I Blow Bubbles

Janet Kuypers (10/24/098)


Imagine planning your life around
something you have no control over

Imagine losing your job because
they didn’t like your performance

okay, imagine this: Imagine wanting
to blow bubbles whenever you

worked at the Champagne factory
imagine playing instead of working

Imagine you were working at Dom
Perignon, near the factory, and

if you didn’t care about your job you
just wanted to drink so you looked

like a drunk whenever the executives
checked you out. Imagine when

someone asked you what you do,
you answered by saying with an

ethnic drawl, “I make bubbles.”
Or maybe it was “I blow bubbles,”

or even “I bleed bubbles.” You get
the idea. Are you supposed to

sound like you know what you’re
talking about when you can only

talk about blowing bubbles while you are
drunk drinking champagne while you’re

at work? That’s something to think
about. Do you drink the free champagne?
