Kicking the Old Man

Wednesday, January 14, 2009 | comments (4)
"So are you coming home for the Big Event?"

"Geez, I don't know. The crowds, the traffic."

"Listen to you, Old Man. "

"Wow. No kidding. Where did that come from?"

"I'm not letting you get away with that."

The Old Man has started to inhabit me. He conjures up words and uses my mouth to speak them.

Stodgy Old Fuck. Stay away from my mouth.

Sometimes it's necessary just to give him a good boot to the ass. So I will be doing that. I will be kicking The Old Man.

And I think I'll grow a fucking beard to mark the occasion. Because The Old Man hates fucking beards.

Just last week I was bitching about how kids these days have no manners and are generally rude. I also had to really think about going somewhere when I knew it would be midnight before I got to bed.

patrick: Generally if I'm within crawling distance of wherever I am going to be that night, then the late thing won't bother The Old Man. That's why I've become a hobo. I like to be able to just take off my pants wherever I am and go to sleep. Or maybe it's just that I like to take off my pants. That's another issue altogether.

"Stodgy Old Fuck. Stay away from my mouth."

That's what she said...

Honestly, though, I can FEEL myself becoming my mother. When I'm home, if I answer the phone...

"Oh hi, Mrs. LiLu, blah blah blah-"

"Um, let me get my mom for you..."

Banish the old man, but definitely grow the beard. It's cold here!

Seriously no one HAS to become their parents. Pay attention, make different choices. That's all you have to do.

SO GLAD you'll be in DC Tuesday, adding to the rowdiness. YES!

I've spent the last several days in DC at the inauguration. I'll keep it short and just say I had a great time and I'm going to let the pictures I took tell the story. These are all captioned with time and description, but I think you have to click through to the set or slideshow on Flickr to see those. Be sure to turn the captions on for the full story.
