You know... Me thinks I have a hunch who that female could be... But I'll reserve my guesses till Bo posts her identity... And more of this new endeavor of his.

That Other Journal, right there, right then

Darn.

Darn, darn, darn, darn, darn. I just can't get that man out of my head. Man? More like a boy, take Peter Pan and give him dreads, and glasses and some pain creeping into the tight skin around his eyes, and there's that man. I've known him for so long now...impossibally long, which is why it would be impossible for me to even think about finding him, speaking to him, seeing him again.

That's why I stepped backwards not forward, hitting shoulders with a skipmy skirted waitress, pushing the crowds aside, hiding back deep inside my hood and cloak and leaving the club by a back entrance.

Where was he before? When she needed him to get her on track? He didn't care for her then, and didn't steal, beg, fight his way to find her. Stupid man. Stupid.

I saw him again today. In a cafe, drinking coffee, cappachino I think. The foam stuck to his lip, and he laughed and wiped it off. He was there with some friends. I was in a taxi, waiting for Mr R. Why would I see him two days in a row?

Why???

Is it a sign?

Love,
Me

Yeah... Me thinks my hunch was fright. But... I'm more interested in reading how this develops Bo.

Oh, yes, this post was all based on the one above, but I couldn't resist! I never heard that expression before...

Scooter Journal, that café, then

I snuck a few moment to write a note about this conversation that just happened. I was drinking cappacha with Robin and Kermit and Nigel. Nigel used to be a guy who ran things around the theater before Kermit took over. Sure, I wasn't around then, but Nigel tells me often enough. If I stay still in one place long enough for him to step up beside me.

Robin was doing his spellings for school. And, they really have advanced those since I was in that place supping soggy soup in school dinners.

Kermit looked down the list written in scruffy hand on a piece of paper. The teacher gave it to Robin after school, yesterday. He says Robin is really bright, but even he couldn't spell this word...

"Intriguing," Kermit said.

Robin looked pained, like he was the one eating soggy soup. "I. N. T. Rig...ur..."

Kermit glanced at the list. "Huh?"

"What?" Robin blinked.

Kermit looked like he wanted to raise his eyebrows, except he has none. "I was commenting on what Scooer just said...about finding more work with us...He said he thought he could do more than he is now, and I said intriguing."

Well, Robin giggled. And Nigel admitted he could spell that word for beans, and Kermit said he didn't know the correct spelling anyway. And my conversation was basicly forgotten...and I didn't find more work, and they just shoved off home for the theater. I think I'll get more coffee.

Back. The coffee is great. Pity about my life.

Ever goofy,
Scoot

"That word for beans." (chuckles) Robin, my friend, you have it easy. When I was in second grade, I once had a spelling test with words like photosynthesis and chlorophyll on it.
Beau, tell Robin that if he needs any help with spelling, just come to me. I was the three-time champ of our local paper's spelling bee back in middle school. But if it's math he needs help with, he'll have to go to the Count.
