My ONM Clay Pidgeon

[caboose1919]

This morning, as I go about my daily things, I notice a man outside my house. He is about my age and he is looking intently through my windows. And he is opening my gates to get a better look inside. In my area, that usually means he is scoping for a break-in (which has been a problem in the house before). So I turn music on real loud to try and dissuade him. I don't confront him in case he means business. He goes to my back alley and starts talking on a cell for a few minutes. I get out my knives and suit up. I also load and cock my dad's rifle, 'cause he's acting kinda suspicious. I call Keegan, who I am suipposed to meet and tell him I need him to come over ASAP. I call my dad and he says he'll be home in 15. I call 242-cops and give them a description. The man goes back past the first gate and looks in again and then walks down the road. Keegan arrives with his fighting sticks but there's no sign of him. My dad arrives. He met the guy coming back and asked him what he was doing. He was a replacement PNM guy who was on his first day on the job as a meter-reader. He couldn't read ours, so he came in the gate to get a better loo, but decided to not try to pass the barb-wired and locked second gate. My dad said that was sound judgement as to the teenager with a gun on the other side. My dad, Keegan and I were all dissapointed as to the lack of the fight we were all somewhat itching for.

I beat F.E.A.R. Goddamn.

Went to a 'Topes game. They lost. A lot.

My best wishes to my buddies and their love lives. And here's hoping that this new one is...well...THAT. Sorry I cannot find the words, but at least I know what I mean. And that's usually a rare thing

Song been running through my head past few days. Don't know why.

Coin-operated boy
Sitting on the shelf
He is just a toy
But I turn him on
And he comes to life
Automatic joy
That is why I want
A coin-operated boy

Made of plastic and elastic
He is rugged and long-lasting
Who could ever ever ask for more
L:ove without complications galore
Many shapes and weights to chose from
I will never leave my bedroom
I will never cry at night again
Wrap my arms around him and pretend

Coin-operated boy
All the other real
Ones that I destroyed
Cannot hold a candle to my new boy and I'll
Never let him go
And I'll never be alone
And I'll never be alone(go)
And I'll never be alone(go)
And I'll never be alone(go)
And I'll never be alone(go)
And I'll never be alone
Not with my coin-operated boy

This bridge was written to make you feel smittener
With my sad picture of girl getting bitterer
Can you extract me from my plastic fantasy?
I didn't think so but I'm still convinceable
Will you persist even after I bet you
A billion dollars that I'll never love you
And will you persist even after I kiss you
Goodbye for the last time will you keep on trying?
To prove it
I'm dying
To loose it
I'm losing
My confidence
I want it
I want it
I want it
I want it
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want a
I want a
I want a

I
want
a

Coin operated boy

If I had a star to wish on
For my life I can't imagine
Any flesh and blood could be his match
I can even take him in the bath

Coin operated boy
He may not be real
Experienced with girls
But I know he feels
Like a boy should feel
Isn't that the point?
That is why I want a
Coin-operated boy
With a pretty
Coin-operated voice
Saying that he loves me
That he's thinking of me
Straight and to the point
That is why I want a
Coin-operated boy.
