"My Dixie Wrecked"
My son often leaves yellow sticky messages
for me on my computer monitor, things like
"I need pencils" or "PTA wants money"... All
manner of semi-important things I generally
need reminding of get posted this way.
It works. I usually take care of the message
right away, or by days end if at all possible.
One day I went to the computer and found
a yellow Post-it with the following note;
"My Dixie wrecked."
I read it a few times but whatever it meant
refused to sink in. I tried putting it out of my
mind but it kept coming back. My Dixie wrecked,
my dixie wrecked... Wierd how that puzzling
note refused to leave my awareness....
It would go quietly to the back of my mind and
play over and over but never would it leave. I'd
bring it to the front of my attention and review
it closely; My Dixie wrecked... Hmmm....I got
up for coffee and muttered to myself; "My Dixie
wrecked" I wonder what that means?
I even said it out loud a few times; "My Dixie
wrecked! What's the meaning of that?
I even asked my Mom; I said to her; "My Dixie
wrecked. What does that mean?
I'd change the accents; my-dixie-Wrecked.
My-dixie-wrecked. My-Dixie-wrecked. It was
driving me nuts.
My son finally got home from school and I
blurted out...
"My Dick's Erect! What the hell does that mean?"
My son is such a creep. Sometimes I think he's
even better than me.
