Overheard: Texas

“This is how it rains in Texas.”
“You see that, Riders? Since you came we’re showing it to you.”
“Oh…what’s the difference?”
“The drops bigger.”

“Where is Riders? Did she go out?”
“Riders is in the car.”
“No, no, Riders is right here.”
“Where is she?–Oh my God!”
“Well, we have so many creepy dolls already it was hard to tell!”

(“That’s the nicest thing anyone has said to me all week.”
“YOU’RE WELCOME.”)
