Hello Serenity - we should keep paper by our bedside, but we'd have to

turn on the light and get up and write it down, and then we'd be wide awake.

i do that!
sometimes i'm laying in bed and i get a great idea for a poem.  seriously, lines just start pouring together in my head but i don't want to get out of bed, so i try to retain them in my memory and by the next morning, i can't even recall one word.  i hate that!

Hi Mary - I always hope to some strumming, but there was no time.
One day I'll set them all to music!

Antonio-yo-yo - Ha, ha. Jingly, jangly thoughts, yes? Sometimes it's
like that.  I thought I heard you singing and strumming to this one.

Hair dye and coffee?
That's a new one on me.  I usually have coffee and a cigarette.  I suppose I should give it a try.  What do you think, carrot top or platinum blonde?

Hi Ennio - Who, me? Or should that be Me, Who?
This wasn't meant to be about time, but I suppose there is a bit of travel into the future, isn't there?

Thanks Najwa! I'm glad the maroon is popular!! It's called brown on the
computer but it does look maroon!
