The Last Word

August 13 – 17, 2018

Except for Cameron, beginning and ending the week with sweet cheer, LWON seems to be having trouble getting through it all ok.

Cameron grows zucchini and like anyone else who does, knows she need friends.  And friends aren’t necessarily those guys on social media, they’re the guys who take zucchini.

Christie was sad about Aretha’s illness even before her death.  Sisters doing it for themselves — shouldn’t that have happened already?  Christie is sad about that too.

Erik just moved back to the U.S. after years in Mexico.  He hasn’t a clue what we’ve done to the country in the meantime and he’s right, God, it’s awful.

Cassie looks around her, adds it all up, and thinks, “Fuck humans. The planet would be better off without us.”  Now, what to do about her little kid?

Street names are called odonyms — who knew?  They give us a sense of identity, of way of belonging.  Cameron would prefer they loosen up a little.
