7th grade, my room. Somebody snapped this pic during one of the parent-annoying sleepovers I threw. Bow Tie o’ the Day now provides coverage for a moon I caused. For once, I hadn’t created a moon with my own butt. Instead, I helped out this friend. (Mooning and streaking were BIGLY in the 70’s.) Me and my pals didn’t drink, do drugs, or smoke at my parties. I take that back. At one sleepless sleepover, we crushed potato chips, rolled them in paper, and smoked ’em. Rebel chicks! 🚬 🥔
This, You Can’t Keep From Happening
My hair’s a teardrop. It’s an all-around teary morning, cuz I had to transfer Mom back to Ron’s safekeeping. I just bite the silver bullet Cufflinks o’ the Day, and put on my big girl Bow Tie o’ the Day, and attempt to muddle through. These days, every time I say my goodbye’s to Mom, she looks tinier, thinner. She feels more fragile to me when I hug her. One day soon, I’ll go to hug her and she won’t even be there– in more ways than one.
