Which Reminds Me

Yes, it is true that I am studiously avoiding these little Bee-traps they have set for me in various places. And if I start asking questions they will have caught me in their little Bee-trap, so probably that would never change, because obviously their only motivation is to "catch" me. If they had something to actually say they could always find their own channel to project whatever they think they have to say, although I cannot imagine what else that might be. I am not finding very much Araucan vocabulary of interest, beyond this one word: Yu is the Araucan word for the beak of a bird (pico de ave). And even so, so what?

Yes, it is hard for me to understand why you don't just simply ask Heather what in the world was she thinking, what was her agenda, because personally I really do not plan to have myself kicked around throughout life by those nasty Italian Cats, needless to say. I simply have no idea what their problem is.

Yes, always so easy for you in the Panama Canal Zone to boast of your patriotic prodigies. You even live  in your own separately designated U.S. neighborhoods under U.S. law, almost as if the distance from Panama to the U.S. were negligible. It was not so easy for those of us living in other countries where things were not so clearly marked out, and not working at the embassy we had no access to the embassy and its commissary shopping and all of those perks and privileges that we don't get, needless to say. No, all I got was, at school, I got stuck in this bubble of dreary Italians whom I plan to be rid of ASAP, as soon as I get back to the U.S.

Which Reminds Me

Yes, I remember the time after Desert Biology science class and returning to my dorm room, and Cori and one of the Brooks twins, probably Marilyn, were there and Cori was telling me that they had studied together and she got a 98 and Marilyn got a 95 on the final exam, so they got As and I probably got a B. And I said that I had studied alone and that I got a 92 which actually is not a B, probably an A-minus. And when I said that they were so angry, especially Cori. She might have stormed out of the room, I don't remember. So childish those people are. But I always did prefer to study alone so that way at least I know what I know because I certainly cannot trust them for anything.

Yes, we recently noticed in our reading the brick that you are using to prop up your chair. Where the brick came from we have no idea so why should that matter, since you toppled your chair of your own accord and told us all about it without our even asking or wanting to know anything more about that

Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember the time that Michael made that tacky joke and Martha was infuriated, and later someone was trying to make that into something more than it was, because I have no other conversation with these people that I should be drawn into their internal conflicts of which I understand very little, only that most superficial observation and nothing more.

Which Reminds Me

Yes, it is somewhat mystifying to ponder why would I need to have any conversation at all with anyone in New York, always so stupidly chattering about nothing of importance or consequence to me. There is nothing that I need to say about New York and its idiotic milieu of nothingness. I will not share my glory with New York. I will not share my glory with Atlanta. It's just only me. I win. The rest of you are just wrong.
