Grey Briefs - Tumblr Posts
Brad wore grey briefs because elephants could remember things.
“Chris. Honey. Listen. I got to go. This bed is floating again….”
(garble on the other end)
“Yep. Ok. Yeah. I know. I miss you too. Can’t wait to get back. I would like to be in our bed with you. It touches the ground.”
(Brief phone garble)
“Totally agree. I don’t get it either. I really thought future technologies would be more helpful. I mean, one too may hair dryers plugged in at this hotel, and you move from a gentle hover to a very rude whiplash of a wake up call in the space of three feet. I’ll tell you what’s really messed up tho…This phone has a cord.”
(Phone garble)
“For real for real. Yes. I could die by strangulation at any second. You know what?This hotel is on a crash course for one hell of a lawsuit. I can see four, maybe five people getting killed before someone with enough money and connections to go to court comes along. The place is spendy but not exactly regal.”

“Well listen, its been full on with this crap for all of us since 1945. I’m all for global therapy. It’s just needed.”
(More phone garble)
“Yep. With you there. Whatever critics say, Cold War is still war. It’s literally right there in the name. Denying that is even more ridiculous than climate change. Who knew we could exceed in all the wrong places? We’ve got quite a bit to work thru huh? I see how we call it the ‘work’ now. Ok. Listen. As I mentioned, this bed is on the move. I’ve got to go. Wish me luck. Love you. Will text to let you know I survived in the morning ok?”
(Brief phone garble)
“Ok. Lots of love then. Good night Chris. I will text in the AM. I love you Brad Bradly.”
Chris hung up and let out a sigh. Saying it outloud did it no favors. There was no way Chris was taking that name in marriage.
