Well okay so there were also some good things about hawaii despite the fact that it is populated by indolent savages. For one thing there was a friendly gecko who kept up a vigilant watch around the perimeter of the room keeping me safe. But all too soon our time together drew to a sorrowful close and I found myself back in los angeles in the arms of my super-special girlfriend. Why is she special? You’ll just have to take my word for it okay? We had both missed each other in a terrible way but then for some reason things immediately started going to hell and she was just crying and crying and I was trying to comfort her and to be strong and then my two cats came over and they started crying and crying and suddenly I started crying too and I didn’t even know why except that everything was just so terrible, and so difficult and I realized that the thing bothering me was, when I got back from Hawaii one of my chickens had died and it was so very sad, and the other chickens and the bunny didn’t understand and she had been dead for a few days lying in the yard, and I hadn’t even unpacked but I dug a hole and buried her and at the time I hadn’t really thought about it but all of a sudden I just couldn’t stop crying and I felt even worse, like everything was just going to hell. And I managed to say, I guess I’m not so great after all, and she said What? And I said, Obviously I’m not so perfect because I’m falling apart over a fucking chicken. And she said But that is perfect!
