This day started like any other.....eyes opened, clothes were put on, foods were ingested, tv was surfed, southern accents were butchered, etc, etc...but it rained, it rained relentlessly. Worked on a wee piece of music Phil came up with. It's quite lovely. It's a cross between Tina Turner and.....Hootch. It will be a number one hit in the Maldives...and the US? Fingers crossed.
Johnny braved the wet weather so he could do the opposite in the pool. Max gave himself a mani and pedi and facial scrub, all with an old hairy bar of soap he found behind his bed while Kieran went about sorting the dozens of bottles of various barbeque sauces he found in the fridge and cupboards. He categorized them based on spiciness, colour, texture, cardiovascular endurance, vertical leap, emotional openness and general hygiene. Philip wore sweatpants and facial hair quite convincingly all day as he went about deconstructing and rewriting Plato's "Simile of the Cave" into a Gary Sinise sci-fi vehicle featuring space monkeys, Bob Hoskins and a cyber armadillo who had trained in the Royal Shakespeare Society but was now doing blue movies with ex-cast members of Cagney and Lacey......something something AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
A little cabin fever set in but we pushed through and ate a wonderful chili con carne Phil had made, topped with blue corn tortillas, avocados and sour cream. Sorted out our plan with Dennis to go to New Orleans for Superbowl XXLLRWIIOOPSTYXZZZNN?+*&%^$£""XIII. Johnny wondered if the locals will be more or less destructive if they win. He had been in Valencia (Spain) when they won La Liga (Soccer League) and the town was set ablaze. If it gets out of hand we'll just grab a bottle of bourbon and hide under a table. Crazed sports fans never look under tables. They're too busy ripping their shirts off, french kissing all the men around them and crying.
Anyway, we all spent a little time on our own then...having a little communal chili break every now and then with the occasional quesadilla, yummy. Then more bed to ready ourselves for the next day's action.....Purchasing second hand sports coats, eating french toast and bacon, writing more popular music, hearing ourselves getting fatter and much much more.......smiley face, etc.
