the brown recluse

ade and i spent an entire summer drunk. seriously 6/7 nights a week. we subexisted on bagels (she worked at new york bagel), candy (i worked at the candy basket) and alcohol (various bars, mostly throughout norman, although other oklahoma towns were sometimes lucky enough to be blessed by our presence, and our dollars). we had such a great time - 'i loved you more than i did the week before i discovered alcohol', 'malibu and coke for you, a g & t for me'. her grandparents, owners of the well-traveled two-tone, had birds named 'gin' and 'tonic'. how can a girl with a bloodline like that not be cool. the original brown recluse - she has brown eyes, brown skin and brown teeth b/c she's smoked too many cigarettes. she's the ultimate irishwoman, adrianne finnigan, a redhead (sorry adri, but it's true), born on st. patrick's day who went to mcguiness high school. and she and jay are finally getting married. i'm happy for her - she glows, but i don't know that he deserves her. nothing against him, i'm just not sure anyone does.
