Working Out Details with Mama

Jul 05, 2005 22:54

It's nearly 6:00 am by the time we turn off the television, finished with our viewing of Some Like it Hot. Shellie and I stay up late into the night, well, early into the morning that is, watching old movies. Cary Grant, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley. Visions dancing and singing in black and white cascaded through my thoughts as I finally made my ( Read more... )

I watched Becky walk off to her bedroom, and snuggled into the fold out bed. Tonight had been a lot of fun for me, a good change of pace. We'd watched a few of my favorite movies back to back, until our eyes started drooping and birds were chirping outside. I felt safer and more content than I'd felt for a few weeks ( ... )

I smile as I walk out toward the living room, still decked out in my morning finest: an oversized t-shirt, messy hair and a bright smile. I am not surprised to see Shellie up and about, having not known what sort of a sleeper she was.

I gesture toward her with one of the mixing bowls I have in hand. "You hungry at all? I can whip up some biscuits and gravy right quick." And I could. It was really one of the few things I could cook really well, having grown up in a southern oriented kitchen.

I smile at Becky, and give her a wave hello. I decided to bury my bad thoughts, and enjoy the good company. My smile becomes even wider, when Becky tells me all the plans are OK with her Mom.

I look down at my outfit, and pout jokingly to Becky's remark.

"You want a shower before we head out? I got plenty of towels and the like .."

"That bad, huh?" I laugh. I didn't think I looked too bad for a car ride, I wanted to be comfortable after all. "...I'll just grab a shower later. Don't think I smell too bad..." I chuckle. As for biscuits, I was all up for that. "...I'd LOVE some biscuits, can I help?"
