Blog The Tenth: I've Been Suffering From a Severe Case of Nostalgia.

Posted by whattomorrowsfriday on February 21, 2009 at 10:16 PM

Yesterday was Friday.

 

Neither Alaina or I blogged. I was going to, and then I didn't. I didn't have anything to say. And I still don't.

 

So I will just babble...If I have a subject to babble about.

 

Since I can't for the life of me think of anything to say, I'm going to share a conversation with you between Alaina and I from our youth.

 

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

 ALAINA!

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

HAYLEYYYYY!

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

OH HOW I'VE MISSED YOU!

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

I SAY THE SAME, MY LOVE!

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:  

It has been but years since we last met.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

oh yes, and what long years they were...

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:  

Dreadful, filled with locusts and never ending winters.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

And of course there was the famine

Alaina... Who else? says:  

Killed my tobacco AND corn crop.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

That was a hard summer.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

you poor dear

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

Yes, the wife and kids...

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

 well

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

I ate them.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

oh...oh my

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

All except baby Moses.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

 He's knee-high to a grasshopper now, and has his mother's eyes.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

ah, how utterly adorable.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says: 

Yes, got him a dog last weekend.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

oh! And how does he like that?

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:  

Well, he named him and I haven't seen either of them in... a week.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

Moses and Joseph are probably in Mississippi by now, livin' off the land.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

They grow up so fast

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

Catchin' the buffaloes and using all their parts 'n stuff.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

 'Twould be a shame to waste

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

They are like regular savages.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

I would think anyway.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

Well we can't know for sure...but other than that it's good to know you are faring well

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says: 

 Why yes, thank you.  My dearest appreciation.  And you, how are you..faring?

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

Well all is good. Matilda turned nine last week you know. She was immedietly wedded to Jebadiah and they took a wagon and went off to start a family, happy days. But the coyotes are back....

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

Dang them to heck.  Matilda is wed?  The ages are getting older and older for today's generation.  Why, when I was a young [cave]man, I was betrothed at 5.

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:  

And a half.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:

I know, the times are a changin'. but those coyotes! they stole four of our head cattle and half of the chicken coop! Dreadful animals really...

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:  

Rope 'em and shoot 'em down!

 

 

Alaina... Who else? says:

If I remember well, you were quite a rowdy wrangler back in the day.

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

oh! you do flatter me so! But alas, things have changed...i'm not as nimble as I once was....Ask my spouse...

 

 

Alaina... Who else?

 Terrible news!  How old is your youngest yet?

 

 

Haley.(Heroin). says:  

Just turned two! And he's already learned how to plow the fields and milk the chickens....a difficult task you know...chickens do not much like to be milked

(We must've been having an off day.)
