Accio Visa

So my sister and I have just been to see John Carter, and now we're getting us some Awesome Pizza and gelato to take home, just about to pay when whoa!--my credit card flies out of my hands and inserts itself directly into the crevice between two counters.

ME: Drat!

GELATO GIRL: Oh, no! That's never happened before! I'm so sorry!

ME: Not your fault. I think I sort of threw it, there.

GELATO GIRL: *peering into crevice* I see it! But I can't reach it. I'd need something like a pencil, but longer …

ME: *rummaging in bag* Like a magic wand?

GELATO GIRL: There is no need to be sarcastic—

ME: AHA!

GELATO GIRL: —Wait, you meant an actual magic wand?

ME: Yup! Mahogany with a maple handle!

MY SISTER: Why do you even have that?

ME: I like to twirl it when I'm thinking. Here we go …

*I wedge the wand between the counters. With a little jiggling I manage to pop the credit card loose*

MY SISTER: Hooray!

GELATO GIRL: Good thing you had that.

ME: Indeed! Seven years of carrying this thing finally pay off! Oh, they laughed at me—

MY SISTER: And rightly so.

ME: True. But it turns out you never know when a magic wand will come in handy!

… Now if only I could justify my ocarina …

I have a sonic screwdriver in my purse. Just because.

Ha! That is awesome!

What'd you think of John Carter?

Best. Story. Ever.

EPIC WIN! I brought my sonic screwdriver in to work one day when we were having trouble with a set, but I forgot - it doesn't work on wood. ;(

The sight must've been hilarious! How was the movie?

You can always justify an ocarina... with VOLUME.

John Carter was fun, wasn't it? Woola is the best lizard monster dog.

...wait, you twirl a stick to help you think, too? O_o I thought I was the only person who did that.

*giggles madly* We all should have one of those.
