Haiku vaccine.

foxy: "Happy six months' anniversary."
cali: "What? Oh yeah, that. Thanks."
foxy: "Now, if you were still going to those meetings you could've got a token."
cali: "And I could've told everyone how, if it wasn't for them 'just being there', I wouldn't have made it 'one day at a time' to be there to accept the token."
foxy: "And the higher power - don't forget the higher power."
cali: "Right, can't forget the higher power. Or should that be Higher Power?"
foxy: "So are you going to celebrate?"
cali: "Could do, except I haven't really learned how to do that without .... y'know? Maybe we'll go see V for Vendetta - watching someone blow up Parliament seems as good a way to celebrate as any."
foxy: "Six months alcohol-free, two months nicotine-free and one month SSRI-free. Good thing you've still got your memories, otherwise you'd pretty much be running on a brand new brain. Kinda like that Steve Martin movie."
cali: "The Jerk?"
foxy: "I was thinking more along the lines of "The Man with Two Brains" but that'll work too. So, are you going to post on the blog again?"
cali: "Yeah, I'll post something in the next few days. Least I can do to thank the haiku poets."
foxy: "What is a haiku anyway?"
brad: "Its a style of japanese poetry consisting three lines of five, seven and five phonetic units."
foxy: "Hey, Brad, how's it going? Thought you were doing the Mr. and Mrs. Smith thing in Italy this weekend."
brad: "Nah, the press were all over it like pesto over gnocchi."
cali: "And you were all over my TV screen this morning;
BRAD 72
PITT 66
brad: "Yeah I watched that game, couldn't decide who to root for. Anyway, Angelina didn't want the wedding the same weekend as Milosevic's funeral."
foxy: "I can see that. Apparently his daughter already wants him dug up and reburied in Montenegro."
cali: "How about they dig up and rebury the motherfucker several thousand times. In the same fucking grave."
foxy: "He's kind of down on tyrants today. Anyway, Brad, I've got something for you."
brad: "Serial killer with deadly sin MO systematically murders hollywood movie stars partying on a movie set?"
foxy: "First rule of Ocean's Se7en is never talk about Ocean's Se7en? No, not that one, you'll like this one."
brad: "Okay, where is it?"
foxy: "Stay tuned to this spot."
cali: "Just be very, very patient....."
