tired: listen to the neighbor mom speaking English with an African lilt, see her playing backgammon and parcheesi, smell her making tikka masala, realize she was exotic British Colonial

wired: finally put together your Navy brat officer’s kid mom telling you about having a bungalow and servants in the Philippines, her parents taking trips to Hong Kong to buy furniture and have clothes made, owning a crappy horse of her own to realize she was American Colonial
