soprano one

BrilliantEditor and I have just finished watching the first season of The Sopranos on our fantabulous DVD Netflix thing. How ab fab to be able to watch everything at once. In this case, it's extra-good because the characters on the show are nuttier than fruitcakes. Possibly fruitier than nut cakes.

The main character, Tony, has a very crazy mother. Very crazy. Extra very.

I had lots to say about her, but I suspect I might be taking all the fun out of it for anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Instead, I'll share some of the joy the LeTigress sent to me a day or two ago. See how speedy you truly are. I am a bobbing bobcat. Most of the time. Sometimes I'm a sluggish snail.

My dad used to call me a slug. That's when I slept more than he thought appropriate. He called me a filly once. Not the cheesesteak, the girl-horse kind. He didn't want me getting pregnant. He said, "I've got a lot invested in you, ya little filly." He also suggested that I not go out, "one and come back two."

He's a doctor, you see. They have these technical terms for procreation and reproduction and gettin' busy. (What was I saying about crazy parents?)
