Funny Friday
Funny Friday/24 – For the Love of Cooking
Trad_imento:
Lei è in cucina, in piedi.
Mi volta le spalle.
Addosso, ha solo la mia maglietta, quella in cui le piace dormire.
Sta preparando la nostra colazione: uova sode.
Mi ha sentito entrare, ne sono certo,
l’ho capito dal movimento dolce delle spalle anche se non sono del tutto sveglio.
Si gira e mi guarda con quei suoi occhi unici e dice dolcemente:
“Fai l’amore con me, proprio adesso: ma subito, però!”
Sto sognando oppure oggi dev’essere il mio giorno fortunato,
penso.
Non ho esitato.
L’ho presa tra le mie braccia e le ho dato tutto me stesso, proprio lì, in cucina, sul tavolo traballante.
“Grazie” mi dice lei, dopo, gli occhi luminosi, tornando ai fornelli.
Felice e tuttavia perplesso, non riesco a non chiederle:
“A cosa devo…?”
“Il timer si è rotto”.
Funny Friday/23.5 – Fishing
Funny Friday/20
A young Technician and his General Manager board a train headed through the mountains. They can find no place to sit except for two seats right across the aisle from a young woman and her grandmother.
After a while, it is obvious that the young woman and the young tech are interested in each other, because they are giving each other looks.
Soon the train passes into a tunnel and it is pitch black. There is a sound of a kiss followed by the sound of a slap. When the train emerges from the tunnel, the four sit there without saying a word.
The grandmother is thinking to herself, “It was very brash for that young man to kiss my granddaughter, but I’m glad she slapped him.”
The General Manager is setting there thinking, “I didn’t know the young tech was brave enough to kiss the girl, but I sure wish she hadn’t missed him when she slapped and hit me!”
The young woman was sitting and thinking, “I’m glad the guy kissed me, but I wish my grandmother had not slapped him!”
