You have a lucky number I do

    What is it?

Nine  Yours

Eight.

I think if I asked our contemporaries wha their lucky number favourite was theyd all give me a single-digit number

Zero to nine

Zero?

A legit placeholder  Legit lucky number

There is that.

Jah

      An given tha so many of us I believe  chose one digit numbers  you can imagine my amazement when both my daughters chose doubledigits  the eldest fourteen  youngest twentyone

I asked them separately apart

I was gobsmacked

                        Yet the more I thought about it I coud legitimise zero to twelve  Thereby three double-digit numbers are included an open the door to double-digit numbers in excess of twelve tha I had excluded hadnt ever considered before

    Did that ease your mind?

Curious

                Eased

Jah

    Why twelve?

Throwin dice  Craps

                         While zero an one are neglected snakeeyes doublesixes two twelve are legit

I hadn’t thought of that.

Until I dug in I hadnt either

I reached out to my girls apologised for rollin my eyes when they shared their numbers with me

You apologized about that? A small matter.

Of course I did

                  I was inappropriate   Sardonic  mocking  cynical

Sardonic?

            That’s an awfully strong reaction.

They displaced a longheld concept

                                       Concept correct      Longheld belief

I was wrong

I can admit I can apologise when I am wrong

Frankly, I don’t know that was worth an apology.

Doesnt matter whaya think does it

 

    No. I suppose not.

Wanna change your favourite number from eight

No.

         Your nine?

Hell no

Semantics.

I can go along with that.

Excellent

Did we waste time disagreeing?

Disagreeing with you is never a waste of time

                                                       I enjoy it  Its entertaining

Ah. You finally admitted you can be entertained.

Apparently

                 As long as we disagree

he said

             and when he did their conversation  among six adults   went deadsilent

    it was directed at his brotherinlaw

                                             Just because you cant explain something doesnt mean you cant know it

Common sense

                   Experiencing something exceeds qualifying it

You either have or have not

                                Anif not  your inexperience doesnt trump anothers experience even if it defies your sensibilities

                    Your    Inexperience

Can you repeat that?

I said  just because you cant explain something doesnt mean you cant know it

    That’sah . . . ah . . awfully heady.

Not so much

                Its been said before

By who?

Someone

Said before by someone.

I believe so

               Language is so old tha whaever we say isnt original  Its been said before     

You believ . .

. . I do

he had sex dreams all the time

to his particular advantage he also was able to lucid dream

                                                                 or is that   have lewd dreams

    last nights was a doozyanahaf

searching his memory he came back emptyhanded

he couldnt remember a time when he dreamt of one spectacular breast

                                                                             lovely large areola

                                                                               nipple piqued

                                                                       made him feel like Goldilocks

                                                                                Just right

                                                                          however

she was disembodied

reminded him of the breast in Woody Allens Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex*

    *But Were Afraid to Ask

he was all over it like a bee lappingtonguelashing sucking weedflowers lilacs apricot buds pinchin squeezin biting it crawled up on topdidnt know if it swelled or he shrank and despite his ability to lucid dream he could not find its pair or the woman it belonged to

                                                     mounted it fucking it rolled off banged his head on the nightstand trying to leap back onto the bed his cape caught on the nightstand handle damn near strangled him finally slipping its noose  went back to riding it like a happy undeflateable infatiguable tawnycoloured balloon
