After a long day at work, Laura Llew and Velocity Farewell are having a nice cup of strawberry tea while lounging on the patio of their house which is situated next to their art bookstore ... Velocity: So Laura... I saw this guy yesterday... you know, the one with the floppy hair and the cords... he looked so nice! eventho' he doesn't look much like a mod and you know I love mod boys... still, he looked so cute...there was something about his eyes... I can't really define it... youthink that we still have a chance to escape our spinisterinity? *velocity sighs and passes the lemon cookies over to Laura... Laura: Him??? Oh dearie. Don't you know that he's the boy who is addicted to the telly? Now, I know what you're going to say - that you saw him purchasing a canvas and you had hopes that he was artistic. I must warn you though,all he paints are shirtless portraits of Ben Stein. They practically cover that entire hovel that he calls an apartment. And I'm not just saying this because he's blonde and detests the Pixies. Velocity: What? are you serious Laura? detests the Pixies... mmmm maybe he's a mod after all... haha... Laura: A boy who doesn't like The Pixies really isn't a boy at all, Is he? Of course, those who do like the pixies are a bit 'cocky'. Why once I asked the village santa Richard Pushong what his favorite pixies' song was. He said "Mine's Gigantic". *Laura raises an eyebrow and takes a sip of Strawberry tea* Vel: No, he didn't!! "mine's gigantic"? I wonder... *smiles in a devious way raising her left eyebrow* Laura: Talking about sizes and... you know. I find it disconcerting how B&S just 'pop up with this Dick Slapping thing. It seems 'hard to believe that it came from no where and I'm trying to see how I missed the signs. Vel: "missed the signs"?? I mean, what did you expect? what kind of signs? Oh Laura... I've just thought of...oh never mind...*Vel starts laughing hysterically while Laura's trying to remain serious and continue the conversation* Laura: I hope it doesn't mean that the band changes. Vel: I think the band had it with everyone... they just wanted to shock people... shocking is good... you know how many art movements used it as their battering ram? really, I can't see anything wrong at it... Laura: Just now it's only Stuart David who's abandoned ship but with this change there's no telling who else will be next. Of course, we don't have to worry about Isobel leaving. Can you see her getting off that big bum of hers? Plus, it's obvious to me that Stuart Murdoch can not be my cabana boy. Things are off between us. No he will not touch me..... He will not touch me in the car. He will not hit on me in the bar. He will not croon in the house and he SO will not go up my blouse. He will not kiss me here or there, he will not slap anything anywhere!* Velocity: Hmm... at least Isobel has ambitions... at least she's going for it... not like us, sitting here, gossiping about everyone and everything, pretending we're a perverse Dr. Seuss and drinking "strawberry tea"... we're hopeless... we are... I know we have decided never to marry and remain the sinister-spinsters forever, but sometimes... it's so hard... I wish I had someone to tell me "don't leave the light on baby"...
