spicapalooza

[opabinia]

Dinner at my parents' tonight. There were about 20 spics of various flavors there: Beaners, Dominicans, PanFlute-Playing Mountain Spics, 'Ricans, you name it. The voices were loud. The food was to die for. The rum flowed. There were chicken flautas and pork and rice-and-beans and flan and mystery foods and cake and more. Dad busted out a bottle of the best damn rum you can get from Puerto Rico. Even with that stuff flowing through our veins, sadira and I decided to made tracks as soon as the Spanish guitars and tone-deaf voices sprang up. The woman tolerated the night pretty well.

There was a tasty fruit tart, too, Sadira says.

And there was this fucked-up rattling instrument made from strung-together dried goat hooves. It was grotesque and fascinating.

I should buy a copy of that. My favorite is still The Bungalow House.

Wow, that actually sounds kinda interesting and tasty.. maybe because my family is so damned boring.

Brown people are weird.

We're great lovers, though.
