The Best Joke

"Am I the only girl who drinks books and reads tea?"

"No."

This joke took me a half an hour.

You'd think, since I had all that time to think it through - rearranging books, testing lighting, making tea, fixating the ten-second-timer camera on the music stand - I would've figured out that it wasn't funny.

But no.

No.



I am still funny.



(And I still haven't gotten around to finishing the book.)
