My family and I went to a well advertised cavern (I hate caves) and was it a real rip-off!! It reminded us of our crazy neighbor's old garage.

That my grandpa is really doing fine after yesterday's operation!!
![]() It was only a relatively small affair this time, but only 4 weeks ago he had an emergency operation where things balanced on a knife's edge (I learned that all only afterwards, my granny kept it secret till I came back from the conference - she knew I'd had taken the next plane north asap) and although I see him eternally young, he's 78 after all... He was in jolly good mood when I just phoned him: He: "Oh, and these nurses, how young and beautiful they are! And what things they're doing with me... *in pretended ashamed tone* you know, they shaved me in places where I never shaved myself." Me: "Well, heard that's fashionable for men this season." He: *laughing hard* Me: *getting the giggles* He: *still laughing* "Hey, dontcha piss your pants, girl!" That's me grandpa, alive & kickin ![]() |

Will do. And I will come back with many glorious PAX stories, I'm sure.

Yesterday I took myself to a movie.
There were two other people in the theatre. No one else. I finally figured out the pattern of the little flashing star lights on the ceiling. Each is wired to turn on and off at a different time interval, so collectively there is no pattern at all, but singularly each is regular. The movie was beautiful. It was called Snow Cake. Look it up if you want. |

There's a new taco stand a mile from my house. You could use half an ounce of their salsa to singe all the hair off a freshly killed wild boar and still have enough to bleach the driveway. I'm not sure but I think there might be shards of glass in it. I can't feel my lips.
I'm very happy to have found a place that knows how to make the good stuff. |

This poem I found while actually wanting to refresh my (bit 'o) Perl knownledge:
#!/usr/bin/perl APPEAL: listen (please, please); open yourself, wide; join (you, me), connect (us,together), tell me. do something if distressed; @dawn, dance; @evening, sing; read (books,$poems,stories) until peaceful; study if able; write me if-you-please; sort your feelings, reset goals, seek (friends, family, anyone); do*not*die (like this) if sin abounds; keys (hidden), open (locks, doors), tell secrets; do not, I-beg-you, close them, yet. accept (yourself, changes), bind (grief, despair); require truth, goodness if-you-will, each moment; select (always), length(of-days) # listen (a perl poem) # Sharon Hopkins # rev. June 19, 1995 It's so beautiful ![]() |
