Hey, Shane and Sam have to be like. Somewhat familiar with each other right? They live with the only kids in town, and they work together. Doesn't mean they're friends, definitely not, but maybe they're a little nice to each other? Sam sees how tired and depressed Shane seems at the Saloon and decides he'll invite Jas (and Shane) over for dinner next week, which Jodi never minds
Shane and Jas get to their house a little early. Of course the kids want to play in Vince's room, so Shane awkwardly stands around. He offers to help Jodi with dinner but oh no, it's basically done and Sam already set the table, sit on the couch and relax. Sam sits in the chair and turns on the TV. Shane used to play Gridball, maybe there's a game on! They watch the game for a bit, and even though Sam doesn't really get the rules he seems to be rooting for the right team.
During an ad break, Sam brings up when Morris accidentally elbowed a displat when he was walking fast and sent the cans flying everywhere. He's laughing like it's the funniest thing in the world and Shane...well, Shane cracks a smile, chuckles a bit. And Sam is like yes! I am winning at friendly conversation!
Dinner goes well, the casserole is made with fresh fish from Willy, Shane sticks with water, denies the offer of a disgusting Joja Cola. Vincent dominates the conversation, talking about what they've been learning from Miss Penny, but Jas joins in sometimes to add whatever Vince forgot. Dessert is ice cream, followed by 35 minutes of Vince and Jas trying to convince the adults to let them sleepover. But it's a school night and Jas needs to get home.
At the door Sam gives Shane a wide smile and says to get home safe, as if it's a joke. Which it kind of is. The ranch is a 15 minute walk away, they can practically see it poking through the trees. Shane nods, picking up a Jas who's falling asleep on her feet, and says he'll see him at work.
And theyre not friends, Shane is 5 or 6 years older than Sam and they don't have much in common, but at least there will be a somewhat friendly face at work tomorrow
Hmm I want to apply a theme even though i never search through someone's blog through url.tumblr.com (I like looking through tags and comments)
I need to change my blog colors also
it is so, so, so funny to interact with people that don't super know embroidery, who try to pick out which of my projects is more... skilled? or whatever. one time i had someone tell me to my face that my linework wasn't impressive and anyone could do backstitches, and they had learned how to backstitch last week so they could say this. someone else I've been teaching how to sew here and there told me that some patches I made recently and haven't put on this blog yet were true skill and above their skill level - they wanted to start with something easy! like massive block lettering on a stretchy tshirt!
