Music today: Lots of glamrock songs I don't know. I am old.
Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.
Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.
Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

That is three boxes of books. Now I have ten, yes ten boxes of books that have no bookshelves. It is a problem. Something must be done. Soon.
Now it is late. 5:05 am. I am tired. I am going to hit the sack with a couple of these books.
Dancing in a glamrock bar with a goth room upstairs for DB's birthday. She turned the big quarter century. Funny chicky who looks like Pat Benatar with dimples. I was tired but I'm glad I went... she said I was the only one she invited who showed up. There were other friends of hers there, but you can tell they are bar regulars who were happy to see her. I think she had a good night, but I am very glad I went. It is good to be supportive of friends.
Tomorrow I have to figure out what to bring to my friend's baby shower on Sunday. Can you imagine they don't know if it is a boy or a girl and she's 8 months along?! That's kind of cool if you ask me. People will buy lots of yellow. Probably she'd like a drawing from me. No time.
That's a problem for tomorrow.
zzzzz
hugs to me
wenchie
BTW that huge pile of books cost me $64.50 Cdn. Wow. I bet TWO of those books were worth that new.
ps... I didn't meet ANYONE with a lovely accent. (and it isn't the accent that is the problem, it is the getting me to reconsider where I live and my life, cuz usually cute accents come from far off places. Thank god I stayed home til midnight! LOL!
4 People have left cute, callous or caring comments on the wench's wordiness!!
Leave yours too!!
Go to "notes" instead of comments
