i was chewing the inside of my mouth while reading the list...do i get extra points for that?
Brian said…
So I was just reading one of your lists and I had to roll my eyes - it was just last night, while reading the paper and drinking a root beer and listening to the Beach Boys, I realized I’d completely forgotten I had a casserole in the oven. Well, needless to say, dinner was fried to a crisp – fuck. I went outside and sat in the grass for a while, looking at my elbow and wondering what the heck I was going to do about dinner – huh. Well, I decided I should just go out – excellent – I wouldn’t even have to do the dishes. I was glad I’d figured that out.

I called up a friend of mine to see if she’d like to go. Dinner with someone would be the perfect cure for my evening blues. On my first try, I dialed the wrong number – OOPS!! I looked at the phone and thought, “I doubt I dialed the wrong number… that’s just not possible.” Second try I got it right. But, after talking to her for like thirty seconds, I decided she might just be the most annoying person I know. She was rambling on about this or that and I had to finally interrupt her by telling her some guy was at the door with a package for me. She didn’t hear me the first time, so I sort of had to scream it at her, “SOMEONE’S AT THE DOOR!! GOTTA GO!!” I was so happy to be off the phone, I threw my hands up into the air and danced. I flailed around so much, I accidentally knocked a vase off the counter (which promptly broke). I bought it at a garage sale a few days ago and I’d just set it out for some flowers I bought earlier in the day. Breaking it just made me feel sad – but I was okay with that. I tried to use some tape to fix it, but it was a goner.

I threw on my shoes and my new hat, and decided to walk to dinner… where I bought some brown rice… and liver… and potatoes… and had a glass of wine.

…and on and on and on…. That made me giggle… now I can’t sleep….

There Queenie, do you now see what an inspiration you are to your readers? *RTFLMAO*

HUGE ups to Ticknart and Brian! Great job outta both of you! *LOL*

And yes, I was indeed busy yesterday Q, but apparently not as busy as these guys!

Done that, although ... does trying to fix a shower that only produces hot water count? That's how my day started today.
We don't have squarrels.
I don't know what gobstopper is. Doesn't sound like something you should eat?

Boxing Day

Countless times, on the weekends when you are here, you leave for me a stream of yellow in the bathtub. Something angled wrong in this 160 year old building. Sometimes you hit the tiles, as you whip your dick to the left to spray. Do you hold a finger over your pisshole? Do you laugh inside your head? I don't want to know. She bathes in there too.  I have been kind even letting you here. It is only because I love your father.    It is May or June, I don't remember. As sickness washes over me and the rest of the planet too, it can be easy to lose track of time. We tend to the plants, stroke their leaves and name them all. We watch the cat grow fatter, as she lolls in the sun on the stolen chair cushion she's dragged to the hard cement balcony floor. I feel like I know Gamer Chad better than myself and she complains about Jordan Peterson. She can't stand his voice.  But I am more tired and angry on weekends. I tell my her so. I tell her my solution. She tells me she...

Unending Paper Chase

You check in on me when you get your break for lunchtime now. You never used to. You ask me, "Are you all right?" You breath in and out hard once through your nose, like it is a chore to even ask. It seems to me that for you everything is an obligation, even holding my hand. Everything you do doesn't feel like anything more than surveillance now. I don't want the days to end and it is getting harder to sleep at night. I am starting to feel sick, like I have the flu. I'm always cold. But I haven't eaten much lately. My stomach is filled with acid. I smile at you anyway. I write two letters a day. One to keep you smiling and one that tells of the truth, but they both look the same. You do not know that I form certain words and sentences in a way that triggers me, in a way that reminds me of what is real. It is something that I started doing in grade school for tests, so that I could easily remember the answers, and then later, so my mother would not underst...

reruns all become our history

"You are ignoring my question. Still." She's angry, 45 minutes later. She is always angry after the friends leave. It's the same old shit. He's fucking tired of hearing her voice. That accusatory voice. That shameful voice. The one that demands the answer to a question he's forgot. How did this all start again? Instead, he walks over to the sofa and sits down beside her. He takes her hand in his. He just wants it to end. "They are our friends." She shakes her head no. But she keeps his hand in his. Her phone goes off. It makes its sound. What's the name of that song again? it feeds, it grows
