Blanca after the Surgery
Lawd it's so hot I'm just stickie
and the ice has already melted in my tea
and this pillow
this pillow is too soft and
this blanket is too damn thin and not too clean. Tony.
TONY!
yes, Blanca
Tony!
YES. BLANCA.
Tony, I've been
waiting for you to come back with the chips
And Tony, it's so hot,
can you turn the fan a little this way and when
will the chicken wings be done?
they still have to thaw, Blanca.
I like them frozen. I can't trust waiting
I might die so quick what with all this surgery I've been havin'.
I think I might have a scar and I'm so thirsty and this ice tea
is ice hot. Take it! Tell me again
what They did to me...Tony.
(They took away your right to
have children, thank God.)
what did you say? I think my hearing
may be weaker and I think I might have a little fever.
for the 17th time
I said you were spayed...way last week, Blanca. you are fine.
and what did They say about the stitches?
They say the stitches will dissolve
beneath your skin, get lost in your flesh
and will I have a scar?
All spays have a scar, Blanca. First They make
it so you can't have babies and then they give you a scar.
apparently there are too many babies like you already.
...(are the wings ready?)
I'll go check.
