Return of the Chicken

Years ago one of my first jobs was working for my aunt at the ticket counter for the Junior Hockey Team of our city. I loved working behind the counter and when the game started and sales slowed down we had a good time talking and joking around. I have vivid memories of those times and they were very good.

When Paypay and I started dating, he joined our little group and worked with me and my aunt at the counter in the back of the arena. It was a small two person counter and we hustled our little behind because lots of people came through those doors.

One evening, Paypay and I were waiting to close the counter and there was nobody in the lobby so Paypay started to goof off. He lowered his head and started to make chicken sounds and was flapping his arms. He couldn't see the lobby and just kept going on and on. I was sitting next to him and saw that a lady had walked into the lobby and up to our counter while he was pecking away. I just sat there and didn't say a word.... he! he! he! The lady looked at me and I just shrugged my shoulders and made a coucou sign. The lady and I cracked up at the same time so Paypay lifted his head and when he saw the lady he turned beet-red and left his seat for the safety behind the wall. I have never laughed so hard in my life!

So when Paypay showed Chickpea how to cluck all those memories came back in a flash! I just had to film it and will probably get the evil eye for posting it but I don't care it's too funny to pass up.

Une de mes premieres jobs etait travailler pour ma tante au guichet d'entree pour l'equipe locale Junior Majeure du Quebec. J'adorais travailler au guichet et lorsque la joute commencait et que les ventes ralentissait nous avions du fun a parler et faire des conneries. J'ai beaucoup de beau souvenirs de ce temps.

Quand Paypay et moi avons commencer a sortir ensemble il a joint notre petit equipe et travaillait avec moi et ma tante au comptoir en arriere de l'arena. C'etait une petite salle de deux guichets et nous etions occupes car beaucoup de gens passaient par la.

Un soir, Paypay et moi attendions l'haure de fermer le guichet et il n'y avait personne dans l'entree et Paypay a commence a faire des conneries. Il a baisse sa tete et a commence a faire la poule et faisait aller ses bras en meme temps. Il ne pouvait pas voir l'entree et s'est laisser alle. J'etais assise a cote de lui et j'ai vue une dame entrer et s'approchee du guichet pendant que Paypay continuait a faire la poule. J'ai reste bien tranquille et j'ai fait un signe de coucou. La dame et moi avons bouffe de rire en meme temps et Paypay s'est leve la tete, a vue la dame, a vire rouge-feu et est parti derriere le mur. Je n'ai jamais autant ri dans ma vie!

Quand Paypay a montre a Chickpea comment faire la poule tout s'est souvenirs sont revenus dans un flash! Il fallait que je vous montre ce petit video, j'en connais un qui ne serait pas content mais s'est trop drole pour ne pas partager.
