Today I missed you.

how much more can i get done before noon today? (11:53 am)
Sometimes moms just help; they just do.

there are few things more exhilarating than racing a train and winning, even though you win because it is coming to a halt at the station.

It is hard to say which is worse; being hurt by someone you love, or knowing you are responsible for the pain of the one who loves you.

most things get better with more simmering, but maybe 12 hours is a bit overkill, plus the mega-carcinogen sauce doesn't look appetizing stuck to the pan but the good "nose" is.... very punny
 From the airplane window I saw the glow of an orange moon beginning its ascent into the new night sky.
i got the pink-pants hot-girl cute-baby milf discount today - and by discount i mean free.

About 95% of the time I am animately opposed to taking naps- I just feel like they are a waste of wonderful time and daylight- but today I took a nap for a few hours and I think it was a very good idea.

if i could meet any musician (living or dead), i would choose gershwin, and ask him how it felt to ride the fine line between classical music and outright jazz.
some people sing and yell along with music when they are driving but i listen to talk radio and sometimes pick on specific words to imitate and end up yelling them, especially ones with good accents - so on my late drive back I was yelling in a british accent "CLEA-AAH"

Living in an apartment has its advantages (you don't have to mow the lawn) and its disadvantages (the fire alarm goes off at 4:45am and does not cease until past 6am).

What do you think happens to you (body, soul, spirit, conscious, etc) when you die?

1 comment: your consciousness is the first to go, your body stops working, then slowly decomposes, your soul and spirit move on to a new world possibly to affect another body/consciousness
if youll believe that this is better than chickpea hummus, you'll try my self-named "bip dip" (short for black-"Ied"-pea dip) which is simply about a cup of over-cooked black-eyed-peas blended to death with a bit of the water used to boil them to taste with salt (1/2t?), lemon juice (2T?) and oliveoil (2T?) and then you'll make it every day, and possibly write run-on sentences about it.

There was once a psychology professor named Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced Cheek-sent-mah-hye-ee) who developed a concept called "flow," which I experience every time I am engaged in a crafting project.
i love it when i wake up with nothing to do but do tons of stuff anyways.

midnight hiking is so awesome, especially with pregnant women - a new tradition i am loving.

Summer berries are so delicious; I am going to miss them in the fall.

I have been the proud owner of the same African Violet since October 2006 and for the first time in almost 4 years, it is producing flowers!
whenever people ask why i dont know some obvious piece of pop culture, i tell them its because i was born in 1927 - and i dont really feel like im lying.
