Theater of Cruelty. I was performing a
monologue I had authored myself, adapted
from a tirade I frequently use to tell off
defenseless civil servants at the post office or
DMV. Unbeknownst to me, Sophie (ever the
multi-tasker) was simultaneously choosing
fabrics for her upcoming Spring line. So,
blinded by the spotlights, all I hear from the
dark abyss of the theater is Sophie's
merciless voice shouting,
YES...NO...YES...NO...BORING...TOO
BUSY...NOT MY VISION...YES..NO..! Well, I
don't need to tell you that even getting hired
as an extra in the Theater of Cruelty
inevitably leads to superstardom without
exception. So when I heard NO, I reeled in
my performance and tried to be subtle. When
I heard YES, I turned my performance up a
notch and gave and gave until it HURT. And
when I heard BORING, I added an accent.
Well, Sophie hired me and I heard later it was
because I took direction well. Who's laughing
now?
she is very nice, yet can turn on an evil
person without a moment's hesitation. If
I asked her to scratch someone's eyes
out for me, she would. You must respect
anyone who can invent a Theater of
Cruelty. Plus, she's a really snazzy
dresser, and has lots of keen beauty
products. Oh, AND she's smarter than
everyone, except maybe Scott.
cookie, filled with arsenic.
strangely comforted, by the
realization that conservatism had
become the new liberalism for 2004.
and immediately moved in and lived with
her for about 15 years or so. I suppose
we didn't have much control over our
living arrangements, being siblings, but
if I had it to do all over again... I
would have hid my cherished childhood
toys better so that she couldnt
heartlessly SELL THEM ON EBAY FOR 5
DOLLARS, I LOVED THAT BASH-O-SAURUS
SOPHIE I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU. But
seriously though, Sophie is a real
stand-up lady. Perhaps a little *too*
into a certain housepet, but who am I to
judge?
a bitch. VERY lucky.
contradictions. Caring, yet brutally honest.
Approachable, yet fiercely protective.
Gorgeous, yet strikingly unique. Well read,
but not pretentious. Demanding, yet
forgiving. Warm, yet mysterious. Brilliant,
yet modest. Doomed to be the star, but
desperate for only a supporting role. Scott is
a lucky son of a bitch. And he knows it.
Mere mortals are wise to steer clear of
Sophie for at least 24 hours after Clay cuts
her hair. You can't tell her a goddamn thing.
It's glorious.
she could topple third world
governments with a well-timed insult
and a bemused stare. the girl has
powers of which mere mortals only
dream; and, i suspect, a finely tuned,
long-term plan to employ them to
everyone's detriment but her own. get
on her good side now.
