...
srealisma
i
really
need
to
make
it
to
the
Greek
Roman
statue
stuff
before
Picasso
turns
the
place
into
a
Ringling's Barnum
and
Bailey
sub
woofer
zone
.
Lichtenstein
was
kinda
eh
.
I
was
disappointed
.
I
mean
I
was
wowed
with
color
,
but
I
was
also
disappointed
. (
I
ran
into
alumni
from
my
college
on
an
outing
by
the
giftshop
t
-shirts.
She
chose
the
unartsy signatures.
I
chose
the
Frank
Lloyd
Wright
pattern
of
Saguaro
cactus
.
They
were
on
sale
.
She
didn't
want
to
talk
to
me
really
but
I
insisted.
I
sincerely
felt
the
urge
to
improve
the
health
-factor
for
her
(alumni
wife
i
talked
to
.)
Thinking
there
were
probably
whole
worlds
of
garden
reality
she
was
nerdily
missing
.
She
probably
thought
I
was
off
my
rocker
weird
.
Which
I
am
.
yeah
.
have
a
bad
habit
of
always
trying
to
talk
about
what
really
needs
talking
about
whether
i
know
what
to
say
or
not
.
and
if
i
fail
to
think
of
it
i
just
don't
talk
.
eh
chances
are
she
was
the
exact
same
way
.)
anyway
,
yeah
yeah
whatever
.
