| Witch Baby shows up in the short story "Dragons in Manhattan" (from Girl Goddess #9) A picture that this purple-eyed girl had taken of us once, at our Indian restaurant, a few years ago and sent us in the mail. The Budd Family from the short story "Dragons in Manhattan" (from Girl Goddess #9 show up in Missing Angel Juan Across the courtyard are two tall beautiful lankas and a little girl. The little girl has red pigtails and freckles, wide-apart amber-colored eyes and gaps between her teeth. She looks just like one of the lanks. She keeps getting up from her chair and running around the tree squealing at the fireflies. The lankas take turns chasing after her, catching her, hugging her and sitting her down again, trying to get her to eat her rice. There is something about the three of them eating their dinner under the firefly tree that burns inside of me more than the food burning my mouth. They keep touching each other and laughing, sharing their tandoori chicken. [...] I'm feeling sort of high from the hot food. "Can I take your picture?" Usually I don't ask - just do it - but it seems like with them I should. [...] Through my camera lens I see their love even more. It's almost like a color. It's like a firefly halo. I also see that one of the lanks is beautiful in the strong way that only real androgynous ones are. She has really broad shoulders and long muscles and glamster legs. She laughs with a deep voice and if you look close you can see an Adam's apple. I think one was probably once a man. That little girl's mom was probably once her dad. But it does not matter because she is about the happiest kid I've ever seen. I'll send you one if you want," I say. I don't want to take any more pictures of them. I feel like maybe I saw a little too much. The Goat Guys open for the band The Devil Dogs from the short story "The Canyon" (from Girl Goddess #9) in the book Cherokee Bat and the Goat Guys "It's at The Vamp. We'd be opening for The Devil Dogs." Cherokee Bat and the Goat Guys They were sitting behind the d.j. booth wearing tight black and taking Quaaludes with their Diet Cokes when the Devil Dogs swaggered in--vicious canines tattooed on their biceps and hair gelled and sprayed into horn-shaped spikes.
