I feel shit in my bones  Im boned tight

What the hell are you talking about?

Id say intuition but aint something I have

                                             Jewish buddy of mine Abe describes his feelings  kishkes  in his gutswhich is profound to me  Only gut feeling I ever get is when its time to take a shit

That paints an ugly picture.

Wha can I say tossed his handsup to either side of his head  Im a reality star

that brought a big hoho out of his buddy

Good belly laugh

Yeah, you have that effect on me. Reason why I hangout with you despite your occasional crudeness.

Only occasionally

Leave it be, that’s what I tell myself alright?

Awright  Awright

                   You look beautiful this afternoon  Thanks for meeting me for coffee

Thanks for being available. You realise how often you turn me down.

   Do I

You do.  I don’t take offense, not knowing you as I do, but it’s how often you don’t come out because it’s something you’re involved in, and involved, not with anyone else.

                                                          You being with you.

he nodded casually I like my company Im good company

You are, yes you are.  I’m grateful you asked me out.

I owe you many

You do.

         Would you like to tell me how beautiful I look again?

Stunningly beautiful naturally beautiful Wash your face brush your hair come out no adulterations

You’re a weird bird, man.

I like things straight

So you’ll have black coffee.

Youll have fancy

Need to cut the coffee with something or it’ll upset my stomach.

                                                                   Follow me circling back, kishkes? I’m gonna have to remember that.

A good one to keep

                      Another

waitress came to the table they ordered

                                            she ordered an obscene pastry   You’ll try a bite, won’t you?   A bite no more  he ordered dry rye slightly toasted warmed through   It’ll cool no sooner than she brings it to the table.   All things cool   You’re not alluding to us?me?   Im not  The toast

Another to keep

Also from your Jewish friend, Abe?

His mother

Learn something new every day, who says that?

Coined it Emerson

                     Knowledge is when you learn something new every day. Wisdom is when you let something go every day.

No.

     I meant you.

I do

You do, except not in those words.

                                    Case in point.  I didn’t know it was Emerson.

Something else not to forget

                               Abes mother

Ah. Abe. Yes.

She informed me Verklempt Overcome hard to speak choked with emotion Shed put her hand to her throat  As a matter of fact when Abe introduced me as a friend she did that She was not happy with me

But you grow on people.

Thaswha Abe said

Elle laughed

Another

Verklempt, verklempt, verklempt.

                                     Think I got it now, sure.

A personal favourite

Tracy the waitress returned served them their coffee the obscene pastry and said shed be right back with the toast  I want it to be warm, be back.  off she went

She’s certainly taking good care of you. You think if you ordered your notorious barelyfried sunnysideup eggs shed jiggle while she walked

both hohoed deeply  inside joke

There you go. set the rye before him

he set his hand atop the slices warmed slightlytoasted

                                                           Crushed it kiddo

Oh thank you!  Need anything else? Jam? Marmalade?

Uhoh, the walls are crumblin’, crumblin’ down.

           Tracy brilliant  Yes please

Youve realised you like watching her walkaway.

Obvious

No. I like watching her walkaway. She has an awfully nice rump.

She does nodding She really does

We perverts gotta stick together.

Yes

     An making an excellent play for us to meet more frequently  Subtle 

You read me like a book.

Youre a sharp cookie

Tracy returned with marmalade selection of Bonne Maman in small jars

                                                                             Anything else I can get you?

Elle said  I think we’re good. You’re spoiling him, Tracy.
