There was a knock on the door this morning at ChezNaked....
Nakedjen: Oh sorry. Just a second. I'm on the phone with my agent.
The Architect: Oh yeah?
Nakedjen: Yes. She wants me to be an extra in a movie with Brad Pitt and Sean Penn this weekend.
The Architect: This weekend? Where is it filming?
Nakedjen: Out on the salt flats.
The Architect: Really? What kind of movie is it?
Nakedjen: Something directed by Terrance Malick. A fantasy of some sort. I don't know really. But I'm not sure I can really do it. Because they also have dates in June they will need me. I'm trying to find out what those are.
The Architect: That's right. You're out of town.
Nakedjen: Yes. And I can't be in just part of the film. But I can't imagine Brad is just going to show up when he's about to have babies!
The Architect: Whose having babies?
Nakedjen: Brad! Well, Angelina, actually. Two more.
The Architect: You mean he's really having them and not just adopting them?
Nakedjen: Yes. Twins. Angelina is having twins. She's ensconced herself on some private island or something. Don't you know how she goes into seclusion to have her babies?
The Architect: No, and I don't care, really. How do you know this stuff?
Nakedjen: Everyone knows this stuff. I just absorb it from the atmosphere. How do you not know this stuff?
The Architect: Um, I suppose it is because I am living my life and don't care? And it doesn't really matter?
Nakedjen: Oh. Right. Well supposedly they're having the twins any day now and how can he be here to make the movie if he's having the twins? Don't you think he'll want to be there with her? With his babies? He's a good dad, right? He's not just going to say, "Gee, thanks for popping those puppies out, I've got to go back to the set and make my movie now..."
The Architect: Whose having the twins? Where?
Nakedjen: Brad and Angelina!?!
The Architect: We can stop talking about that now. Really. I don't care about them. At all. Let's go to breakfast!
And perhaps, dear readers, that is the reason I find The Architect so very attractive. He really doesn't care. So much so that he doesn't even know! It's actually kind of refreshing.
