Freedom and Justice for All...

PERCEPTION SHIFT I heard a poet talk of homelands, of immigrant findings, of America what it is what it means how it differs from what he imagined.

PREDATORY LOVE

There’s a certain recipe for love that’s put out by the movie makers, where boy sees girl, boy wants girl, but girl is happily on her own and doesn’t flip her hair or swish her skirt and gives him the cool shoulder.

INNER CHILD

It might have been a guy named John Grey who was all over PBS and other networks a few years back, explaining his theory about the inner child. In fact he said we adults have three distinct psychological parts: 1) the inner child, 2) the adult, and 3) the parent. 1) is intuitive-impulsive, 2) thinks... Sign in to see full entry.

TUESDAY AT THE CENTER

I got up early – not really my idea but I was awake so what the heck. Got to The Center 20 minutes early, plenty of time to make coffee for JoAnn and the other Kitchen Angels before I took my place behind the front desk. Day’s schedule included an AARP Safe Driving class, due to start at noon, one... Sign in to see full entry.

NOT QUITE A LAWYER JOKE…

Son told me yesterday he’d heard a rumor that DJT sent a photo of his privates to Stormy Daniels and now her lawyer has to ask the court for a change of venue to small claims court. Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT'S THE JOKE?

My taste in TV programming has changed – perhaps narrowed. No longer enjoy weird mysteries, things like the X-Files which are a filmed just a bit out of focus at times, with lots of shadows and faces obscured, voices a bit blurred at times. Nope. I want good lighting, clear speech and a bit less of... Sign in to see full entry.

If you read this blog yesterday then you know I was complaining about having to come up with interesting topics for our writes on Thursdays. Truth is, the winter blahs have hung on far too long, and I’ve been stalling instead of doing my taxes, so I was feeling pressure and guilt as tax day looms... Sign in to see full entry.

WRITE YOUR OWN STORY

MEMO TO THE GROUP: I’M TIRED Tired of coming up with new topics for your group write on Thursdays. Tired of ‘splaining the “how-to” where you nod and seem to get it, but when you read aloud afterward you obviously didn’t. What part of “details matter” don’t you understand? The who, where, when etc.?... Sign in to see full entry.
