Old Friend From Park Bench

I heard from Mark today. He seems about the same as before. Good to hear from him.

Poor Mark. Still in California? I visualize him living in an RV on the side of the road because In blue state California he can’t afford this:

So I’ve been on an install crew in Alberta for a solar farm. People told me it’d be very cold here so I got a bunch of winter gear, it’s been nothing but muddy

You get all the good jobs don"t ya?

Hi pardon us I hope somebody here remembers I was used to play as fissure king and get it real bad on the board.

Hi Mark. Good to see you again. Here’s hoping all is well with you.

It is very sad to see you. I hope you are not going to keep insisting and demanding and immediate loss of 100 pounds of unhealthy body weight.
Dense beyond comprehension.
I get the same disrespect and I’m gone for another year. Maybe it’s better that way as all those insults you had for me are true feelings for you. What destroyed you?

Hello Mark. It’s been so long. What have you been doing? What brings you back to BBad? Did you miss us? We have missed you a lot lot. Everything changed after you left and nothing has been the same without you here. Well, except my exceptional curiosity for everyone else’s business. Some call of them still call it nosey but that’s not really politically correct and invalid comments are glossed over around here. So are you going to stay or leave again and blame me for your inability to cope here because I can already tell you, I’m probably going to infringe upon your threads immediately.
Welcome back, Mark!

I agree, blame Michele. She’s the real problem. Not me. I’m innocent.

Maybe you are not the boy in the plastic bubble but there is a very real “protective aura” about you that seems necessary to hold your shape and consistency. Being so far removed from any type of experience or interaction you tend to wound grievous and haphazardly where you perceive no damage done. Maybe you think it is a quality about you that comforts people letting them know “i can’t smell anything.” or “what smell? that doesn’t bother me.” as it would to lesser persons who would be put off so easily as if from undeveloped discipline or weakness.

It has to do with your “air” in every sense of the word and your consistency and weight that makes it impossible to accept you. You are a very self harming person that hurts others as he sees as extensions of himself when he can expend himself no more. No harm done is because the damage is being converted to another form and energy.

I don’t know how to say this to you as a friend.

You sound like “the silky one”. His name was Mark also.

Yes, Mark. Blame me. Someone has to wear the pants around here.
I can tell you have really missed us.

Are you wearing pants Michele?

Always!

Do you wear Angies dresses?

Sigh* I’m sorry. Can I get you a snot rag?

I have my own dresses. Thursdays are cross dressing days.

I bet you are pretty in a dress.

Drop dead Michele, drop dead gorgeous.

You heard the man, Mark. You and I are to promptly drop dead.
