THE ACTOR (Jimmy Riddle)

It’s late, but not too late. You’re still buzzed up on the energy of the evening, and the potential of the night ahead is so promising that you’re not even worried about having to get up for work tomorrow morning; you’ll deal with that when it comes. You’re with a large group. Some of them you know, some of them you’ve heard of, some of them are complete strangers. When somebody suggested going to a lounge, you snickered in that oh-so-superior way of yours, but now that you’re here, you have to admit that you can see the appeal. You’re all in a private area, your heavy coats draped over the back of the couch, members of the group draped over each other. You’re at the end of it, flirting like crazy with an extremely attractive person who you just met who is, thankfully, flirting like crazy back. There are lots of smiles and nods, lots of fingertips brushing the backs of hands to emphasize points. The vibe is amazing. This is the reason you moved to this city. This is why you make all the sacrifices, deal with all the daily negotiations and indignities. It’s so you can have a night like this, where the hot breath of someone gorgeous who is speaking seductively into your ear because it’s a little loud makes you feel like everything is going to be perfect from now on. I can’t say what you’re drinking, but I’m pretty sure the music that accompanies this video of Jimmy Riddle (THE ACTOR) is what’s playing the background. Enjoy the rest of your night. [Via]
