the rest of the story --- ChristmasEve Walk to Town

as she/I/we walked the path,
there was a SPECTACULAR view of LuceaHarbor
with OZ in the distant

opps.
not OZ
'twas that likkle-city resort --- GrandPaladium/Fiesta

we emerged,
back onto the main-road

mi vex-ed
'cause idiot me didn't make-note of where we entered the shortcut......it did save a likkle time

ummmmmmmmmm
must get her (or somebody) to point-out the short-cut entrance

well,
we continued our walk
chattin' along the way


at another point,
she asked for money against

so,
i reached into my back pocket,
and pull-ed out my likkle clear-plastic bag of coins

she-SAY:::>> sometings in Patois, about cho this and cho that , with this teeth sucking sound thing-y

nevertheless,

for some strange reason,
folks who passed by in taxis,
or were in their yards as we passed
*seemed* to greet us with this *funny* look:::; as if to say::>> "..what's going on..??... --- she with the foreigner..."

* sigh *

when we passed one yard,
she exchanged greetings with a guy in Patois,
he asked/said something

she-SAY:::>> "...he my friend, from blah blah ..... he my *mean* friend.."

* sigh *

conversation shift-ed

she wanted me to get her a man --- from foreign.

mi-SAY:::>> "..What kind of man do you want..??.."
she-SAY:::>> "..Like YOU..!!... ... BUT not as *mean*.."

* sigh *

later,
she said she was gonna make me a cake --- a fruit cake... a Christmas cake

BUT,
she need 1-1/2 dozen eggs.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

so,
moi,
being in a holiday giving modern
[[[ i don't know what came over me ]]]

volunteer-ed to take her to supermarket to get the eggs.

1-1/2 dozen:::>> Ja $450

* sigh *
