Well, my llama died...

Today before one of my classes began, I was chit-chatting with the people sitting around me. When someone asked if anything exciting had happened in the last few days, this quiet kid said slowly, "Well, my llama died."

I felt bad that no one laughed at his joke, so I giggled and said, "Oh, really?"

And he looked at me. Sadly. "Well, he was really old..."

[5 second silence]

Me: "Oh my gosh. You're serious?"

Him: sad nod. "Yea."

Me. "Oh! Uhhh...I'm sorry."

AWKWARDEST SILENCE IN THE HISTORY OF AWKWARD SILENCES.

That is all.

Hi. I'm Lisavette Barden King. I just created my very first blog and I have no idea what to put or how to do it so I've been reading yours to get a sense of what a "blog" is, ha ha. My family keeps telling me to start one so I'm giving it a go. Hope you don't mind me reading. :)I'm out of college now, but it's fun to read about your classes. Reminds me of mine.
