Don’t you just love that feeling when there’s something you’ve been dying to say for a long long time and you just could never find the time or place to say it but then you suddenly have the chance and you jump on it? Yeah, me too.

Saturday, 9 August, 2008 at 6:56Yeah, I’m still up. Norco can suck it. First it makes me sleepy. Then it keeps me up all night. It’s bipolar. I, on the other hand, am not.
So I saw your bit of fabulosity that you posted over at my place, and I just had to stop by and do my daily Lady sacred ritual. YOU KICK ASS. Thank you for making my blog a better place. You rock my world. Like HARD.
Thank you :)

Mike Marshall
Saturday, 9 August, 2008 at 12:02Hey Lady! An open reply to an open letter to asparagus.
Goddamn! Are you puttin’ me on man?
Are you tryin’ to make me wonder just who the hell I am?
Well goddamn! Why is it that you don’t understand
Well I’m bloody sick and tired,
of being treated like a garbage can!
Well I know what you’re tryin’ to do,
but let me say this, fuck, you ain’t dealin’ with a fool!
Ah, you’re so fuckin’ cool
Well maybe, I’ve been a little hard on ya see,
but the burnin’ in my soul is drivin’ outta my tree
Well I’m sorry, asparagus, if I caused you any pain
But I paid my dues, got nothin’ to lose and nothin’ to gain
Well I did not mean to be rude,
so let me conclude this, with a letter to you…..
Dear Asparagus,
It seems like years since I felt your slimey skin,
and I know I really shouldn’t say all this,
cause they tell me I’m only imagining you went away.
But it’s hard you see. I remember your greenness,
and pointy heads, and you know it really hurts,
because, I feel so alone. And I don’t think after the way
I’ve treated you sometimes that you want me no more,
but anyway asparagus, I have to keep on trying because
it’s the way that I know I’ve gotta live. You gotta
understand that being alone ain’t too cool,
and I always feel that loneliness,
when you don’t come to me… and so I get to feelin’…
that I gotta… live alone… love alone… and cry alone…
and sometimes… I feel I gotta eat alone…
Te amo Asparagus………….Peace, Mike.
P.S.
Give credit where credit is due…………..lyrics(slightly altered) are from Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush LP Strange Universe “Dear Music” awesome song, give it a listen.

Saturday, 9 August, 2008 at 12:52It’s sad to admit, but J and I actually LOVE asparagus. But perhaps that is because I was raised in a house with *gasp* avacado green appliances (even the diswasher, natch) that only just retired LAST YEAR.
I wonder if my parents realized they were setting me up for such humiliation later in life?

Saturday, 9 August, 2008 at 13:18I’m with Lori. Asparagus rocks. Even if it does make your pee stank. That is the best part. Asapargus off the grill or boiled than shocked. MMMMMMM.

That was brilliant. Sadly, I too am a fan of some grilled Asparagus (notice how some people are cap’n the “a”, like it’s a proper name now?) with garlic salt and lemon juice. You gave it life, now it can come get you in your sleep, not to kill you afterall it is ribbed for your pleasure.

Saturday, 9 August, 2008 at 17:38I do love asparagus, especially grilled, drizzled with a little olive oil. Than again, I am one of those crazy vegemetarians, so let’s just write it off to that, shall we?

Sunday, 10 August, 2008 at 1:29My mother’s one-time and ill-prepared presentation of canned asparagus with canned cheese sauce – why yes! It was in the 80s! – allows me to empathize completely.
But, there is a wad of asparagus in my fridge right now. To be very honest, my husband bought it, and he was feeling “fancy.”
Me, I’d prefer green beans, but in the interest of maintaining my toddler’s interest in “grown-up food”, I occasionally eat the asparagus. Heavy on the sauce, please.

Sunday, 10 August, 2008 at 11:14I don’t mind a bit of asparagus but I do mind how it makes your urine stink to the high heavens. Imagine nine of us, having eaten the little green stalk, and one toilet.
Yes one.
No, we are not the Brady Bunch.

You see, Auds over at Barking Mad is having this little forum thingy, and I…well….I think you’re funny…..and it would be kind of nice if you could stop by…even for just a few minutes.

Monday, 11 August, 2008 at 2:34A vitriolic ode to a vegetable…if I didn’t already love asparagus so much (and I DO, oh my gosh I LOVE it) then I would try it now. Just to be bad.

Monday, 11 August, 2008 at 15:59I loved it! Dang girl, you can write so well! And I freaking HATE that stuff, but my husband likes it, and although I never knew until he felt the need to tell me, that it made your pee smell really bad. WHY would anyone want that???
