amboy crater

Cognitive dissonance. Amboy Crater has it. Heck, she's full of it. Up to the gills and down to the fat around her ankles.
Amboy rides in the back of Will Crater's Nissan, even when it's cold, with her Pitbull Terrier, Arlys.
She listens to Maya Arulpragasam, M.I.A., and pines for the forests of northern Sri Lanka. She wants to be a Tamil Tiger. Live off curried shrimp and rice with coconut juice. An occasional mango. Maybe some pine nuts. She doesn't know about the recent genocide. That's what Maya called it.
Amboy wants to get a tiger tattoo. Will won't let her. He got one in Sturgis in 1985 and nearly died from the resulting staph infection. He contracted Hep C at the same time and is slowly dying of cirrhosis. Liver failure. It's a sad, unfortunate situation. Amboy's afraid she'll catch the Hep C. That's why she rides in the back. With Arlys. No tattoo.
