Spicey Comes to Visit

 

Geordie and Maggie make the best of their otherwise dreary lives.

 

Much of this consists of Geordie just lying there Waiting for Godot...but he just NEVER seems to come. Still, he waits...and waits...

 

Maggie (as Maggedy Ann) pretends that she is a rag doll.  She does this for hours and hours on end.

Geordie after enjoying yet another cup of chamomile tea, the highlight of his day! He is tired of listening to talk radio, too.

"It was a boring magazine anyway.  Like I really give a rip if Regis is yanked?  Are you sure that there was no Valerian Root in that tea?"

"Who's at the door? Maggie, you get it!"

Ch. Scotch Broom Braemar Spicey!  Life will never be the same.

The mood changes around here.  Geordie  remembers the ballroom dancing lessons his mom forced him take in Junior High and finally understands!

She's one I definitely don't mind having around. 

"Would you like to see my etchings?"

"Are you wearing perfume or is it just you?"

 

Geordie and Spicey can't seem to decide what to do next.  Dinner?  Dancing? Perhaps a 1971 cult horror film like Willard?

"Pastoral"-- OR-- it's about time someone mowed this lawn!

 

Spicey is Acting Director of Recreation in residence.  She is relentless and demands a lot of Maggie and Geordie, who complain, although Geordie knows that some "perks" follow, so he does whatever she asks him to do.

 

"Isn't it rich? Aren't we a pair?"

 

"Afterglow?"

Food, the great unifier of Cairns.

Girl Talk...Maggie and Spicey talk about matters of consequence now that Geordie has stopped telling Maggie to "stay away from my bitch...or you'll regret it."

Geordie and Spicey contemplate their future--which includes family, vacations, and the challenge of maintaining a long distance relationship.
