a nun's portrait

CAROLYN ASKED ME TO POSE AS A NUN FOR AN ART CLASS. I BORROWED A HABIT FROM MY FRIEND,SISTER MARY THERESE AND WENT TO THE REGENCY TOWERS ON JAMES STREET TO HER CLASS. THERE WERE TWO OBNOXIOUS MEN ON THE ELEVATOR AS WE ENTERED, RECOUNTING THEIR EXPLOITS OF THE NIGHT BEFORE. i TURNED TO CAROLYN AND SAID, "WE HAVE TO GO BACK TO MY HOUSE--i LEFT THE OVEN ON. AND MY HUSBAND WILL BE FURIOUS IF HE GETS HOME BEFORE ME." OF COURSE THIS STOPPED THEIR BOASTING AND STARED AT US. wE BROKE OUT IN LAUGHTER AND GOT OFF THE ELEVATOR.

i NEVER SAW THE PAINTINGS FINISHED AND IF SOMEONE OF HER MANY STUDENTS OF YEARS GONE BY HAS A PORTRAIT OF ME IN A NUN'S OUTFIT i'D LOVE TO SEE IT.

CAROLYN CAME TO SEE ME WHEN I HAD SLIPPED A DISC AND SAT ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO MY BED AND READ BEAUTFULLY  AND SOFTLY IN HER MELODIC SOUTHERN DRAWL FOR HOURS. WHAT A FRIEND!!!
