a few days before xmas, our friend lanny stopped by unannounced with her
husband, who maybe has only been here once, if at all, our old
friend-who-ran-away-to-join -the-circus- Joon, who'd never been here,
and a very wonderful friend of theirs and i hope to be one of ours one day,
Ron-God, and he's never been here, either. the house was a wreck with xmas
dex going up, and i was still pulling grocery bags in from the car when
the doorbell rang. i answered the front door by way of the walkway to our
backdoor (that we always use) with a sack of potatoes in my hand, or
something. it was absolutely M's ~worst~ nightmare come to life: people
in her less than perfect house. we pulled out the Johnny Sokko tapes and
watched them on the telly, ron-god found one of our guitars and tuned it
and played johnny sokko theme music for us, as well as xmas tunes. it
was fun, and torture for M as well.
ron-god was very appreciative of all the um, ~shit~ we have around our
house. we pulled out the various sized Lost In Space robots, and he
dug 'em; the Jupiter 2; the Chariot, the Mach 5 and the GRX;
Magilla the Gorilla stuff, Curious George; he was even hip to the modern
Powerpuff Girls. he dug it all. He even knew the name of quickdraw
mcgraw's sidekick!
so, naturally, M inverted the big salad bowl on her head and did her
very best "doctoooor smi-iiith! pretty, pretty doctor smith."
routine. cuz, you know, we'll do that. give us an audience, and
that trick comes out.
he even remembered how the flying robot sacrificed himself for earth by
flying into the sun on the last episode. haven't scored that one yet on
e-bay. yeah, we were very happy with ron-god.
years and years and years ago i had a toy Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea
submarine. the Sea-View. i wish i still had that. that would fit
right in with all our aforementioned shit.
liesel: today on the radio i heard your Pete song about stories and
cigarettes ruining the lives of lesser girls, and i thought of you.
and that kind of ties neatly to the beginning of this post, so
bye
