Friendship, Death, Greenbriar, Tablet, Cord

More Former Friend analysis in progress. To Fiorella, friendship means talking across a table, sharing each other's ups and downs. To FF, it meant running around together, sort of like dating. Not Fio's cup of tea.

Fio wakes every morning knowing that someone died recently, but it takes her a few minutes to figure out who it was--her mother, father, or husband. She's always about to ask Husband when she remembers he was the latest. Fiorella is alone.

Fio was feeling down so she grabbed her pruners and invited Sonia Dog to join her out in the wilderness with her. Sonia romped around and enjoyed herself while Fiorella cut down greenbriar sprouts. Then, of course, the idea for song came into Fio's mind, something about greenbriars being so pretty as they climb the tree, then choking it to death. Yep, a Country-Western winner in the making. Anybody out there play the guitar?

Speaking of tragedies, where, o where has Fiorella's yellow tablet gone/The one that she's depending on/To remind her what she wants to do all day/Where to go and what to say.
*
Fio's ending on a high note: after a panicky search to no avail, she stumbled upon the cord that powers her new Mac. Maybe something like that will happen in regard to her missing tablet. Hoping.
