- What do you think of this … what do you think of that … what do you think of those … what do you think of them … what do you think of there … what do you think of these? … Hmm? … Hot potato, two potato, three.
- Why put a potato on a dress? … Was her response.
Quick, queasy, queen-like forceful female voice demanded of my diamond … distinguishing denim from delirium by her own title of entitlement. … Her name was Linda, lined up with linebackers and lemons. … She was one of my closest friends.
- You say potato … I say tomato. … I refined a retooling of the realignment.
- Isn’t it you say po-TAH-to … I say po-TAY-to?
- You say to-MAY-to … I say to-MAH-to.
- Oh yeah, of course … you can use tomato, too.
Linda was glued to glimmer graduate of the Obvious. … Literate in the Literature of the Literal.
- Yes. … I said, which made her laugh.
- You’re so funny, Cynthia. … Sinful, sunless, pale ale pale you are.
- Congratulations. … We continued to chat as Chosen Chipmunks from Chatsworth … about Roger, my Boycotting Boy Scouts of America boyfriend … and his reluctance to go to my mother’s best friend’s 60th Birthday Party.

Roger couldn’t refuse … he was not allowed to … I would not allow refusal to refund my referrals. … There was simply too many Hispanics in Hawaii to hallow his name – Roger. … He had to go, he must go, Roger … for otherwise I am all alone in Albania and the Argonaut art houses.

- I never went to these things by myself. By myself? I can't do that. … Roger always goes with me. … And now was not the time for it to happen for the first time … fast and fancy and familiar.
- Why especially not now? Linda lime-licked a Limey. … Eye I-balled her with Heat’s Hycinth Heliotrope … stunning out her stars and suns and sewers and future sons.
- What? … What is it? … She bewailed.
- I’m turning 30 next week, Linnie-baby. - Oh, that’s right. …

As before, as now, as always, and always to be, while conversing on verbal violins, Virginia’s vagina veered left of Vermont’s, and we shopped. Double-duty, dual-action, multi-tasking, Tal k, Shop, Talk, Shop, Talk, Shop. … We were slicing through the guard dog garden garments at Olive and Oleander on marshland Melrose boulevard.
