I’m not a sex addict. Or a nudist.

by Lynn on January 25, 2012

Lately, I’ve been getting weird looks.
I don’t understand it. All I’m doing is taking notes.

I mean, are “to do” lists that archaic?
Is that why I’m getting so many strange looks?

Wait a second.
These aren’t my pens.
My brother gave them to me.
For Christmas. As a gag gift. Really.

See?

We shouldn’t go out in public with the pens they have.

We really must have a family reunion. Ha! Ha!
HUGS!!

Christopher January 25, 2012 at 8:42 am: I keep looking at the writing on the green pen and seeing “Enjoy ping pong, volleyball, & our famous bottomless…” Bottomless what? At a nudist camp I can’t imagine there would be a bottomless anything.

Meanwhile I haven’t purchased a new pen in at least ten years. I keep finding new ones in various places–sidewalks, empty offices, on steps. There’s always a voice in the back of my mind that says, “Maybe you shouldn’t touch that pen. You don’t know where it’s been.” Hopefully it hasn’t been at the Verdant Fields Nudist Camp.
