Pulling Weeds

“Did you meet anybody else?” Brat Boy asked.

“A guy named Wedman that everybody calls Weedman.”

“He smokes a lot of weed?” Brat Boy asked.

“He weeds a lot. He’s into gardening.  He’s also in recovery from a porn addiction. Said pulling the weeds of that obsession meant getting rid of files on his phone and laptop, his work computer, and stuff hidden on his wife’s computer.”

“His wife’s computer? Seriously? Why doesn’t he just not use it?”

“He said if you don’t pull all the weeds, they grow back, with deeper roots. He had old magazines hidden in the garage,” I said. “They were his father’s.”

“And all you’re leaving me is a broken down lawnmower,” Brat Boy said, laughing.

Today I’ll pull the weeds.
