There she is. Panini in hand. Too-small yellow track suite barely fitting around her large pentagonal frame. Your mother in all her glory... before the bulls.
"Just let'em loose" she cried. Half eaten panini flings into the air as she hits the hard syllables.
Your mother wants to run with the bulls. I say let her. She could use the exercise for one. More importantly though, the idea of her large yellow covered body getting skewered like some piece of cheese at a fondue party somehow seems appealing. And where's your dad in all this?
"Who cares! He's a bum," she bellows. Ouch, the truth hurts... or is that heartburn? She can't tell anymore. Better to wash the pain away with a diet coke.
AND THEY'RE OFF!!... the bulls that is.
They're coming, and coming fast. Almost like they can smell her candied sweat. I've heard people describe yellow as a calming colour, but not to these bulls. The impact was striking. Red and yellow and red and yellow and red. Sort of like a sunset running down a storm drain.
Tomorrow she will make pancakes for breakfast and call her friend Sally to tell her the news.
