Carousel

June 29, 2008

This day, June 29, is an anniversary of sorts, but not one that I celebrate. I’ve told the story of what happened on this day almost 30 years ago. Every year after, Sue made a point of mentioning or celebrating the date, or I’m sure I would never have remembered it on my own. I […]

Fun

June 28, 2008

You can’t tell me this wouldn’t be fun. And I’m no fan of heights. (Is she wearing flip-flops?)

The prevailing winds

June 27, 2008

This time of year, our sky here in Arizona can look like this: It’s monsoon season, and that’s a dust storm (also called a haboob–say it out loud, you know you want to). Until you see one, it’s impossible to imagine what a wall of dust hundreds of feet high looks like. Spectacular, and dangerous. […]

And you're on

June 23, 2008

For almost two hours I sat in a big cushy chair at Starbucks with a book, The Outlander, open on my lap. From my spot, I could watch everyone who came in or walked out. I listened to the impossibly long orders for coffee, or something like coffee. I did fly through quite a few […]

How would yours look?

June 20, 2008

What’s interesting about it is that even though some of my answers didn’t pull up a photo that correlated exactly, the mosaic still reflected an essence of […]

Because I need a trip Out of Arizona

June 18, 2008

Two nights ago, at much too late an hour, I caught the first half of Out of Africa before falling asleep. And a few days before that, I turned it on somewhere in the middle. So, in my own backwards way, I managed to watch the whole movie in the last week, along with bits […]

Revived

June 16, 2008

The weekend was great. I have exactly zero complaints about any of it, including mopping the floor. It was great to see my friend. After I spend time with her, which isn’t even close to often enough, I always feel more sure of myself and like there are more possibilities than before. She has that […]

Something to hold my place in line…

June 14, 2008

I won’t be around much today (Saturday) and tomorrow because my dear friend L will be in town. I’ll tell you about her sometime. But if I don’t go and mop my kitchen floor right now, I’ll be too embarrassed to let her in the door. So for now, I’ll leave you with this: Moving […]

Yesterday , I promised you a look at the list of players I would choose for my fantasy poker table. If you click on the image below, you’ll get a better look at it (you’ll want one). In fact, when you get to the image on Photobucket, you can click it once more for the […]
