Something
was bothering me and took days to figure it out. The sentence was
missing two words. It should have read “She said it will only seem
kinky the first time”. You see, my first ex-wife was quite creative
and kinda frisky. Wanted to try something new out on me. “Hell,
girl, that'll seem kinky EVERY time! It did. Fun in a strange sort of
way.
We
were only married for a couple of months and neither one of us
proposed. Nope, alcohol and drugs were not involved. A bunch of
Cajuns were, as well as it being August in Southern Alabama. Her being
a native San Franciscan and me a long time resident of the same might
have had something to do with it. Addled by the heat. Cajuns LOVE
weddings. And partying. One of the Cajuns was my step-dad who, in a
bunch more years was also to be my uncle because my 2nd
ex-wife was his niece and when we had kids, that made my mother aunt
granny! Isn't this fun?! ...and NO marriages were between blood kin!
My tiny little Scottish grandmother thought we needed a bundling
board (go look it up). Does this sound a bit disjointed? It is and we
were and I still am. There's a whole lot more of the same but even
thinking about it will get one busted in many states and would have
them carry me off babbling in a butterfly net.
I
remained good friends with Fran over the decades and strangely, her
and Nina became good friends. Now I'll tell you, that was some
serious nervous-making. 3,000 miles apart and they were plotting my
demise. My life was soon to end. A Irish girl talking about a German
boy to a Italian girl! Oh, the humanity! ...walking around with a
severe case of the “yeeps!” is not good for a person...
One
morning before dawn, Nina brought a selection of tools into the
bedroom. Although I am normally not a big fan of sharp objects in the
bedroom, I let this slide. She joined me in bed and began performing
certain actions, quite interesting but quite painful. My joints were
not nearly as flexible as they had been many years ago and there was
a good chance of breaking a bone.
Now
ten years after Nina's death and 25 years after her conversation with
Fran, I've finally figured out what the ex-husband of my high school
girlfriend meant when he wrote “It will only seem kinky the first
time”. Fran was telling Nina a very unusual method of giving me a
pedicure!
Read
it through again. What WERE you thinking? I'm not that kind of
person!
That hurts!
