upon walking into the kitchen, i found alex washing something in the sink and anthony standing on a stool, naked except for a lightweight coat. alex, completely exasperated, turned to me and said:
this young boy can't stop touching his penis.
between the frustration and the use of 'this young boy' aleo could have passed for an over-fifty elementary recess attendant who had just drug the reputed school miscreant to the office for the third time in one week. i calmly told anthony to stop touching his penis in the kitchen and went about my way. as i left the space i heard alex say:
yeah, the only time you can do that is when you're sick.
hmmm. when i was young i watched price is right when i was sick. but, perhaps that's what all those showcase showdown girls were about.
