…there is only three creatures what laughs…loons and hyenas and humans…of these loons is the least offensive…

Brandy Alexander sat naked and cross-legged on the bed with her chin cupped in the palm of one hand.

She had been studying me for some time.

At last she shook her head.

She said Purdue why is it I never tire of you?

I shrugged.

Brandy said oooooh wow!

She said encore encore encore!

I said baby if you get an encore it’ll be with mirrors.

Brandy said not sex Purdue.

She said the shrug.

She said shrug for me.

I said I just did.

Brandy said I mean again.

I said aw come on Brandy.

I said any damn fool can shrug.

Brandy said yes but not like you Purdue.

She said please?

I shrugged.

Brandy said oh my God that just drives me nuts!

She said it’s so damned sexy!

She threw herself on top of me.

She put her lips close to mine.

She said one more time Purdue.

I said Brandy one of us is crazy and I got a hunch it doesn’t stop there.

I dozed off to the sound of Brandy’s musical laughter.

It was a nice sound to doze off to.
