Check out my old squeeze, Mary from Tacoma, Seattle. Isn't she cute? We were live in pseudo couple for half a year around first half of 2001. We even went to Asturias one time. It was definitely interesting seeing it with her.

Here's some interesting quotes from Mary:

I want to be an FBI agent, I'm not sure if I can jump a six foot high wall though. Also they do lie detector tests and I shouldn't be associated with pot smokers so you better quit.

My dad worked at area 51 putting tiles on the stealth bombers.

You're the only person I've known that I've liked less after getting to know them.

One of my female coworkers is cute, I'd like to kiss her...
.
I don't think Kurt Cobain suicided, I think he was murdered.

She was a funny and vivacious girl no question. I also liked her parents who flew out from Washington and stayed with us. We went to Paris by train. Mary used to stand in front of the mirror in our little love nest and sing, 'I got your boyfriend! I got your boyfriend', and admire her physique I guess. She was only four foot ten but all woman. Her mom was from Korea and had kind of weak English. Her dad was Puerto Rican from NYC I think.

That bar the urogallo was my dad's dad's and my parents worked there at one point. The old lady is said grandfather's half sister from a little fling and that's her daughter and grandkids. The kids' dad is Catalan, who, we all know, were propped up against the asturians by the big bad Russians during the civil war in Spain.

See there's Mary in Asturias on a farm. To think my genes were made to work on a farm up there in the mountains. Maybe I'll go back there one day.


I say the Catalans were against the asturians but actually the civil war was a lot more complicated and nuanced. A bunch of guys could be pro team commie and just get rounded up and shot in the back of the head next to a pit and noone would document it much.

Yep, it was difficult losing Mary, let's look at more interesting Mary quotes:

Can I f#ck you up the arse with a double ended dildo Ben?

After talking to my father on the phone: he sounds so innocent!!

After hearing my brother say to her, in person: Mary Mary quite contrary; why would he say that? That's spooky like (paraphrasing Mary but that's exactly what my brother said.

On the time some family members stressed out smoking at the dinner table after I threatened to kick someone's arse: wow I wish I could have taken a photo, that was a memorable scene (again paraphrasing).

Why are you walking like the cop guy in terminater??!!

You sound like a retard running up to me saying Mary Mary Mary like a retard (probably due to generally excessive alcohol/ pot consumption)

Hold on will get a clip of terminater cop guy, he's not real bubbly like,

Oh yeah my favorite quote: my big man! - she certainly was bubbly

Other memorable Mary quotes, during heated, although not angry moments: you really are the king! And: look at you! You're evil!

Haha.... Now I know how a previous girlfriend in Spain felt when I called her my jinete, amused.

Another time Mary reported she had taken my favorite mix cassette on the train and got scared when she heard the supergrass song, that's funny, but more in a scare your buddies by pretending to hear voices telling you to burn everyone kind of way (and then responding to yourself, no I don't want to they're my friends!)

There's no doubting Mary was fun and cute. I also admired she was trilingual as I was starting to lay some linguistic foundations for learning French in those days, which is still a work in process as it's a tricky language to master. I found it interesting she was willing to wear the same jacket everyday without caring what anyone thought about her. She was certainly practical and smart. She also got some of her university tuition free for not being white I think. I wouldn't hold that against her.


In those days I first realized the soothing nature of baby sounds such as goo goo. I remember Mary came in from work one day and give me a squeeze on the cheek and said goo goo  goo goo. She sure was in a good mood.

Generally I think I was a big disappointment for her because I was alcoholic and sometimes would have to just go off and drink various litres of wine and that was totally alien to her and I could never smoke much pot either. I just couldn't help myself coz I was an addict for aforementioned two drugs. But definitely having then losing Mary affected my future life choices so now I haven't smoked any pot in over ten years and rarely get inebriated. Can't seem to quit cigarettes though, Mary wouldn't approve, I don't either! That's addiction for you.
