Marilyn's Diary

My Aunt Lily had a very talented tongue. She should have because she was a vampire. She tried to teach me some tricks. She could take a cherry stem out of a drink and tie it into a knot using just her tongue. She was always doing party tricks. She said she inherited her talents from Grand Pa.

It was strange that with all her talent she couldn't hold on to Uncle Herman. But I guess his new wife Carol Herman had something that attracted him. I mean she was very loquacious. She was erudite.

And she liked to give a Rusty Trombone while Uncle Herman was smoking a joint.

It was the 1960's after all.
