Signs, Signs, everywhere a Signs

Sunday, August 18th, 2002

Tonight I drank rosewater and ate pomegranites and when the dancer twirled her gold scarf there was a breeze across my shish kebob.
We went to see Signs after dinner. I really, really enjoyed (really!) but I can see why some people didn’t. I’m going to spoil it, so if you want to read [...]

Hello? HELLO?

All this time I thought the cat was mad at me.
He’d be sleeping, and I’d go in and call his name and he wouldn’t even look at me. When he was walking down the hall, I’d call him and snap and make kissy noises and he’d just ignore me and go on his way.
You [...]

Blech

The wonders of nationalized health care.
Dogs and cats, living together - it’ll be anarchy!
We all live in a yellow submarine.
Dancing boobies.

An aside

I’d really, really like to have a “preview” function for the MT posting bookmarklet. That is all.

Dough!

We sent the kids to visit their grandparents this weekend. I’m not used to having all this time to myself. Tonight we went to the old house and started to clean out the last room with crap in it, and we were attacked by 5 foot long killer cockroaches.
For those of you who [...]

Creepy stuff to keep you up at night.
Even more stuff to keep you up at night, a.k.a. The Gloved One, redux.

“synonym”, “tongue”, “zither”, “loving”, “wipe”.

Just melts your heart

Thursday, August 15th, 2002

I was awakened this morning by a stealthy baby. She sat up in bed which woke me up, but I feigned sleep in the hopes that she’d lie back down. Instead, she crawled over to me and on top of my head (my back was to her) and planted a big kiss on [...]

This or That Thursday

Thursday, August 15th, 2002

Today’s This or That Thursday:
1. Dr. Seuss characters: the Cat in the Hat or the Grinch?
When I was growing up, it was the Cat, but now that I’m older I’ve found the appeal of the Grinch.
2. "Anne of Green Gables" or "Little Women"?
Hm, same thing here. I read all the Anne books as a [...]
