In search of a comma

I've started a list of things that are on loan to other people, because I am getting tired of waking up one morning and thinking, for example, "Hey, what happened to my copy of Eats, Shoots and Leaves?"

I know I loaned that to one of you, possibly Sean or Dianna, but I cannot remember who. I don't need it back but I like to know where things are, so please let me know if you have my copy and I will jot you down on the list. And if you are extra-quick in telling me you have it, I will put a little happy stamp next to your name.

I have your Thurber, assorted Foster Wallaces, and "Wonder Boys", which I just finished. Also, I stole some of your flatware, and one of the mistress's fine linens.

I do not have your copy of Eats, Shoots & Leaves. I wish I did, but if wishes were books I would need a bigger house.

I have your "Momma's Family" DVDs. And I'm not giving them back.

I have your momma. I mean, I had her. I mean, this joke isn't funny.

I have your copy of Eats, Shoots, and Leaves.
It is I.

This entry almost made me cry,
and then I got to the second part.

speaking of your mom. i was in this slide bubble thing yesterday in a park in te anau and there was all this nasty graffiti on the walls about "yer mom" and someone named shannon and his wee dick. it was amusing. but then less because i had just met this boy named shannon on the overnight boat cruise and he was totally cute and i didn't want to think he had a small wee. and also because children go on those slides. CHILDREN.
