Lest I Forget (14)
“Of course it matters. You can have whatever you want. I don’t want you to settle just because your ex is a kitchen snob.”
“Gabby’s here?!” she asked, and for a second I thought she was serious until I saw the evil glint in her eyes.
“I hate you so much sometimes,” I told her through a giggle, but I hugged her to me for a second anyway.
“Is white okay with you? I know you said it was, but are you sure?” she asked, glancing over to the paint section.
“I think it should be some kind of green. I don’t know, white just seems like it’d be too bright, you know? And green’s really easy to coordinate with.”
“Yeah, I was kinda thinking about that. Jenny’s going with me tomorrow to look at towels and new dishes and whatever before I leave for Chicago. I just wanted to get an idea so we can maybe paint when I come home,” she said, shaking her head at Bette, who was going off on another refrigerator tangent near us.
“Green’s actually a really good color for a kitchen,” Tina said as Bette started to get really into her tangent. This made Bette stop and stare at her for a minute. I looked at Alice and that almost did us in, but we somehow managed not to laugh at her expression.
“Do you want a green kitchen?” Bette asked. “I should have asked you before I had ours redone.” She said it as if she’d never really given it an iota of thought, and come to think of it, she probably never had. Still, it was pretty cute, and Alice and I weren’t the only ones who thought so. Tina took Bette’s hand and tried to reassure her it was all right and she didn’t care about the color of their kitchen, and I think they forgot about us all together as they walked through the home store holding hands. Alice and I just looked at each other and grimaced.
“Cute, but a little sickening regardless,” Alice muttered. “Why the hell are we looking at lamps, anyway? Shouldn’t we be sticking to appliances?” she asked as I led her to the lighting section.

MT, I missed reading this story. I am thankful for your update because I want to know how A was progressing along and hear more from D talking about the rest of their years together. I am sorry that I was unable to comment for the four posts. Now that I am all caught up, I can give me two cents. Seriously, your storytelling skill is superb and I am so taken by the emotions that went along with each scene. Given both of them had issues, their love for each other carried them through out their years together. I am certain that as hard as the current situation was, together, they would survive this ordeal. As for this update, the shopping scene was hilarious with B & T making out in the public and A & D’s reaction was super cute. I hope in time we will learn more about A’s reason for not talking about her writing and her insecurity of being away on business trip. I think there was more to just about her father and mother’s time apart. Love how Shane was helping out with the shelves even though she was hurt. Judging from Jenny’s reaction, were they an item already? And you ended it with a smile from A. Just perfect!! Lastly, I sincerely hope that you will be able to resolve your financial soon. If you cannot post, we will understand. Most importantly, is your health. Whatever it is, I hope you get better soon. Thank you and please take care of yourself.
I laughed out loud at this — I could just see Alice saying it: “Gabby’s here?!” Hee! Green kitchen? Yay! They heard me! The whole kissing conversation was very Danish. I understand both Alice keeping her writing to herself and Dana being upset about it. Poor Alice seems to have a lot on her mind. Love Dana’s idea on the outdoor office. It sounds way cool. The kid talk made me go all gooey inside. Great update, MT!! Thank you so much!! Thanks also for letting us know what’s going on — I would have gotten worried. I hope you feel better soon, hon!
HOPE HOPE HOPES you get better soon and i know all about the money thing, sucks! You have my sympathy. I’m loving this post almost makes me want to cry knowing that Dana is telling this story to Alice…*tear* For someone whos voice made their living it must really blow for her not being able to speak verbally! I’m loving how supportive Dana is..Really want to know more about the history, wonder why Al wont talk to Dane about the writing thing? Dana is such a sweetheart just trying to take care of her wondeful Al…Great job MT! I love it!
weeeehh!!! The Danish making fun of Tibette had me giggling. That was cute. I loved it, I think it’s pretty neat for the group to help each other out a lot. Dana is very sweet to Alice and stuff, that’s one of the best things in the world. Thanks for the chapter. I hope you feel better soon girl. I’m cancelling cable as well, no tv for me now but hey, we can be broke together. *shrug* hehe Take care MT. x
