(I'm good now, though. )
(what she said...) er, my moods have me under control sometimes

just watched X-Men First Class though I still prefer the movie Wolverine they showed last year, 1st Class was better than Season of the Witch

ah, apple juice to wash the donuts, the pizza, the spaghetti, the corn milk and the chocolate down

I enjoyed the Wolverine movie too, in fact he's my favourite. I though he was incredibly "earthy" in the first X-men movie, and the only genuinely threatening character.

I got a good incentive to re-read Jerome K. Jerome, Three Men in a Boat.
It was/is? a very popular book in the USSR. I read it 20 years ago but meant to re-read it, in English this time, for quite a while.
I cannot resist it this time

Quote:
It is very strange, this domination of our intellect by our digestive organs.
We cannot work, we cannot think, unless our stomach wills so.
It dictates to us our emotions, our passions.
After eggs and bacon it says, “Work!” After beefsteak and porter, it says, “Sleep!”
After a cup of tea, it says to the brain,
“Now rise, and show your strength.
Be eloquent, and deep, and tender;
see, with a clear eye, into Nature, and into life:
spread your white wings of quivering thought, and soar,
a god-like spirit, over the whirling world beneath you,
up through long lanes of flaming stars to the gates of eternity!”

Funny, isn't it? I have a glass of whisky when posting the ritual of the ‘art’ of tea

New tea!!!! I ordered my favourite Rooibos flavoured teas from NBTea last week, and they arrived at my parents house last week. I'm currently enjoying a cup of Rooibos Mirabelle Cream.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
Good good good good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
Good good good good vibrations
She's giving me excitations

Monday morning greetings, all! I hope your weekend was as pleasant as could be! East India Company's "Assam" tea in my mug this morning, to go along with a bowl of rice, miso soup, and tsukemono. I think this is going to be a very nice week!

Yes, I did pass the motorcycle license test a few months ago, and yes, I was riding my bike even while I was trying to pass the test. I consider 'license laws' to be optional.
If my breaking a law doesn't harm anyone, I use my own discretion about it's value. If its only value is to raise revenue for a government, I give it little care.

Now I'm challenging the automobile license. Until I bought the car for my wife, I had no need of such paper, but now there are times when it would be good for me to drive, and I do 'prefer' to do so legally if I can.

I know what it's like to live with a hormonal female going through menopause... "If a man does anything in a forest and there are no women around to hear/see him, is he still wrong?"

Time for a second mug of Assam. Black teas rock!

bergamot is what prevents me from finishing the tea box. perhaps I should send it over to L&G...
