delayed gratification is just as good as instant gratification

The Girlfriend:
I want instant gratification all the time

Actually, [Friend] is looking to sell her car.

The girlfriend:
She paid about three grand for it a couple of years ago.

The Girlfriend:
Did you know the guy that wrote Glee was [our friend X]'s friend at school in America?
-
The Girlfriend:
And he was in the glee club there
-
The Girlfriend:
And the show is quite strongly based on their experiences at school

-
Me:
X was in Glee club?

Yup

Me:
Was X ever in a wheelchair?!

The Girlfriend:
He always used to tell [his wife] stories about it
-
The Girlfriend:
How it was for all the geeks and then the hockey team joined and a few cheerleaders
-
The Girlfriend:
And they all became really popular
-
The Girlfriend:
Can you imagine it?!
-
Me:
Sounds like some kind of fantasy you'd only see on TV...
-
Note:
This all came about by me showing her http://gleeky.tumblr.com and all the other Glee tumblrs it links to. She's in her element!
