I’ll Have London Broil With My Popcorn

(for ‘sis … )

they had meat for

dinner almost every

night …

…..

but for

months

he had been eating

tomatoes and

feta cheese

for dinner

even though he

hated feta

cheese …

…..

he couldn’t stand the

taste

and

it made him sick …

…..

she insisted all along he become a

vegetarian

and she

insisted he eat feta cheese

even though he

loved

meat and

potatoes …

…..

” .. honey ,”

she said,

“as long as you bring home the

bacon

you can have whatever you

want … !”

…..

which ….

…..

this was the problem  … !

…..

he hadn’t worked for

months

and

tomatoes with feta cheese is a

LOT

cheaper than

two people eating

london broil … !

…..

(even though

they had plenty of

money … )

…..

it was her idea he only

eat

feta cheese and tomatoes …

…..

he just shook his

head …

…..

why feta cheese, he wondered ??

…..

( … she said it had something to do with goats milk and

the symbyotic relationship goats have with

tomatoes …. ) ???

…..

she gloated it over him …

…..

 … the meat thing, i mean …

and

the fact that he wasn’t

working …

…..

naturally,

he didn’t want to make

waves so

 he ate the damned

feta cheese …

(after all … he WAS unemployed) …

…..

but he would NOT

give in

when she

asked if he

liked the

feta cheese … !

…..

she always

laughed,

‘i can tell by the look on your face it sickens you.!!!”

…..

one night he had to leave the

table

after eating a piece with

green

mold …

 …..

(… he hated bleu cheese even more … !)

…..

she followed him to the

bathroom

chortling the whole way,

 ‘’i know why you’re

sick you

flack ass,’’

she said …

…..

“it’s that

cheese you

liar … !  

you hate it … !’’

…..

he told her he thought it

 was something he

ate at the

unemployment

office …

…..

she laughed again …

 ’’probably one of those

meaty hot dogs you like so much

you

meat eating, in denial 

vegetarian … ,” she said with

a

shit eating

grin on her

face …

…..

she put her arms around him which

he though was

kind of

nice

(for a change)

but she

faked one of those

knee jabs to his

crotch …

…..

when

doubled over she called him a

doofey

unemployed jake ass …

…..

he laughed …

(what’s a ‘jake ass’ he wondered …. )
