Message for Mom and Dad

Author's note: This one has a bit of a history. I was complaining about not having a story for a mix tape, and so Hutcho pitched me this idea. Sadly, I couldn't get it to work properly for the mix tape, so I'm setting it free ...

Hey, Mom and Dad, its Matt. I know its been awhile, but some stuff has been happening here that you will not believe, except I swear its true.

You remember me telling you about Lisa, my new girlfriend? From the first date we have found we found we had a lot in common, including a love for cheesy Disney cartoons. Well, last week we watched “Lady and the Tramp” and decided to re-create the dinner scene where they eat the same spaghetti strand and end up kissing. We decided we would kinda cheat, find a big piece of spaghetti with a fork and each take an end.

But something happened when our lips met.

We switched bodies.

And no, I’m not kidding.

I have no idea how, and I have no idea if we will ever switch back. We even tried re-creating the kiss, but nothing happened.

We’re both struggling with the switch, trying to survive as best we can while hoping its temporary, but in case it lasts, I want you guys to do me a favor. I was supposed to come home for Christmas, and we’d still like to come, but as a couple so we can continue to support each other through this.

And when I come, be forgiving if I act occasionally “girly”, okay?

Matt/Lisa

“LOKI! What have you done to those mortals!”

“Just allowed them the chance to walk in each other’s shoes, that’s all.”

“Well, switch them back! Now!”

“Can’t The spell can only be cast once a year.”

“The all-father shall hear of this when wakes!”

“I’m sure he will. ... now, what other fun can I get into while father is asleep?”
