Sinister: helga?

[Kirsten Kenyon]

  yesterday was my day off.  i decided to drive an hour west to 
madison to do a bit of shopping....sometime in the early afternoon, i 
was sitting in my car in a parking structure, nervously fumbling 
through my pockets for the scrap of paper with elise's phone number 
on it.  i hoped she wasn't busy...ten minutes later, there was a 
rendevouz at the cat's meow, and soon after we traded secrets and 
spent a lovely afternoon traipsing around madison, trying on dresses 
and funny little hats, eating ice cream cones, staring wide-eyed at a 
hello kitty sticker photo booth, and giggling at vibrating nipple 
clamps. and we saw spats, too.  the gift for the man who has 
everything. elise is positively lovely, and i could not have wished 
for a better day off.  
   my mom just looked up from the newspaper and nonchalantly informed 
me that i "missed a good sermon at church yesterday."  it was 
strange...she said it as though it were something uncommon.  missing 
church, that is.  i mumbled something.  and she said "yah, it was 
about living every day like it's your last."  then she said "oooh, 
look, another review for amelie" and something about the "cute 
girl."  she went back to reading.  all i can think is that this 
better not be my last day, or i'll be pretty bummed.  well, i guess i 
won't, really, because...well.  you know what i mean....
   tonight started innocently enough.  jon was studying for a botany 
exam.  leslie and i were scribbling in a notebook.  then things just 
got out of hand...the botany sketches...animals were added...various 
props were added...a masterpiece was created in blue ink..."bambi" 
meets "i love you, alice b. toklas." (a horrid film....but if you've 
never seen peter sellars with his shirt off...well.  heh.  it's 
fun.)  we were sitting around and giggling and acting like total 
idiots, and the waitress came over and saw, and she laughed.  she has 
this laugh that sounds like "ss-ss-ss" and it's quite irritating.  
once she tried to make me a lutheran, and i said no thank you and now 
she gives me funny looks all the time.  
   if i were to live as though this were my last day.....i wonder 
what i'd do.
