The thoughts & Musings of Christopher F. Reidy*

PRE-NOTE NOTE: I assume that most images on the web are "fair use."  I will try my best to credit artists, writers, photographers etc. when I use material that is not mine. If I receive notification to remove any material I have used improperly, well, then, I certainly will!

NOTE: Apparently this webpage has some glitches. It tends to randomly switch out visual material.  Why?  Don't ask me.  So, if a pic doesn't match the text...it doesn't!  Rest assured I am trying to amend this problem.  When I get around to it.

*(may contain misuse of apostrophes, miss spellings, overabundance of semi-colons,  wrong word usage, MAJOR AMOUNT OF UNFOOTNOTED ASTERISKS, UNCLOSED PARENTHESES AND UNCLOSED QUOTATION MARKS, etc.
I will make every attempt to correct mistakes if and when they come to my attention.

​ALSO: 
Please find an in-complete (or if you prefer; "ongoing") index of blog posts on the homepage, for your convenience!

AND YET ANOTHER NOTE:
The visual switcheroos on these blogs have reached a point where there's no way I can correct them all, so I'm just going to leave them be.  If they don't match the text, just think of them as whimsical funsies decorating the text.  I will continue to supply pictures; but I cannot guarantee their context: much like my mind.
Thank you for your patience!

A FURTHER NOTE:
I try to keep this website relatively free of anything truly morally reprehensible or obscene.  However, in the pursuit of honesty; I will be quite frank about sexuality; as I feel one should be.  To  wit: this website is not for children.  It is decidedly "adult"; although not necessarily not "childish."  I do not feel it is suitable, in some instances, for anyone below the age of 17.  Or maybe a very mature 16...or 15 even.  
THIS WEBSITE IS RATED: PG-15
I suppose this site is NSFW in some cases; and in that case, I would say it is up to the viewer to determine that.  I will supply extra warning if I think something might be a bit too ribald for The Great American Office.

From 84 On the Floor
            “Jeez,” she said, looking around at the rest of us, “where’dya think we ahh?  The Combat Zone?”  She pushed Carey away and pulled a set of keys from her jacket pocket, which she jangled in the air.   “I got some goodies down on the boat…” As I pondered exactly what she meant by “goodies,” she proceeded to lead us all down to the rickety dock where a half-dozen or so boats of varying sizes were berthed.  One of the larger craft, with the name of “Finicu-la-Dee-Da,” rocked slightly in the water as she clambered over the side and waved the rest of us on deck.  Although it was one of the bigger boats, it really wasn’t quite large enough for eight good-sized teen-age boys and three girls with Giant Hair.  Gina unlocked the door to the cabin and ducked in. Then, the wan glow of a flashlight illuminated the interior as the rest of us proceeded to try and cram into the cabin.  Somehow, we did it, and I found my back pressed up against Casey’s expansive torso.  This was not an unpleasant place to be.  Casey, for his part, did not seem to mind at all either. I began to wish that he would open his top-coat (as his brother had for Gina) and enfold me in it.  I could feel his breath in my ear and it was sending tendrils of current down my body.  It was all I could do to concentrate.  To try and keep from getting hard and melting at the same time.
With almost no light and all the shadow cast by the bulky forms, I couldn’t really see what Gina was doing.  I could hear her, moving around in a second, lower space banging things and occasionally cursing.  “Where the fuck did I put it?”  “What the hell am I gonna do with that?” “Maybe I put it in the dinghy?” “Would one of you come down here and help me find it?” The other boys were joking and laughing as quiet calls of “…that’s what she said…” were uttered with each provocative exclamation from our hostess.  “Oh, for frig’s sake, here it is!” she finally said and then materialized with a plastic baggie.  “That’s What She Said,” corny as it was, never got old and always elicited a laugh.  For the male of the species, anyways.  The girls hated it.  Mary and Donna were not fans.  Donna, especially, would swat anyone who said it with a terse, “grow-up.”  Yeah, girls liked That’s What She Said about as much as they liked farting; and only slightly less than The Three Stooges.
The Zip-Loc turned out to contain free-floating Mary Jane, Zig-Zag paper and a couple of pre-rolled joints.  A marijuana cigarette was extracted from the bag and “fired up” with a flick of the Bic by our hostess, who took a toke and congenially passed it along.  Carey, of course, being to her immediate left and she his inamorata, took it from her taloned fingers.  He hit it hard and did not relinquish the doob until he was accused of bogarting.  With a laugh, it was passed to Andrew and then Ronnie and then Randy.  When it was offered to me, I declined, as did Casey—which was a surprise to no one.
            Gina tsked when Casey demurred.  “Oh, Case, you’re such a goody two-shoes…”

    AUTHOR
    Christopher Reidy is from the Boston area.  He attended Boston University where he studied TV and film which eventually led him to Los Angeles.  There he did the Hollywood thing (which he wasn’t particularly good at) and eventually met his partner Joseph.  He was one of the co-founders of the short lived Off Hollywood Theatre Company which staged several of his original plays.  83 In the Shade is his first novel.  He also dabbles in screenplays, toys with short stories, and flirts with poetry.  Life brought him to bucolic Southwest Virginia where he now resides and is very active in community theatre. It may interest you to know Chris is officially an Irish citizen as well as an American. He also enjoys drawing and painting and looking after a passel of
