Fascinating


I touched the object in front of me unsure if I should touch it again.  I looked up to mother, she smiled and I instantly knew I could continue moving it through my hands. How was this possible? Did mother know holding light in your hands was a miracle within it's self? She didn't seem as impressed by the lights, but with every glance I gave her She smiled back reassuring and calm.

  2. ...and the cow's name was Wilma "Potato Sac" Jenkins. And by "cow," I mean _my aunt_. And by "blew everything up," I mean _she is really ugly_. And by the "the end," I mean that is the end of the story about lights, but the beginning of the story about Aunt Potato Sac.

  3. Dad and Aunt Potato Sac don't like each other very much. I don't know if Dad hates her cuz she's ugly or cuz she's always yelling at him.
    Dad says she's built like a sack of potatoes and smells like dirt; and that's why he calls her 'Potato Sac'. I like potatoes, I dont know why she gets so mad. I also like cows. I like how they moo. I like their big brown eyes, and I like milk. She should be happy to be 'Potato Sac' or 'Cow'. These are both really good things. Being ugly is not a good thing. She should be glad to be 'Potato Sac' and 'Cow' and that Dad doesnt say anything to her about being ugly. I think that's pretty nice of him cuz she's really really ugly. When she's not around, Dad says that Aunt Potato Sac looks like Rodney Dangerfield and Herman Munster had a child. I dont know who Rodney Dangerfield or Herman Munster are, and I dont know which one is the mommy and which one is the daddy cuz they both sound like daddy names to me.

  4. Thanks for the comments. I know this one was a real hard one. The comments are all great! Keep them coming. I love reading them and adding to them. I look forward to more stories that shoot off in all directions.

  5. I asked daddy who Rodney Dangerfield is. He said he is a big star and recently was on Jay Leno. I asked him who Herman Munster is. He says Herman Munster is a big strong man from a famous T.V. show. Aunt Potato Sac has to be happy about that. I think Herman and Rodney might have something to do with "marriage equality," whatever that is supposed to mean.

    Aunt Potato Sac talks about "marriage equality" sometimees. Last week, she said that my dad is a "bigot," for not supporting her lifestyle. She says that two men or two women can be married. Dad said, "Get the hell out, Potato Sac hag." He later told me that a _hag_ is just another name for a woman who looks like a potato sac.

  6. Mom told dad that he shouldn't be so hard on Aunt Potato Sac. Dad said I can't help it, I hate that guy! doesnt he realize he looks ridiculous dressing like that?
    Mom said 'she prefers to be called 'her' and 'she'
    Dad said "Well tell 'Aunt Wally or Uncle Wilma that HER 'package' is clearly visible through that clingy pink dress SHE was wearing, and that HER voluminous chest hair is kind of an obvious giveaway"
