...
It took me a great length
of time to change the tire,
So, like, I didn't even get home
until, like, midnight or something.
And I was covered
in grease and very gross,
So I went into my kitchen
and had some salsa
And had a beer, and then...
the next thing you know...
I'm fast asleep.
Well, that's... That's your
body telling you it's exhausted.
It's weird.
No, it's not that weird.
I mean, you've been out here
working hard for almost 5 days.
No, you haven't even heard
the weird part, dummy.
Ok.
the middle of my kitchen,
And I was standing straight up.
That's weird.
Yeah.
And I didn't wake up until my mom
and dad woke up the next morning
And came down for breakfast
and had snacks.
And they just saw you standing
there, sleeping? Yeah.
So I didn't get a party Friday night,
which was really disappointing,
But I figured, hey, I'll be in
good shape for Saturday night.
So I hit the bars with some buddies
and we had some cocktails.
Right away, I saw two chicks who
would totally have partied with me.
I'd actually... I'd actually
screwed one of them before,
Which was ok, but she had
these fat little legs,
Which I found a bit bizarre.
And whenever we would make love, she
would always flap her arms up and down
Like she was trying to fly.
Maybe she was trying to escape.
No, no, no, no.
Orgasms.
She just gets excited.
[CHUCKLES] Fantastic.
[SIGHS]
And so I'd already decided I
was going to sleep with Peggy.
I mean Maggie.
Mm-Hmm?
Or someone of that quality.
So we go to the bub club,
and then she shows up.
Maggie?
Yeah.
Maggie Johnston...
Looking so foxy, as always...
And I'm sensing that she's
really into me as well.
You know, so we go, we hit the dance
floor, and it's lining up nice
Because... we're both
really good dancers.
And I have to dance twice as hard to
compete with these younger guys, you know?
I mean, I'm not as fresh as I used
to be, now that I'm all fat and old.
Right.
And then it's closing
time, and I ask her
To come home with me, but she
really wants to keep partying.
And there's an after party at her
friend's mom's house, so I'm like, ok,
You know, because I don't really
have a choice if I want to score.
You know.
And then I get this feeling
like it's not gonna happen.
I don't know what it is.
I mean...
I'm not saying that I'm psychic or
anything, but it's just sometimes
I feel like I can...
do you know what I mean?
Intuition.
Yeah. It's just that sometimes
I know what's gonna happen.
Yeah.
So we go to the party,
and we start laughing
And I take her into
this bedroom
[SIGHS] And I can tell
how horny she is for me.
And then, all of a sudden,
she asks me to stop.
You know, she got paranoid or
something, like she heard something.
I get her to promise me that she'll
come home with me after the party.
Well, you know, obviously.
And she says yeah.
You know, she says ok.
So then we leave the bedroom,
And we walk smack into kip.
Your friend kip?
No.
My ex-Friend kip.
Ah. I see.
And even before
I realize who it is,
He's already furious
at seeing us together...
[SIGHS]
And he punches me in the face.
Oh.
[CHUCKLES] He nailed you. Yeah.
So she starts yelling
at him and crying,
Telling him how sorry she is,
And I'm just sitting there,
you know, holding my face.
And then they leave and she's
completely hysterical,
But she leaves with kip
and doesn't say good-Bye.
You know, and he's pissed.
I mean, he's freaking out.
He really shouldn't drink.
Really?
Yeah.
You know?
He's a complete jerk
when he drinks.
So, with them gone,
You know, I figure I'll just see
if I can hook up with the one
With the fat little legs,
but...
you know, she's French-Kissing
on the floor with somebody
That... I don't even know.
Then yesterday was Sunday,
so no parties
because everyone's at church.
[SIGHS]
Don't worry about it.
You know, there's plenty
of other weekends.
[VOICE CRACKS] Yeah.
Maggie Johnston sounds
a little bit confused.
You shouldn't let these
girls mess with your head.
[SNIFFLES, SIGHS]
Yeah, I know.
I'm pretty optimistic
about next weekend, though.
Oh, yeah? Yeah. [SNIFFLES]
I'm going to this
regional beauty pageant.
It's like miss America,
but... [SNIFFLES]...
Way before miss America, but
that kind of thing, you know.
It's, like, for girls who... might
want to be miss America
And might be
miss America later.
Oh, whoa.
Feeling pretty good
about your chances?
Yeah. I've got, like, an 80% to
90% success rate at these things.
A lot of the women get their hormones
in a tizzy at competitive events and...
when you get a...
well, then, even the losers
are like winners to me.
It's really cool.
Why, somehow, in your
mind, you truly do
Perceive yourself as a
gentleman, don't you?
Huh?
[SPEAKS GERMAN]
[TRUCK CREAKING]
Sure you don't want
any hot fish?
No.
Think I'm still hung-Over
from the weekend.
Did you take an antacid?
Ahem. Yeah.
Everything ok?
Yeah.
Really don't feel like
being out here right now.
And I don't mean
to be rude, but...
I don't feel
like socializations.
You know what?
Why don't you take
my rod and reel, go out,
See if you can't catch us
a couple of fish?
Naw.
No, do it.
You'll feel better.
I promise, it's good
for the soul.
Nah.
Do it.
You can borrow my rod,
my reel, my net.
You can borrow my waders,
borrow my swim trunks.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Ok.
What's this?
Oh, I forgot.
That's your mail.
You got a letter from Madison.
What?
Yeah, I... I put it
in your bag.
Aren't you gonna take the rod?
No, that's ok.
[RAINFALL]
[DISTANT THUNDER]
Aah! Oh!
[PANTING]
[BIRDS CHIRPING] Alvin?
[SHOUTS] Alvin!
Alvin?
[CLANG]
Hey, buddy.
Hey.
Glad to see you're still here.
I've been thinking
about you guys.
Cool.
Good to see you.
Hallelujah done quit on me.
Bad day.
[MUSIC STOPS] Get out of here.
[GRUNTS]
Here you go.
Oh, thanks.
Well, any idea
How many lines you
painted down there?
Oh. Well, I have no idea.
You covered the whole
asphalt section
Till the gravel begins.
That's 8.2 miles.
And that's an average
Of 4.6 meters
between each line
And about 5 meters
long on each line.
Now, how much that make?
I have no idea.
You mean you don't know?
Well, hold on.
[WATCH BEEPS] How many
miles did you say?
8.2.
Divided by 4.6.
You said there's a
thousand meters in a mile.
Or, no, no. A thousand...
A thousand feet in a meter.
I have 854.888.
That's amazing.
And I calculate 855.
That's amazing!
Drink up!
That is real good.
So, where was that lady going?
What lady?
The lady that got out of
Well, now, look here, buddy,
If there'd have been
