The Old Man's Back in Town
“Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.
“Would you turn off that Christmas crap and help me clean up all this blood?” I said, throwing a wet rag at my cousin Buffalo as he nursed a mug of beer at the end of the bar.
Buffalo dodged the rag. “Jeez, Montana, can’t you let a man enjoy a nostalgic moment? Where’s your holiday spirit?”
“I think I flushed it the other night after you came by bearing green and red M&Ms and spiked eggnog.” I dragged the bucket of sudsy water ov...er to the pool of blood, pulling the stools out on each side of Buffalo.
Damn, there was a lot of blood.
The ammonia in my mop water smelled almost clinical, reminding me of a hospital room, blocking out the coppery tang as the red mop-head creaked and swooshed.
He chuckled. “Girl, you really need to find some new friends.”
“And family.”MoreLess
