The other day I was telling Carlos about a new client at
work. This woman had come with a friend who told me she had lived in Camden
through high school, but then moved to Texas, and had now moved back to Columbia.
Carlos looked at me quizzically, and asked her name, but I
had forgotten it—luckily, she wasn’t the client … awkward. He said her story
was similar to a woman who’d asked him to play his trumpet at her church
Christmas service while she played piano.
I tried remembering even her first name and couldn’t, and then,
not thinking which is how I go through life, I said to Carlos:
“What does she look like?”
He paused; I paused. And then we both burst out laughing as
he said:
“I’ve never seen her!”
Sometimes we forget about his vision impairment.
Luckily, he can laugh about it. |
Sweet, sweet karma.
ReplyDeleteIt would be SOOOOOO sweet.
DeleteIt is highly entertaining watching the GOP prance around the clusterfuck that the Orange Moron is. While I’d love to see him behind bars, I would settle for him never to hold elected office again. Unfortunately, his evil impact on our country will continue for decades with the damage he did to the Supreme Court. I’ll pass on Maximilian— I have enough iron in me!
ReplyDeleteI, too, don't exactly see him in jail, but if banishment is still a thing, I'm all for that.

ReplyDelete(Carlos) (Tuxedo always)
Karma!!
xoxo :-)
Karma is still a bitch, but in a food way.
Deletexoxo
"and then, not thinking which is how I go through life," Honey, you just described me. But it's so sweet you can laugh about it! Love that journey for you.
ReplyDeleteHope Bobo and Large Marge go at it while the cameras are rolling.
And Brad has always looked good. Always. Good genes. And a chef and a trainer. But good genes.
And of course I'd let him hit it. You had me at six-one. Like a tree, I'd climb him.
XOXO
I can laugh about it because Carlos can laugh about it. He gets all credit.
DeleteI always thought Brad hot, though blonds aren't my thing; but I have enjoyed older rugged Brad.
xoxo
Get Abbott close enough to the Rio Grande and I will be the one to run up behind him, walker and all, to push him in.
ReplyDeleteYou may have to fight off a lot of other folks who want the same thing!
DeleteHim indoors used to work for the company that makes batteries for the US military tanks, submarines etc.. Stealth weapons have been around since the early years of the century - why throw yourself about now?
ReplyDeleteGOP Clown Car.
DeleteIt would be epic to see 45 hoisted by his own teeny tiny petard, fall into the hole he himself dug for Hillary.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT'S visual!!
DeleteI would pay so much money to watch Lauren Boebert and MTG fighting it out. I'd bring popcorn.
ReplyDeleteGreg Abbott is a monster.
I think Max needs to do a remake of "Brideshead Revisited." A more explicit one.
I'm here for all three things you said. Yes, yes and yes!
DeleteKarma. There should be a collection of Ron DeSaster maniac al laughs. Like Kanye's smiling-sneering images. Maximilian's cute. Carlos is one of a kind. Can The Bobo and Large Marge have a shoot-out and both lose?
ReplyDeleteI've seen a montage of DeSaster's maniacal laughter and it's scary; robotic.
DeleteCarlos is truly one of a kind; I got lucky there.
I kinda see Marge beating the shiz out of Bobo who will spend most of the time running and shrieking.
Keeping it short because I'm in a funk today. I would rather have Jeremy Irons, myself, with a little Brad Pitt thrown in for good measure.
ReplyDeleteInteresting little ménage à actor you have planned!
DeleteWhat can I say? I love Jeremy's voice and Brad's looks. I don't need to do anything but listen and gaze. My imagination is hot, my reality isn't.
DeleteI think there should be a tag team match with MTG and Boebert - with Muck and Zuck.
ReplyDeleteI've never known a cat not to be annoyed when someone interrupted their nap, nor one who couldn't sleep through the housework.
I think that's why Tuxedo chose a high window for his nap; to escape notice!
DeleteA cage match between those four would be epic ... cage match to the death?
So many things to say, but let's go with the obvious: Hell yeah, I'd hit that because as Moms Mabley once said, "Ain't nothin' an old man can do for me but take me to a young man!" Amen! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThat will be my new mantra, or whenever they decide to do a Real Housewives of Camden and ask me to be in it, that will be my tagline!
Deletexoxo
Max wouldn't happen to be Jeremey's son, would he? You're probably right about Brad. The next hurricane is blow Ronnie out to sea. And I'm betting Marge has a bigger dick than Bobo
ReplyDeleteLoved this week's tale and the other tail is great too. That is a great photo of Tuxedo. It would be quite the karma if Trump was done in by his Hillary hatred. And it would be awesome. You and Carlos have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteI would like the Karma of Hillary, very much!
DeleteTuxedo loved to have his picture taken, even scowled every so often for a change of pace.
You and yours have a wonderful weekend as well!
Oh how I enjoyed seeing tuxedo!!!! I now wondering if you should have named him Stretch?
ReplyDeleteI think it's not long about Large Marge OUT!
Tuxedo was a very stretchy cat, definitely.
DeleteI hope you're right about Marge. She's disgusting.
I didn't even recognise Brad Pitt there. Are you sure he doesn't have a better looking, younger cousin?
ReplyDeleteRight???
DeleteThat's a cool fashion statement De Santis is making with those white boots. I must get some. Normally only worn by deep sea fishermen and slaughterhouse workers. De Santis appears to be getting fatter. Are Republicans anti-salad?
ReplyDeleteWell, I know most GOPers are bloated gasbags ....
DeleteCarlos is a gem.
ReplyDeleteYes he is.
DeleteYour blog was mentioned by Yorkshire Pudding. I like what what I am reading here. As if Jeremy was not hot enough, his son Maximilian Paul Diarmuid Irons is a knock out. Meanwhile in Australia there is an attempt for the Christian right to copy the US to ban a book. https://au.news.yahoo.com/outrage-over-yumi-stynes-sex-ed-book-for-teens-needs-to-stop-043735084.html
ReplyDeleteWelcome, thanks for commenting.
DeleteMax is what I call a hot little [not so little] nugget.
Sad that the worst things about America are being picked up around the world!
