Jean & the Rain

At lunch today, scooping leftover tortellini with pesto, I looked at Jean & said:

During the rain, I had an urge to strip naked & run out in the back yard & dance in the downpour.

Spooning a bit of chicken tortellini, she asked: What about the neighbors?

I said: Sam & Nick are not here, Jason is not here, most of the neighbors are at work.

Jean pointed out: What about Juta next door? She doesn't work.

I said: Juta would approve. After all, she & Dietmar have been swimming in the nude in their pool for years.

Jean thought for a moment & said:

Next time, dance in the rain.

I just might.

I love my mother.
