Before we get to the drama everyone wants to talk about, let's talk about mine. It was a scorcher, yesterday, and I had to go into the city for a doctor visit and med retrieval. I achieved both, in record time, but it was do de-energizing; the heat, literally, took my breath away, so I decided to go right home.
On the subway, this homeless guy got on, cursing about all us "white motherfuckers, and don't you say anything to me, because I got a knife." He came on board with at least three garbage bags, so where the knife was, or how he would retrieve it, remained a mystery.
The smart people got off, and moved. When he settled down, I thought we were through. But when this woman got on, he started on her, and I feared trouble. He finally got off at one of the early stops in Brooklyn on the R--Metro Tech, or DeKalb--and we were thankful.
I get home, and after hydrating myself, I had computer problems that have since, been solved. I was hysterical, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't even start my new book!!!!!!!!!
The capper was when I was leaving to meet David, to bring home sandwiches. Our neighbor, Jennifer, was coming over, and then we were going to watch "Sharp Objects," which is what I know you all want to hear about. All in good time. I had reached the foyer, to leave, when a loud knock came on the door. It was National Grid, coming, thankfully, to turn our gas back on. after a hiatus lasting, practically, the entire Summer. The guy was very nice, and did his job quickly, so I was not late in getting to David. He asked, "Didn't the super tell you were coming today?" I wanted to say to him, "Are you kidding? That lying, rat bastard never tells us anything. Whatever does come out of his mouth is a lie." Instead, I just said 'No!"
This did not happen till 5:15 PM, yesterday. I had planned to leave at 5PM, but was detained. Had I not been, who knows what would have happened?
So, all's well that ends well, I hope.
And, please, no more drama. Just limit it to the stage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
