Everybody Tells Me Everything
I find it very difficult to enthuse
Over the current news.
Just when you think that at least the outlook is so black that it can grow no blacker, it worsens,
And that is why I do not like the news, because there has never been an era when so many things were going so right for so many of the wrong persons.

Ogden Nash

i ♥ ogden nash...expect more of him....:)

The Germ
A mighty creature is the germ,
Though smaller than the pachyderm.
His customary dwelling place
Is deep within the human race.
His childish pride he often pleases
By giving people strange diseases.
Do you, my poppet, feel infirm?
You probably contain a germ.

the last days of winter break...

why do i have an unquenchable desire to get in my car and drive...and drive...and drive with my xm radio blasting!
i only have saturday and sunday, then it's back to work! why hasn't this desire hit me sooner? i think it's a sense of urgency that i'm running out of time...i think that this can be related to life in general..we do nothing, until we have no time left. we all know our days are numbered. why do most of us just sit and wait! THAT has gotta stop!!! see ya later! ROAD TRIP! (albeit a short one!)




where am i going?

a smile might even look like this......

dang...that's scary...oh...whatever! take it or leave it
;0)
