Elle- (Intro dialogue to audience. Sitting in her bed with a sketch pad.Talking to video camera. Aggressive artsy female with an eccentric nerdy vibe.)
Alot of people remember things differently. I for one draw a picture for each day of my life to remember the events that happened during that specific time. Alot of people don't know this,so don't tell. Pinkie promise okay? (Whispering softly to the camera)
For example: Here (pointing to a picture in the sketchpad) I drew a picture of my neighbor down the hall- Sally. In one hand she is holding delicious dog food & in the other hand she has a stomach shaped shriveled up thumb. Weird right? Well this nifty thing (pointing to sketchpad) reminds me everyday that Sally never remembers to feed her dog Hendrix. Brilliant huh? So every Monday, Wednesday, Friday & Sunday I ask Sally if I can walk her dog while stealthily dropping pieces of kibbles & bits the whole time. I also stop by the river so he can get his h20 on.
I've thought about this for awhile now (tapping head) and it's like I'm helping the world one picture at a time ya know? (speaking with conviction & passion) .I mean let's get serious here. If I had never drawn that picture there would be no Hendrix. (sad face filled with remorse). I feel like we really know each other now that I've shared one story with you. Can you keep another secret? Ya? Ok. (leans in to whisper again) I have short term memory, so I'll probably have to draw a girl talking on the phone to a crazy man shaped like a video camera to even remember that we talked. Well I'll see you later...I hope. (clicks off camera)
Stay tuned for more of Elle's daily dilemma's.
