Eat brain for matter

Today I was wined and dined ,without the wine. I was picked up at my home a little nervous to get into my ride. An interesting array of guests to gather for lunch. My mother "the loudmouth'(but ever so caring, her boyfriend "the moody p*%s"(but oh so kind), His daughter Jade"the forever flirt"(but 14-a never forever) and last but certainly the best of the batch My mothers boyfriends, get this=ex wife"the sticky tricky bitch"(but just insecure a friendly smoke partner)and then there's me,today my role is "trouble maker any taker"

As we drove along the winding roads through the vineyards, with exquisite mountainous views. I felt queasy with motion sickness,with all the chatter of personalities trying so eagerly to be heard at once,Jade on my lap fondling my phone. A combination of trying to make sure she did not go through the wrong messages , Johns driving and my mother and the ex jabbering away,I was quite sure I would get sick. But then we were there. And there it was majestic.

This wine farm/restaurant set so perfectly in the mountains,vineyards rolling at our feet, this is one of those place you pay a freaking fortune for a meal that's the size of a table spoon serving,that when I left I was so hungry I got take out. But it was commendable none the less.

"just so you know your meal is served with lamb brains" I imagine my face squished from both sides into my mouth as I held my throat. My instinct was to decline. That was until the ex wife started chirping how people are so fickle and never want to try new things blah blah blah. Fucking with the wrong bitch. I looked up at the waiter "yes thanks I will have the lamb brains on the side please" My stomach already turning. But you know what , why not> right?

As the food arrived I grabbed the plate with the lambs first as I just couldn't stand this woman chirping me any longer. A fat like substance came oozing out as I cut the first half of the brain in half. A part of me could not believe I was going to do this. I almost wanted to block my nose as I did when I was a child when I was forced to eat liver. Foul I say. Fork missed teeth,Brain to tongue, I didn't swallow, I chewed,I swallowed. "mmmm, not bad a bit like bread and marrow" as I said that it was a little bit nothing like bread or marrow, it was nothing like anything Ive eaten before, a very peculiar texture.

So I swallowed and looked at ex wife with a very mischievous smile, pushed my plate towards her,"do try some brain" The bitch declined. All that stuff about people never trying new things, well I do say baroness "people in glass houses"

Well, I guess Ive eaten lamb brain then. Mmmm.

A few hours later I'm a getting a burger down the road, I guess a just missed the spot I was looking for it to full.

My "groupies" escorted me home. Only Jade and I spoke, she cant decide if I'm special to her, if we friends or something like half sister or just nothings, whatever we are it entails her being the paparazzi as she took about 100 pictures of me in a 15minute drive. I feel for her- she stands alone.
I saw my mom running off to keep the peace, the peace in her boyfriends mind. Dint ask me how that works but God does she try. The ex and I were no longer smoke buddies so our good bye was brief.

Lunch,people,brains,dessert,conversation,a good laugh,home,love,failed Chinese lantern launch

day was fruitful(fruitfully really is that all I can up with) Let me try again:
today was exactly what I needed to ground me for the week, it gave me relief and hippity happity (better)
today was one of beauteous entity giving me feelings of reward in all (best)
