Today as I was taking a frolic through my finger wonderland, and that's nothing dirty you perverts.. and I don't mean dirty in that fell down and got your knees all messed up with dirt sort of way, I was reminded of this time last year and all it's hilarity. I live in a one bedroom hut, but for the last year there have been 6 or more different squaters staying on my living room floor. Orphans I like to call them. Anyway, this one particular Orphan was my good old buddy Dave from Chicago. He rolled into LA in Novemember last year. It was one of those things where I got a phone call,
"Hey were you serious that I could stay for a while with you?".
"Sure" I replied.
"Good 'cause I'm in Iowa now, I'll be there in a day or two".
Sure enough he arrived days later in his beat up maroon Ford Escort with the jimmy rigged CD player in the tape deck. I was so excited to see where this was going to go. Another stay at home adventure. Dave was the perfect thing to ad to my collection of misfits and unwanted toys. The moment he arrived the pranks and knee slapping humor began. I was reminded today about this one particular afternoon. We were laying around my living room watching 'The Parker's', I'm sure, making fun of pretty much anything we could make fun of, sides splitting in laughter or from the slow gas leak, when somehow we got on the conversation of storming Boner Hill. As he so kindly reminded me today we were strategizing for the retaking of Boner Hill. There was a glitch though General Wang never came. As Dave so nicely put it,
"He has left us with the head of the operation Leiutenant Johnson", who just couldn't get his unit up the hill in time.
"We'll never get to the top... it's too hard". Was surely something I would have interjected with at some point.
I know somewhere in my house is the piece of paper I was writing on that day, I have an obsessive thing where I write all the things that make me laugh really hard on paper. Now I am going to go home and tear my house apart so I can further this ridiculous banter.
I think that may have been the same day we hung the sign by the front door that was shaped like a flower. On the outside of the petals it said welcome to Neverland Ranch. Then on the inside it said 'Smile or I'll fuck your children' with a drawing of a heart, a peace sign, and a cat's head underneath.

hehe. I have that same sign! Good habit, though. writing tidbits.
Winky...you are my hero. Care if I crash at your place too? Only be a couple of days. Oh, and can I borrow 5 bucks? I promise I will pay you back...ya know...when I get on my feet.
If you go...where will I sleep?
..or the drunken piece of coctail napkins with all the punchlines, but no jokes.
or worse, the story I tried to outline on a book of matches.
You two have chemistry..
Anti-Blogger, of course, you are welcome to crash at my house. I have a small space left next to Lou's litter box. Lou makes the best sandwiches, you'll just love him. And please take all the money you need. Just get in my wallet while I'm sleeping or make a grab when I walk into the next room. I know it will only be a matter of time before you're on your feet again. While you stay please feel free to run the shower all day long cause' I know the sound is calming to you. If you get cold just turn on the oven and leave the door open all night. I'm here for you, with open arms.
I do like to sleep with the oven on. I hope it is a gas oven, cause I can't stand those electrical ones. Also, I like to sleep with the window open on a cold night. Just in case it gets too hot.
Oh...and I sleep in the nude...
Yes it is a gas stove. Oh, we are going to have so much fun.
I personally like to sleep in a wet towell.
..Wink, I'm so upset.
Why are you so upset?
I'm fine now..
Happy New Year Miss Winky! Love you!
..it's warm, slightly overcast, with patches of sun.
warmer with scattered showers through out the day.
There is more to this upward journey. While storming Boner Hill the unit was afriad there hands were too full and that they might blow it. Thoresen Wells I need your help. Help get these boys to the top of Boner Hill.
