The village idiot of Las Vegas and his Roxy issue.

"Now listen carefully Jethro. The answer to your question is not no...it's fuck no!" - I was hoping for better results when I called last night. The hope was she would consider giving me another chance. Once again my hopes were dashed - "Listen idiot, I am very busy and you are interrupting me. I don't have time for bull shit right now." No matter her disposition I am one hundred percent convinced Roxy is the girl for me - I tell her such for the hundredth time - "Look Jethro," she says with an irritating voice, "I have a new boyfriend now. A real man, a man who knows how to take care of a women like me. Something you are incapable of doing."

I get it - she deserves better than me. The thing she is discounting is the upside I possess - I reiterate the belief, she says - "Jethro, don't give me any bull shit about how you are going to get a bunch of Mexicans in a data base or all the Chinese restaurants you signed up. No one gives a fuck! You are just too stupid to realize it."

The underlying problem in our relationship boils down to a lack of vision on her part. - "Babe," I say as I ready myself to tell her my belief once again - but before I am able to bring my thoughts to words - she pipes - "How many fucking times do I have to tell you? Don't call me Babe!" - I apologize for the breach of etiquette and then say - "Roxy, all I want to do is make you happy. I want to take care of you. I am positive one of these days I will have money running out my ass. When it happens I will give you everything! All I ask is you be patient."

After the statement I hear her murmur something on the other end of the line, she then says crisply - "Look, why don't you go chase every Mexican in North Las Vegas around and see if you can get them to a data base. If that doesn't work, and it won't! Then you should take your stupid ass back to Chinatown and see if the China man is interested in your idea. Oh, that's right, you struck out there as well."

A friend of mine asked why I keep pursuing Roxy - "She is sort of a bitch dude," is an abbreviated way in how he describes her: His comments caused some deep thoughts with me - I love her. That much is obvious. But beyond that, and this will sound very bizarre to most, it's just the nastier and more standoffish she is towards me - the more I crave her. I know. I have some serious issues.
