*Tarra is lying on the bed, a newspaper in hand, circling apartment listings. The air conditioner is running full blast and she looks like she's sweating to death*

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:35:54 AM)
*Josh comes in, carrying some takeout food, and with some papers in hand* Im not sure exactly what New Orleans Style Fried Chicken is, but we're about to find out.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:36:33 AM)
hopefully it won't make one or both of us sick. the vent in the bathroom doesn't seem to work. I tried taking a shower but I don't think it helped. Oh, and your mother called.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:39:46 AM)
Whats the point in taking a shower? Just walk outside with a bar of soap, its like 130 percent humidity. What did mom say? *puts down the food and papers*

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:40:52 AM)
She asked why we suddenly moved to New Orleans when we were buying a house in Seatte and getting married. And she asked if there was something we weren't tellng her.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:42:31 AM)
I assume you didnt tell her about being chased out of the city by the Technos. *pauses and shrugs* Well at least it didnt take us 40 years to get HERE.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:44:13 AM)
No. I told her that my job had fallen through, that the school here had offered you a full scholarship, and that I was going to work for *she about gags* halliburton.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:46:46 AM)
*nods* Yeah...its gonna be hard explaining to dad exactly WHY a JESUIT university suddenly offered me a full ride in my second year. I dont think....because they want to watch me... is a good answer. *shrugs* And...sorry about the job...but you know it wasnt you.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:48:00 AM)
But....at least theres some good news. *tosses the papers to her as he opens the bag of chicken and stuff*

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:48:19 AM)
It's Ok. I know it wasn't me. I'll find a new one...and I can live poor. Your dad should be proud you got into Loyola. It's one of the top five in the county.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:48:21 AM)
(er country)

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:51:33 AM)
I know. Well, the good part is...theres also some married student housing available pretty reasonably. Its not pretty, but the place in the U District was alot worse.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:52:23 AM)
I thought you had to be married to live in those. last I heard, we were unofficially engaged and shacking up, for better or for worse, with my tardcat. where is tardcat anyway? here, retard retard retard...

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:53:33 AM)
Yeah, and most dont allow pets. But....well....like I said...I think they want to keep a close eye on me. I guess I dont blame them, but it does give me a little bit of leverage.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:54:14 AM)
I think it's a good thing, honey. I really, really do. it makes me nervous, but it's guidance that I've had that you need.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 3:57:42 AM)
*shrugs* Maybe. I think...overall...weve done pretty well on our own. I mean...excluding the last couple weeks, but I dont think anyone could have done any better under the circumstances. If they think they are going to....indoctrinate me or something...I think they are going to be disappointed.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 3:58:34 AM)
It's not a matter of indoctrination. I just don't want to see them wrapping you up in muslin at an opportune moment, letting you bleed out for a moment and then analyzing the wrap to see if it glows in the dark. shroud of turin my left ass cheek.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:00:03 AM)
*snickers, then ponders* Wonder if that thing is real....we could probably tell alot better than some guy trying to carbon date a thread from a corner.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:00:26 AM)
You can find out

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:00:36 AM)
"I'll convert! now take me to the Vatican!"

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:02:00 AM)
Its in Turin....hence the name. *grins* Well I could allways just claim its rightfully mine, I just forgot it the last time.....

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:02:13 AM)
*she just looks at him*

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:02:47 AM)
Joke! *pauses* Little one?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:02:55 AM)
*she keeps staring*

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:03:35 AM)
You know...walk in...look at it....go...oh THERES where I left that thing....wrap it up and take it home?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:03:45 AM)
I thought you did that with the chicken.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:03:54 AM)
Why did the chicken cross the road? suicidal death wish.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:04:39 AM)
Yeah, guess the Christians wouldnt find it all that funny, huh?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:04:49 AM)
they'd crucify you for the suggestoin.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:05:20 AM)
especiialy in this part of the world. I was at wal mart earlier, asked if they had kosher wine. a woman came up and patted my head to see if I had horns.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:05:38 AM)
*laughs* Did she find them?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:05:51 AM)
No. she was very confused. I told her I didn't have them.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:06:28 AM)
You should have explained the Bris to her. Its when the Rabbi removes the jewish babies horns.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:06:46 AM)
I don't think she washed her hands after she went potty. She stunk. No.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:06:48 AM)
(actually,the Moyl)

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:07:57 AM)
She gave me this.*she tosses him a chiristian pamphlet* telling me that abstinence was part of god's plan. she obviously didn't pay attention to her daughter who looked about six months pregnant.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:09:14 AM)
Oh....neat. And I didnt even know Sarah Palin was campaining down here. Did you get her autograph?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:09:41 AM)
This place Terrifies me.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:09:50 AM)
the fact that I am even here is proof of how much I love you

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:12:36 AM)
I love you too...but Im not sure this is proof. Its SOMETHING a little wierd, Ill give you that....half the awakened population of Seattle spontaneously arriving here? Ok, if this is the new promised land, God has a wierd sense of humor, but....maybe we're needed here for....something.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:13:07 AM)
"When you know, Elijah, it'd be nice if you told me."

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:14:14 AM)
If I figure it out, youll be the first to know. Well, second.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:14:34 AM)
that's fantastic. In the meantime...how's the chicken?

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:15:29 AM)
Spicy....*hands her a leg* But not bad. Oh...by the way....I found out something interesting the other day. You know what your name means right?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:15:38 AM)
"Dirt."

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:16:10 AM)
*laughs* Yeah, well...sort of, from the Gaelic...it means earth or hill.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:16:39 AM)
From the gaelic. But I have a misspelled variety of the greek. So it means Stupid Dirt.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:17:54 AM)
*nods* But theres also another derivation. From Sanskrit. It was the name of one of the Hindu goddesses. It literally means, "the Star".

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:18:14 AM)
Like that weird chick from the lost boys?

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:19:27 AM)
Yeah, like that. But what got me about that was....well...remember when your grandfather came to see me the first time? And he brought the other two rabbis?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:19:53 AM)
Yes. I do remember that. *she leans over and puts her head on his thigh*

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:20:53 AM)
They came because you called. So...not only did three magi from the east come calling...but they did it....following the Star. *laughs and shrugs*

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:22:12 AM)
"wow. And for a moment, I didn't thik I would play into the myth of your ego any more. I was so wrong. *she makes a tickling grab for his ribs*

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:26:02 AM)
*grabs her arm and pulls her, hugging and holding her, laughing* I think maybe thats the whole point. I would have to have MAJOR problem if I took this seriously. Its like god saying...ok, youve got something to do, but dont be ridiculous about it.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:26:58 AM)
...and not being ridiculous about it...is why we're in a hotel room in *insert random string of curses* louisiana listening to the drunk bikers next door having sex with inflatable sheep.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:30:10 AM)
*shrugs* Im not sure those were inflatable. No, I dont know why we are in. *string of curses* Louisiana. It was pretty much as much a surprise to me as it was to you. But its not Jerusalem.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:30:50 AM)
No, it's not.. And...I'm with you. So as long as I'm with you, it could be Jerusalem. And I'd be happy.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:32:14 AM)
No you wouldnt. Ive been there. It sucks. Worse than here. Lets face it...Christian fundamentalists are annoying but they have absolutely nothing on our people. In large groups? Oh my god.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:32:54 AM)
Places I've never been. I'll go ahead and stay in my mind that the promised land is actually Florida.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:34:30 AM)
Probably...there are more synagogues in Boca than in Tel Aviv.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:34:46 AM)
I believe that.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:36:26 AM)
And I know you. I think you're gooing to go look that up. That's fine. you do that. I'm going to find something to sleep in.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:36:45 AM)
*points at the bed* I suggest...that?

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:37:15 AM)
yes. I was thinking that.

Tarra Shapiro (Jul 5, 2010 4:37:20 AM)
tardboy and I can go to bed.

Joshua Davidson (Jul 5, 2010 4:38:23 AM)
Ill be right in. Ill just put away the rest of the chicken.
