Tonight's recap of the day and whatever decides to flow through me may be sort of dumbified. I have Sprout on in the background. The lady's voice who hangs with the star, is distracting me in a way where I could.....had I not made prior agreements with myself to be negative for 30 days, get annoyed. And not annoyed by her voice, but annoyed with myself for being distracted.
We decided to see Horton Hears a Who this morning. Relish the moments with a movie on a Sunday morning with coffee, a not so crowded theatre, and your ex who sort of smells like the night before in a very public way. Our humanling is the buffer between our seats.
We can continue to refer to him as Ex Caveman. He is a very big hearted neanderthal with a few addictions in a Jack Kerouac sense. Apparently his band went on at the witching hour last night. And apparently there must have been quite the gale force in the room because when he walked out to my beep this morning, his very long hair defied gravity and was bent sideways like the arrow on a compass to guide us to the movie theatre. I was on the cell with my mom when he fell into my view and I do recall a sentence of exclaimation that I said something to her using the word "mess". He has a great sense of humour thankfully and can handle most of my verbal poking. At least Back In the Day, a week ago when I was not on my 30 day trek!
Cavey makes money here and there and needs a lot of help getting by much of the time. So when he offered to take us out to eat for Easter, I wanted to be sure that he had money left in his pocket for himself. He is too much of a grasshopper and will blow the whole wad in one sitting, on impulse, if we pushed him to. So I chose the movie before noon (three of us for $18! Yes!) and decided on pizza, thinking that a few slices would be easy on the wallet.
He is a Sagittarius and needs to do things big. Not JUST pizza, but pizza at an expensive restaurant. Thankfully his family is in good with them and they spend thousands of dollars that they don't have there. They are so comfortable with him that they asked if we wouldn't mind picking up some jellybeans for them since they weren't officially open, but would be shortly. When we got back, the door was locked and Cavey was holding his sack of jellybeans, waiting for the door to open.
Humanling however, is a Capricorn who is very concerned with Things Happening On Time Like We Said They Would. She can be seen pouting outside here:
Fear not - this lasted a mere 10 minutes. Nonexistent in Jupiter Standard Time. Lunch apparently starts near 1:30 here.
I might mention that Humanling's dress is sponsored by Easter Bunny Ltd. When she saw it in her basket, she said to me "Oh, this is for you." Further inquiry produced the answer, "Its Booby-Shaped."
We did see a favorite friend pass on today. Someone we know as The Man. The Man usually shows up in stores or restaurants when Humanling was younger and rambunctious. We would say really fast "HereComesTheMan!" and like a cloud of magic, behavior was interrupted. Today Cavey tried to pull the Man out of a hat in the restaurant. His endeavor was met with a dead stare and the nearly tween words, "It's not funny anymore."
The Man has stopped lurking in Walmart, and has hitched a ride to his spot amongst the cream of the Legendary Intangible crop. Santa and those of his ilk haven't even been given the pardon yet. So here's to you, The Man. Happy Easter - new life, eternal life in someone else's parental bluff.
