Warrior Crabs



            I was working as some kind of walking escort for sex trade workers. I took a woman to a nightclub and was waiting for her outside with this other guy where there was a little rectangular glass casing in the sand. Crabs were in the sand and crawling inside where they lived but inside they were all fighting each other in a free-for-all. One could hear their claws clicking and the also of tiny metal swords striking against each other.
            Every other day I do song practice entirely in English. While on Monday I had found that there were not a lot of songs in French with the letter “f” in them and producing that slightly slurpy sound as I pronounced them through my missing tooth, on Tuesday I realized that almost every song in English has a lot more “f” sounds. I really have to get this problem fixed, but when I called Smile City there was still no answer. Hey have nothing on their website to indicate that they are closed the entire week after Christmas, but I did notice when I looked that many dental clinics do take the whole time between Christmas and New Years off. I have observed that a lot of the employees of my clinic are Hispanic, so I assume they are also Catholic.
            I had to do laundry on Tuesday for the sake of my underwear and a couple of other items.

            I watched this year’s Doctor Who Christmas Special. It aired on Christmas day but I downloaded it the day after. I think last year it took a week for someone to upload the Doctor Who Christmas special. I won’t reveal the story but it’s set in New York City and very entertaining. The Doctor’s companion was an alien named Nardole who’s head was removed last Christmas but somehow he’s whole again. He’s played by Matt Lucas who was one of the stars of hilarious British comedy series, “Little Britain”. He played several very funny characters on Little Britain, including Marjorie Dawes who is a somewhat despicable person who runs a weight loss group of which she is the only member that doesn’t lose weight. There’s a member of East Indian descent who speaks perfect English but whenever she talks Marjorie keeps asking her to repeat herself because she can’t understand her accent; another character is a fast talking teenage girl named Vicky Pollard who is always in trouble and begins every explanation by rapidly arguing, “Yeabutyeahbutyeahbut” and then she very quickly says a bunch of gossip about other teenagers; another is Andy, an apparently wheelchair bound guy being taken care of by Lou. Whenever Lou isn’t looking Andy gets up and does things like gets into a fist fight with someone or any number of other things one would have to be abled to do; the funniest character though is Daffyd Thomas, who thinks he is the only Gay in his village and goes to ridiculous lengths to deny that his town is actually full of other Gay people.
