Live every week like it's shark week
Holy Matrimony, Jan Saudek, 1990
Hey guys, what's up?
"Not much, what's up with you?"
Well I got into a study abroad program at Oxford.
"Wow! That's awesome."
It's pretty cool. But I don't have anything to do until I leave in April.
"What are your plans?"
Uh, I don't know. I'm going to rent a place near western Massachusetts and find a job.
"Have you found a place?"
Yeah! It's great. It's cheap and huge and isolated and my only neighbors are sheep and horses. I'm really excited to live there.
"You're living with SHEEP?"
Yeah. I've decided that people aren't really worth the effort. I prefer animals. The great irony of my life is that I'm allergic to them.
"Hahaha. Yeah. So what are you up to now?"
I'm bumming around New York City. I got into an accident in Manhattan, so my car has been here for the last few weeks.
"Was anybody hurt?"
No, everyone's fine, but my car is fucked. I came down to get my car back, but my insurance just told me it's cheaper to buy the car from me than to fix it. So now I have no car.
"Shit. What are you going to do?"
I have no clue. Buy another car or a bike or something. A car is expensive, but it's awfully convenient, especially considering how much shit I have to transport.
"Yeah I see what you mean... So how about them Giants?"
I'm a Patriots fan, personally.
"Oh, okay. Well it was nice talking to you."
Nice talking to you too. I'll see you around.
"Yeah. See you around."
As a side note, I want this song played at my funeral:
Death of a Clown- The Kinks
