remember when i joked that i brought some chalk to the ME house and you couldn't tell if i was serious or not and i kept saying i did and you got so mad you pulled over at a little league field and we all got out and watched the game for a bit but you and johnny sat on a different bleacher from the rest of us so that he could calm you down so that you would keep driving? and then we wound up having a fun time w/ old man mcstab you in the face and whatnot and when we got back to the holton you waited in the melon while i went back in the house so that i would have a chance to put the bag back if i had brought it so you would never know if i brought it or not? that is one memory i have of that house. the other memory i have is of telling mami that i had been to her cabin in ME a couple of times and she looked at me dead in the eyes and said, "it's not a cabin, it's a house" and i felt pretty small then and sort of backed away and quietly left the room.
