conversing bucky-like
Taking �Bucky� to school this morning�
�Is the
concert tonight?�
�No bud�it�s
not until next Friday night.� Why?�
�I just wanted
to know because I�m excited.�
��pause�
�Hey Mom�.this
is my first concert.� I never went to one
before.� And they�re going to play your
song.� That�s pretty tight.�
�Tight??�
�Ya know�.neat, cool.�
Um�when something was cool when you were 9 what did you say it was?�
�I said it was
cool I guess�
�hmmm that�s tight.�
There�s never a conversation
that I have with my son that I don�t feel grateful for.� Except for maybe this one�
�Go clean up
your bedroom, it�s a pigpen�
�I don�t want
to�
�I didn�t ask
you if you wanted to, I asked you to just go clean it up�
�Man, I have
to do everything I don�t want to do�
�So do I !!!�
�When am I
going to be able to do what I want to do?�
�Never, I�m
&* years old and I still can�t do whatever I want to do, that�s life!�
�Life
stinks!� Can�t I clean it later?�
�Yes you can
clean it later.�
��pause�
�Ok Bucky�.It�s
