"I said I got a little women and she won't be true. On Sunday morning when we go down to church see the men standin' in line. Who they say come pray to the Lord when my little girl look so fine - and in the evening when the sun is sinkin' low and everybody's with the one they love - I walk the town just a searchin' all around...looking for my street corner girl."
Hey, Hey, What can I do? ~ Led Zeppelin
Roxy walks in and the first thing she says - "I don't have a lot of time Jethro. I have to be back at the Cosmo by eight." I understand time is money with a girl like her, so I lead us to the bedroom - "You can at least say hi," she says as I toss her on the bed - "Hi, I missed you," I murmur as I put my head between her legs - "Oh God Jethro! Your million dollar tongue and your stupid fucking blog. That's all you have going for you...Oh God!" In the end we spent maybe fifteen to twenty minutes skin to skin. The remainder was spent on pillow talk.
"Jethro, you told me you were losing weight. I don't like it when you lie to me," she says as she pinches a roll of fat from my stomach. Actually, I am down ten pounds from Christmas, I need to lose a considerable amount more though. I tell her such and she says - "Why don't you try yoga? Remember the time at Hard Rock when I demonstrated a few yoga stances for you?" Guys drool over Roxy wherever she goes. She's tan, tone, witty, opinionated and a lot of times ruthless - "Have to be Jethro. It's my business," is what she always tells me...Anyhoo, I am the fortunate one when we are together.
"Jethro, when are you going to realize no one cares about any of your stupid ideas?" She is referring to my beliefs on future Asian consumption and how investors can benefit from it - I don't feel like discussing it. Instead, I tell her this - "I love you so much that I don't even know what to say. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life. One of these days I am going to make you mine all mine!" Girls like Roxy cost lots of money. I just wish she would look at the big picture, I tell her again and she says - "You have been saying that since the day we met Jethro. Where is this big fucking picture you keep talking about?"
I told myself I wouldn't do this, get all emotional when it is time for her to leave. I did any way - "Roxy, I love you more than anything in the world. Do you love me?" - "I do love you Jethro, just not like you love me," is her reply. I ask her to explain her answer - "You know Jethro? You and I are different for each other. I give you something you want. Not to mention, I am good at it. In turn, you give me something way different from my norm. Does that make sense to you.? Think of it this way. Because I am tired of explaining it to you. You are my adorable Jethro from Kansas and sometimes it works for me." She kisses me on the cheek, gets out of bed, puts her clothes back on and immediately leaves without saying goodbye.
