6:46 p.m. | 2003-01-08 You Too Can Collect Homies. I talked to Dearest Sister today. Actually, I talked to 3 of my sisters all in the same day about different things. Not a typical thing but that�s neither here nor there. So anyway, we were talking and stuff. Here�s that. (DS:) Well, we had to go here because Eldest Son collects homies and� (CI:) (My mind starts to wander. What? He collects �homies�? Last time I checked, �homies� was short for �homeboys� which is another name for your buddies that hang out in the �hood. How do ya collect homies? Do you just go out on the streets and call a homeboy over and ask if you can collect him? If so, then what do you do with him? Take him home and prop him on the couch? Okay, I�m so not getting this but I�ll let her keep talking and see if it starts to make any sense. Nope, still not getting it.) (DS:) �they didn�t have any here so then we went there and they didn�t have any either. So, I talked to the management and they�re going to start carrying them� (CI:) (What the fuck is she talking about?!) Uh, what are homies? I mean, I know what homies are but what are you talking about? (DS:) Oh, they�re little dolls. (ES:) (Shouting out) They are NOT dolls!!!! (CI:) He collects dolls? (DS:) No, they�re like little plastic army men except they�re smaller and they�re not army men. They�re homies. Little homies. (CI:) Okay. (DS:) And, now they have �mijos� too so Youngest Son is collecting those. (CI:) I see. So, if you�re looking for something new to collect, you can collect homies and mijos too. your thoughts? seed flower
