On my fifth birthday, my mama ran off
with an umpire and never came back.
After I dropped out of school and was
waiting tables, a lady went crazy.
When I tried to calm her, she jumped
at me and cut me from wrist to elbow.
- What's that got to do with fives?
- Took 55 stitches to close her up.
I don't like fives.
That's it. Let's hit it! Let's go!
Hon?
Will you take a picture
with my new camera?
Wait.
All right, let's go, let's go.
Come on, come on.
- Sweetie, call me, okay?
- All right.
Bye.
