Dear Billi,
Lily Munster, Morticia Addams, and all the Catwomen dominated my teen life. I find they have a lot to do with my middle-age life too. (I swear, I try not to be a pig. I tell myself every morning, don’t be a pig, don’t be a pig, don’t be a pig. Then, bang, I am a pig.)
Dark, dangerous, scary. Plus, those eyes. It’s all very scary and alluring. But that’s what Americans want, don’t they?
I was a kid, for God’s sake. I was a Catholic kid in the House of Opression, Repression, and Obsession.
I think now you understand where I’ve always had a thing for older women. These women were in kids shows, jesusmaryandjospeh. Get past it? Date women my age?
Fat fuckin’ chance.
All love,
Patrick
