" I said "Take what you can get. You weren't a good Lineman before the accident." He walked to his car and drove off. I hope he found his California d...eams. I never heard from him again. I took a call in South Dakota on a wood highline and it was hot and dusty there. They have a 10 year drought cycle there. In the wheat fields I saw the wheat stalks were very far spaced from each other and very short. I was in a local bar talking with some local farmers one day. Of course, the next wheat crop. My head was dizzy and my legs shaking when he lifted me easily off the floor and placed me in his bed. I remember the smell of his sheets and how they reminded me of him sitting at the diner talking with me over coffee and raisin toast. I was embarrassed, mortified really, by how wet and ready I was for him. He placed his hand between my thighs and I whimpered like a beaten dog. He shushed me gently and told me it was ok and that he was very happy that I responded to him that way. It made him. After eight years of marriage it was clear he wasn't happy. He wanted children and a wife who would take care of them and that was simply not possible while she was building her career. The fact was, she had grown as a woman over the last six years, and he was still the same immature frat guy she married when she was twenty-four. 'I'm so tired of his shit,'.After ordering another drink, she asked the bartender for a cigarette. Cassidy didn't often smoke but figured she could use it. The party. .." Indeed," chuckled Jenny."Ooh, fireworks," said Pamela gleefully clapping her hands."Another one in the know," I chuckled."Oops, sorry Alan," giggled Jenny."It's for the children mainly," I replied with a happy smile."Display ones?" asked Pamela."Yes, no individual ones. They're going off about 9-ish at the edge of the lake woods where everyone on the front lawn can see them," I replied."Lovely," said Pamela with a large grin. "I love fireworks," After that it's just dancing until about.
