The Secret Lives Of Men: Eavesdropping On Mars

fishing.jpgI do like the world of men. It just reeks of… well you know. 😉

“He asked me again if I wanted to go fishing,” the soldier said regarding a man he works with. “I told him I had a girlfriend.”

I laughed.

“Well she can come. Bring her too, he said. So then I told him we had Vidroid too.”

“Vidroid isn’t here on the weekend,” I said. “Why Vidroid, he’s not stopping you.”

“I know but I thought it would be good. Vid might like to go fishing, but anyway the guy said bring him too. Bring them all, bring everyone, all of you come!”

“He really likes you. He wants you to come – Period.”

“Yeah, he wants to be chummy-chummy,” he said with a smiling sneer. “I don’t really like to be chummy-chummy.”

I laughed. “Yeah you don’t. What a pain in the ass, people like you so much.”

“Yeah, it is.”

“They like you.”

“I don’t know why, I don’t talk to them. I never say a thing but anyway he understood. When I said I had a girlfriend it was like, oh. A girlfriend. All men know a girlfriend means you can’t do anything.

“Yeah, that’s pretty much the situation. Just use me as an excuse, ya creep!” I laughed. “I think you should go. I bet you’d like it.”

“Probably will go eventually but I told him not now because I am still settling.”

“Okay, and meantime blame me.”

  1. boy howdy, I love fishing. I wish somebody would take me fishing. I dreamed I was fishing last night, had a fish on and everything. I lost the fish, but then Leonard Cohen (who went back and forth with being Sean Connery) was flirting with me, so I got over my lost fish.

    still, fishing=good.

  2. As Stephen Wright said, “There’s a fine line between fishing and standing on the bank looking like an idiot.” 😉

  3. well, it’s not exactly of the MLK variety, but I’ll take it!
