*Tarra walks with Josh, still in her temple clothes*
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:16:40 AM)
*holding her hand* So are you grandparents going to disown you for going to a reform Temple? *grins*
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:17:27 AM)
She smiles. "they already have. I'll live. Honestly..it makes more sense. it's like all the ideas without the stuff that was archaic 5,000 years ago."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:20:20 AM)
Well its the oldest temple in the area of the Louisiana Purchase. But...yeah...well not ALL that stuff is archaic I guess.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:21:04 AM)
"Darling...they're not going to disown me for going to a reform temple. Or for marrying you. Or for a wole bunch of thngs that probably dissappoint them about me."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:23:17 AM)
Oh I know. And thats dumb, they should be really proud of you.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:23:40 AM)
"I hope so. I took my life into my own hands, called your mom about the dress."
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:27:12 AM)
"The first thing she said was 'I'm sorry for the horrible color, but do you like the style?'
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:30:03 AM)
Youre kidding me. It was a wrong number, had to be.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:30:49 AM)
No, I'm not kidding! She told me that she got it for cheap because it was a dress that someone else ordered and then didn't pick up. So they sold it to her for like...$50, and I'm supposed to take it to a tailor and have it fitted, then send it back to her."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:34:21 AM)
Well thats good I guess. Its still a hideous color.....hows the new job?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:34:55 AM)
I come home every night feeling like I've swum in oil slick.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:36:55 AM)
You dont have to work there.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:40:30 AM)
Help me find a new job, and I'll quit in a heartbeat.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:40:50 AM)
I don't want to go to work feeling like I've sold my soul to satan. and joined catholocism to make up for it.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:42:59 AM)
Done and Done. As soon as I find an internship, we'll find you job with a company that doesnt require daily penance.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:43:21 AM)
"I appreciate that. I can't wash everywhere on my body with alcohol.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:43:59 AM)
I can help with that too. *grins*
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:45:02 AM)
that sounds kinky.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:47:42 AM)
Could be. Could be. This is definitely the place for it.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:52:02 AM)
*she squeezes his hand* you're sick. how are you adapting to the big easy?
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:53:34 AM)
Its hot. And humid. And smells like New Jersey.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:54:16 AM)
"New Jersey smells so much worse."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:56:12 AM)
Well maybe. But then it had about 100 years head start. Im sure this place will catch up. Overflowing floods of sewerage are a good start.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:56:34 AM)
"...just the place we want to start a family. That's wonderful motivation to move."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 12:58:16 AM)
Im not planning on staying past graduation. We'll see. Oh....if you makes you feel any more like we're still in Seattle....theres apparently a...what was the phrase in the paper? Demonic Serial Killer.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:58:54 AM)
I'll let you in on a secret. I never liked Seattle. I thought I was molding.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 12:59:07 AM)
I mean...the place was pretty and all. Really pretty. But you were the best part
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:00:39 AM)
*grins* Well....I didnt mind it there, but yeah, if we HAD to make our unplanned exodus from the city....at least I got to take the best part with me.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:00:48 AM)
"The retarded cat."
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:00:57 AM)
"He came with me to SEattle from Ithaca, too."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:01:25 AM)
Actually I meant the three quarts of Ivars Clam Chowder in the cooler, but the cats ok too. *laughs and hugs her*
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:01:48 AM)
"...you know, I was goig to do that if you didn't."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:02:35 AM)
Which part? The hug or the chowder?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:03:12 AM)
the chowder. I cant get enough of the hugs.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:04:58 AM)
*walks with his arm around her* Although the Gumbo is pretty good once you get used to the Okra.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:05:12 AM)
"The okra is vile. what the fuck is up with spiney veggies?"
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:06:16 AM)
The spiney is to take your mind off the slimey.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:06:53 AM)
They're disgusting
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:08:02 AM)
Yeah, theyre pretty gross. But the shrimp are good.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:08:45 AM)
The shrimp...yeah, Ok. The shrimp is damn tasty.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:14:43 AM)
Yes, tasty and so not kosher. *laughs* I have a hard time figuring that one out, you know. Ok...pork? Sure, eating undercooked pork, generally bad. But shellfish. How much shellfish were they coming across wandering in the desert?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:15:43 AM)
shellfish cooks at a higher temperature than pork, and I don't know. bottom feeder?
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:17:15 AM)
Well yeah, they are. But chickens are ok and....honestly...theyre disgusting.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:17:32 AM)
they are. I don't get it. there has to be a reason.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:20:44 AM)
*nods* Yep, there should be. Hey....tomorrow, you want to go to the Voodoo Museum?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:21:08 AM)
I would love that. It sounds like fun. *she smiles8
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:24:08 AM)
Well its part of the history here, so we should learn about it.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:24:16 AM)
We should, and we will.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:28:11 AM)
You know anything about it? Its like some wierd combination of african tribal religions and catholicism. Really strange.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:28:44 AM)
"Yes, I know quite a bit about it. I have a really good video we can watch about it at home. Very educational. The serpent and the Rainbow."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:30:24 AM)
Thats a horror movie, isnt it?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:31:13 AM)
"yes." She grins. "Great show. Watched it in college."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:36:20 AM)
I never was into horror or fantasy much...but then again, its not fiction anymore is it?
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:36:37 AM)
"Sure it is."
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:36:59 AM)
"Our entire life isn't horror. You're a pretty sweet part of mine."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:39:08 AM)
*holds her closer* Oh I didnt mean that...just...you remember that one Virtual Adept girl we met. She swore that the Matrix was a documentary.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:40:14 AM)
"I'm hoping that in our case, the documentary isn't 'The last temptatioin of Christ.' the passion was too...angry."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:41:19 AM)
Didnt see that one. I saw part of the Passion, but its was just....unpleasant.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:42:51 AM)
yeah.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:42:58 AM)
I liked the robot chicken take on that film.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:44:58 AM)
I liked the SouthPark version...Dude, its a snuff flick...
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:45:08 AM)
that was Awesome.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:49:35 AM)
*laughs* Yeah....although, honestly I dont think Id want to see the rest of it now. A little too close to home if you know what I mean.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:50:16 AM)
"I know. it scares me."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:52:57 AM)
*shrugs* Your situation with your dad scares me...at least I have some control over mine.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:54:01 AM)
She shrugs. "I don't have a dad."
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:54:23 AM)
"the men in my life are you and my grandfather."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:55:05 AM)
You cant just wish him away. *pauses* At least I dont think so....it would probably be a bad idea anyway.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:55:57 AM)
"It's not a matter of wishing him away. he donated sperm to my mother. that's the only part of my life he's had any notable part in. Fuck Him."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 1:58:11 AM)
Well...youve got a...prospective...mom and dad who are really pretty nice, if a little crazy, and who like you.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 1:58:38 AM)
that's what matters to me right now.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 2:00:48 AM)
You and them
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 2:00:53 AM)
even if I don't want to be put on display.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 2:03:39 AM)
I guess Im sort of used to it...but you shouldnt be worried about it, as long as you get a dress that isnt hideous.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 2:04:43 AM)
Im pretty sure I can negotiate a bit on the dress. She sort of gave me a codeword on the phone. "Honey, I'm doing this for You."
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 2:09:01 AM)
Yeah, she isnt. Well, she thinks she is....maybe she is. She's doing for her, but.....*shrugs*
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 2:09:30 AM)
so long as I can sneak you into the fitting room when I'm trying on dresses, we're good.
Joshua Davidson (Jul 10, 2010 2:10:36 AM)
*laughs* No I dont think "good" is exactly the right word....fun, yes, good...maybe not so much.
Tarra Shapiro (Jul 10, 2010 2:11:07 AM)
You'd love it. Admit it. the whole "oh god stuffy grandmothers and we're going to get caught" thing.
