I play the harmonica. The only way I can play is if I get my car going really fast, and stick it out the window.

I need to be fast this weekend. You've started my Saturday with a smile. :)
ReplyDeleteMoving fast is not the same as going somewhere.
ReplyDeleteVery good.
I'm grown-up enough to know that taking the slow route's often more fun.
ReplyDeleteI wish, though, that as a child I'd been more like Mohammed Ali, or Cassius Clay, as we knew him. Which was a coool name. (Mohammed Ali? ha. there are millions of Mohammeds, few Cassii.)
You see, the monsters under the bed could grab you with a scaly claw, if you got too close in the dark. And the light switch was by the door. The fact that i am here to write this, and not chewed into tiny pieces long ago, is proof I was capable of prodigious leaps as a small child.
My dad would yell up the stairs in an angry roar "What are you doing up there? Just get to bed and go to sleep, stop crashing around!". Obviously, when he was seven, he had a dog that could keep the monsters penned up, and unable to grab. But I didn't. It was so unfair. "No, you can't have a dog, who'd feed it and look after it? Not you, because you don't put your toys away". I never understood why he linked my untidiness with dog-food.
Some times I write so fast i say things I haven't even told myself.
And I can't hold a harmonica out of my car window, because i haven't fixed the window motor yet. It's low priority. Who needs a window to open when summer's so far away?
@A. - Why do you need to be fast this weekend? Well, I'm glad I started your Saturday with a smile. If you're going to France again, you'll need a sense of humor.
ReplyDelete@Adullamite - I didn't get that one. Was it deep? I understood the one about the harmonica though.
@Soubriquet - Cassius Marcellus Clay. I would have kept it. The rest of your comment is pure poetry, you know. Much better than my post. Thanks. :)
