carry out

i made us a nice
garden salad, and
some salmon with
dill sauce, she
says on the phone.
i can heat it up
when i get to your
house. i also cut
up a nice selection
of cheeses and made
us a plate with
crackers. is there
anything else you'd
like. and you say,
umm, yes there
is, aren't you going
by Peking West on
the way over?
how about picking
me up some fried
rice and a couple
of those egg rolls,
would you, and
an order of kung
pao chicken, no, on
second thought
make that general
tao's chicken. maybe
a side order of
those teriyaki
ribs, okay, okay,
and a coke. one
of those liter
bottles.
oh, and get
some extra hot
mustard and some
packets of that
duck sauce. i love
that stuff. and
soy sauce. that
should do it.
don't forget
the fortune
cookies. can you
get a mai tai to
go, with the little
umbrellas and fruit,
if so, one of
those too, or two
if you want one
with your salmon.
