truth serum, half-price

A few true things you probably didn't know about me:

-My one aunt was a nun, then a veterinarian; I also have priests mixed in there somewhere. None of them became veterinarians.

-Diana Ross plays backyard basketball in blue sweatpants. My boyfriend and I sat on the little side bench, next to the jacuzzi that was always a vat of blue dirty leaves, and watched her for a while. The homeowners = Ross-neighbors and part of this Malibu gossip circle; we stayed in the guesthouse with the almost-secret closet. Diana's talons scraped the seams of the ball when she shot. I wonder if her acrylic tips got dirty? Also, this was maybe a year before she started grabbing breasts and not balls.

-Another Malibu Tale: Rob Reiner put a letter in the mailbox about walking with a loved one on the beach and having the perfect moment fucked up by seeing terrible dog poops (hint to 'hood dog owners). I was obsessed with this letter, and then gave it to a friend.

-For an end-of-semester essay and poem collection for Mrs. Gatewood's English, I added a dedication page that thanked my three muses at the time -- French dip sandwiches, San Francisco, and Harry Connick, Jr. Oh, my god.
