After supper, the news and Home and Garden
television you are at Kroger’s on Tylersville with Carol doing major shopping.
Tomorrow morning you are heading to the Honey Baked Ham store for the main
course. You both relaxed for an hour and you have Carol’s iPhone 4 up and
running with Cincinnati Bell so her old phone goes in a drawer for emergency
use if her newer phone ever needs work. You are becoming a bit more accustom to
your iPhone and have downloaded the apps needed from your shared iCloud
account. You mowed the lawn except for the southwest hill, which Carol mowed
and you cleaned the bathroom floors while Carol spent time washing clothes.
This is the way you live; mostly organized. You even made new house keys as you
could only find one that worked – one for each car and another to the neighbor
in case the garage door opener does not work.

hours. Paul sent me a text early today so I would have to respond. I did not
realize that texting could be done with voice. It is not without fault but it
is pretty impressive as far as I am concerned. My fingers/thumbs are too
massive to work the small keys well and the software has autocorrect, another
cool feature I knew nothing about. We need to keep up with the times perhaps
better than we have. Tonight we talked to KP&boys on Facetime for the first
time in quite a while. The boys enjoyed it as much as we did. I suppose we are
a decade behind in this modern communication era. Carol had been using Kim’s
old red Razor phone and the fellow at Cincinnati Bell got a kick out of seeing
one; he said the Razor is a good phone but you could tell he thought he was
dealing with an antique.
You are home and took time to look up more
about your once former sophomore student. You had heard she was a model but you
did not realize she had modeled for Playboy and Penthouse; and that she once
had a fan club. You also found she was a B movie actress and are not sure what
that means. You have never seen her in any films that you can remember. Some
say she committed suicide and that her brother committed suicide two days later.
To you this has a ring of a Greek tragedy laced with the drug and drug
rehabilitation trade. She did not live in a good environment and for this you
feel sad and somewhat ‘misplaced’ in your thoughts. – Amorella
2126 hours. There is such a juxtaposition of settings from when I
knew her and her later life. I have nothing against Playboy or even Penthouse.
In younger days I read both, even the articles. Shoot, in college I sold
Playboy (75 cents + 3 cents tax at
the time) at Gifford’s Bookstore in Uptown Westerville. We had to keep the
magazines behind the counter, that was the only restriction, plus you had to be
18. I will sleep better tonight realizing there were lots of personal
relationship problems in her life at the time and that she hopefully she has
been a peace since her death. What a world we live in. Domestic abuse has
always been with us I assume. Many of us have been more fortunate. I pretty
much live in a glass house. I would never throw stones.
