selkie at 09:03pm on 10/02/2006....So after our dinner date, my wife allowed me to stop at the supermarket.
This, categorically, was a bad idea.
You see, there's a snow panic on, leading to thirty-minute queues, people standing in parking spots to stake them out, shoving with carts, shouting in various dissonances and a shortage of sour cream.
Mhm.
So, I was in queue (backed up to the Men's Absorbent Undergarments) and suddenly ahead of me there was this off-balance flurry of motion.
And a seventy-year-old white-haired man spiked a canteloupe. Threw it right down on the floor as if he expected it to bounce.
It didn't bounce. It squelched and flew up everywhere, all orange, and very wet.
They did open another checkout queue then, after all.
In unrelated thoughts, what kind of book will Seal Wife be if it's largely informed by Alexandre Desplat and Dar Williams?
