RE: Sitting in a Field of Slow-Simmering Strawberries

in #life2 years ago

Ha! Oh you make me laugh. If we stayed too long I get the feeling the field hands would have picked us like some over-ripe berries and tossed us across a few rows and out of their way. You remember the movie Matilda from the '90s? I just watched it because we just finished reading the book. Anyway, in it Trunchbull tosses children around, and they have a tendency to bounce about a bit like balls and not get hurt. That's kind of how I see it all going down - us bouncing around a strawberry field while the field-hands continue to mistake us for overgrown strawberries. Anyway...the flight home was lovely. Thank you for asking.

Sort:  

I never saw the movie!! But I did read the book a long time ago.
Aren't kids built to bounce anyway?
I think I'm too old to bounce anymore. Just parts of me bounce more than others.

Ditto. I too am too old for too much bouncing. Or bouncing at all. If only I could fit another too in there.
