Randie and Ryan
Tripping through married life…
Ryan isn’t being very sensitive to the fact that Randie has not had a shower in, ahem, … many days.
I think I get it. The translation of Randie’s comment is something like ‘I look terrible. I need to wash my hair!’
What if Randie is one of those rare people who always speaks in a foreign accent following an head injury? I wonder what it would be? I would recommend Scandinavian because of a new song my kid has been practicing with her band (Mickey and the Briquettes, one Apache girl and her all-Jewish band ‘We also do Pow-wows and Bar Mitzvahs’) They took the old song Walk Like An Egyptian and turned it into Talk Like A Norwegian with new lyrics.
UB… yes… “me zombie… icky hair. Must shower.”
That would be cool if Randie suddenly spoke with a French accent. ‘zees would be tres cool.
Your kid’s band sounds intriguing … That’s a great re-invention of “Walk-Egyptian” … I’m a Weird Al fan… so that makes the bestest of sense to me! I have a friend who’s kid is in a punk-metal band called Fat Lizzy. They do… LOUD stuff.
A French Accent would be an interesting choice for Randie, better than the Irish Brogue I had been entertaining. I like the thought of Randie in her Edith Piaf phase. ‘Quand il ma prend dans ses bras, Il me parle tout bas, Je vois La Vie En Rose!’
Fortunately The Briquettes have no interest or intention in turning professional. The way the Universe works means that they will probably be discovered and launched into fame and misfortune any day now. Mickey sounds very much like Cyndi Lauper at this phase – she is still only 10, even if she did start to High School this year. Also her ‘new’ sister is settling in as their new drummer in spite of being unable to hear, but there has been a number of successful deaf percussionists who ‘feel’ the music.
Also today is my Tiny Lady Veterinarian’s Star Wars Birthday (May the Fourth be with you!)
One sign of a loving husband in the couples I’ve observed is a general lack of concern about their wife’s level of dressed-upness. This often irritates the wife, but honestly when your husband finds you equally attractive after having just got up as after you’ve gotten yourself ready to face the world, it’s a generally good sign it’s not just your looks they’re attracted to. Either that or you’re so stunning you don’t even need to get out of morning mode to look like a model! Either way in this case I think Randie can be forgiven looking a little rough, given a four day coma. Of course we all have our pride!
Trev… in my experience, it’s sort of a guy thing… if I may be too general. After a while, it just seems like they are indifferent.
My mom, THE champion Indecisive wife, toiled over what to wear to The Marine Corp Ball every year…. or what to wear to a nice event, or what shoes to wear (on a daily basis)… I think my dad just got worn down. I can still hear him say, “Just pick one, Donna.”
Be as general as you like. And yes, I hear that kind of thing a lot with older couples…… in both directions, actually!
Yay, Ella! Now she’s back up to the proper number of servants. 😉
Cats do have a gift at opening up their friendly side at the right times. They’re not as good at it as dogs –
who do it all the time – but perhaps because it’s rarer it can be more precious.
I agree… cats have specific duties (although they themselves wouldn’t call it a “duty”) and one of which is to snuggle at the appropriate time… to bump noses or to rub on your leg (especially if you are allergic)… this are important jobs.
One of the less common thing our cat Eliot did was he took it upon himself to run to the front door to greet us every time get came home. He’d race up and start doing shoulder rolls on the floor while purring. He did the other cat stuff, too, but this greeting was always wonderful.
She might fall down in the shower. How ’bout a bath?
RN… indeed… I’m sure that Ryan will take good care of her.
She’s fortunate that she’s an artist and not a wordsmith with that level of impairment.
We’ll just have to see what she comes up with in her sketchbook, won’t we? And yes, the gibberish would be alarming to the writing sort.
