Loraine : "You know, Steve dear, my whole life has felt like someone else was controling it." Steve : "Umm, yes it's a book about self control." Loraine : "You never listen. That's not what I meant. I said, it feels like someone else makes me do everything! Oh never mind." 
Loraine: "Steve, dear. Doesn't it seem strange to you about the new nieghbors? You know, dear, the Jones' across the street. I mean, the lot was empty day before yesterday. And when we got up yesterday morning there was this old gas station with people living in it." Steve: "Umm, strange old gas station?" Loraine: "Yes, dear. How did they build it so fast? And why would they build an old gas station? Why not a house? When are you going to listen to me and take me seriously?" Steve: "Umm, what?" Loraine: "Never mind dear." 
Loraine: "Steve, dear. I have this urge to call the Jones' and invite them over for dinner. But for some reason I just can't pick up the phone. Why do you suppose that is?" Steve: "Umm, I'll go out and buy a new phone later." Loraine: "Really, dear you have to start listening to me a little more closely. And another thing, while I don't have your full attention. Why is it that you never put a shirt on? Why do I always wear this waitress uniform? I don't have a job?" Steve: "Umm, you can go get a job if you want to." Loraine: "Yes, Steve dear. It was nice of you to listen." 
Loraine: "Steve dear, wake up. I was just dreaming about rain. Don't you find it odd that the weather never seams to change? It doesn't rain or snow and the wind doesn't blow." Steve: "Umm, blow out the candles?" Loraine: "No, Steve, dear. I was talking about the weather. Oh never mind dear, go back to sleep." 
Loraine: "Steve, dear. No matter what I cook, it alway looks and taste the same. I would like eggs and bacon for breakfast just one time. What do you think?" Steve: "Umm, sure, you can get a new cookbook." Loraine: "Oh, Steve dear, really! And what else did I say? Oh yes, now I remember. I'm learning self control. There is nothing strange about living in an old gas station, that just showed up. I'm getting a new phone and a job. I really like perfect weather. And oh yes don't forget, I can have a new cook book. One of these days you will listen to me." 
Loriane: "Steve, dear. What happens to the pictures when your finished painting them? " Steve: "Umm, what paintings?" Loriane: "Dear really. Every time you finish one, it just disappears. How does that happen? And where does your paint pallet go?" Steve: "Umm, yeah, I'll go pick up some paint." Loriane: "Steve, dear. I'm really starting to get worried about you." Page2 |
