Buffalo

I printed your blog and put it on my bulletin board.  It is next to a picture of a dodo bird and a buffalo (when Arlene & I went out, we came upon a yard with a stuffed buffalo and I talked about it for days so she finally had to put a picture up).

Recession

If, when I was your age, someone had told me I'd one day be shopping at a thrift store, 
I would have laughed in their face and slapped them with my glove.  

What a long, strange trip.

Friday


My mother said this to me one Friday.  She spent the whole Thursday before thinking it was actually Friday, when of course it was Thursday.  Understand?  She was one step ahead, etc.  But if you read the quote without that bit of context, I think it's remarkably insightful and somewhat... chilling?  We see Friday as the savior of the weary work week.  When really, it's just... well, I'll let you do the rest of the thinking for yourself.

Life

Life is what you make of it, and I am making a banana loaf and enjoying a fine bottle of d'oro.

Up-do

Yesterday the cafeteria lady was wearing what must have 

been a very pretty up-do over the week-end. However, it looked 

a little smushed under her hairnet.  I think she still felt pretty.

List

How much does a show cost in NYC?  How about:

-A load of wash?

-A red bull?

-McDonalds (or would you even know)?

-A bottle of wine?

-Dinner out?

-Getting into a club?

 

Which leads me to ask... did you ever do ecstasy?

Marie Antoinette

I must go fold my third load of laundry and prepare for the workday that lies ahead.  I wonder how Marie Antoinette prepared for the same type of day?

Pride

My gay friend hooked up with someone at Pride Fest. I'm very jealous - I mean HAPPY for her.

Twitter


Maybe it's about time I get a Twitter.  But what would I Twitter?  "I'm at Target"?
