You should bring a photo of him to show to dad!

Mind you, my wife hardly ever read when we first started going out - now she reads every night, and has become a real book lover (as are all 3 of our girls), so my work on this earth is done .

Coffee in my justincapp mug.
Same with my husband... I can't pry the Sony Reader out of his hands, now.

How true. I have applied for my shotgun license, now that my eldest has just turned 15. For some reason, the police want to know why I want one? Will have to point them at Stitchawl's post...

If today were not an endless highway
If tonight were not a crooked trail
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time
Then lonesome would mean nothing to me at all

Yes and only if my own true love were waiting
And if I could here her heart a softly pounding
And only if she were lying by me
And I lie in my bed once again

I can't see my reflection on the water
I can't speak the sounds that know no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Can't remember the sound of my own name

There's beauty in the silver singing river
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky
But none of these and nothing else can match
The beauty that I remember in my true love's eyes

( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq1NX...eature=related )

A Bob Dylan love song for a Monday morning... sweet sounds of Judy Collins singing it in my brain as I woke up today.

Good morning, all. Sunny, hot, and humid beginning of a new week.

This sound like a delightful summertime drink! I think I'll give it a try tonight, but with a shot of rum in it. My mom let's me drink now and again.

A 15 year old daughter? No shotgun, pal... get something that's full auto with a 30-round Banana clip! Might be a problem where you live though...

(OK... just between you and me... if you need them, I can send you the plans to convert your Hoover vacuum cleaner into an automatic weapon...)

Another mug of Bigalow's English Breakfast tea for me. This stuff is good!

Sparkling green tea flavored with strawberry and kiwi (fruit). Whew. Long weekend here, not in the official sense (it's the usual two days long) but we crammed about three or four days of work into it, plus the usual school. But I've just about got everything back where it goes (or it's new place).

Here they sell 1 liter cartoons of excellent gazpacho. Yesterday evening, while we adults had Ti punches (Antillan for petit punch), la petite received a glass of ice cold gazpacho and was made to believe that was bloody Mary for children. Power of menzogne.
Now it is fresh coffee, then drive to bread and papers, then beach. Yesterday she was equipped with a surf board, and knew how to use it right away.

I did try that, but so far have only managed to reverse the air flow and shoot ping-pong balls. Not having much effect apart from putting the potential suitors on the floor in fits of laughter...

It's hard for me to imagine, as well, but my husband is one of those "intelligent" people who never reads, unless you count news reports and online articles about technology.

Fortunately, he understands my love of books. He compares it to his love of computers. I let him "geek out" on his thing, and he lets me "geek out" on mine.

This morning: Rockstar energy drink. Probably very bad for me, but I'm so tired!
