Thats funny.

Us too.

I think of you every time I pee. <vbg>

Actually we have them in a glass dish with some other
shells sitting on top of the tank cover. With the way they
just happen to be set, two of the shells appear to be some
sinister crazed eyes with the spirals peering at me. The
other shell is turned in a way it sort of resembles it's
mouth. (Go ahead and arrange them like that. You will see
what I mean. Turn the mouth one upside down.)

(I know Polvo is gonna do this and laugh. Then he'll show
his wife.)

Looks a little like this:

..D

The hairline cracks and lines make the eyes look bulging
and bloodshot.

Sometimes I get stage fright and have to look away until I
begin to flow.

Then the shells begin to mock me.

"You able to please anyone with that little thing?"

"Is that the snail that used to live in us?"

"Hey Oscar Meyer, nice cocktail frank..."

It used to be nice and quiet in that bathroom. Now I can
barely do any reading in there without hearing, "Turn the
page already. You sure do read slowly."

Or "Hey turn back to that photo of Carmen Diaz. I wasn't
done soaking her in."

Needless to say I've been using the bathroom downstairs
much more often now. The drippy faucet down there doesn't
seem bother me nearly as much anymore.

P.S. Of course I'm jus' funnin'.
I love the shells and they really are in the bathroom.
I was just letting my imagination run a little bit...

Imagine. You spend your life in the pristine waters of
Northwestern Canada only to end up on a toilet tank in
Clappy's bathroom where he stinks up the place each morning.

What a way to end up...

Seems unfair doesn't it.

Yin and Yang I guess.
