Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
The car starts and drives well in cold...but the heater doesn't kick in good until much later.
Nice tagline... by the way.
So you love hair in your nose? Well, I suppose it serves a purpose, yes... but I don't if I love it.
OK... OK... just kidding...
You spelled it right in your tagline. Just kidding. :-)
Heh... I had to go check my translation, just to be sure.
I'm gonna go hit the couch and find a movie to watch. Good night!
We just finished watching The Big Empty
It was one of those quirky, sci-fi sorta, comedies. Sean Bean plays a guy called Cowboy, who helps interstellar travelers on their way. It was pretty funny in parts, but it was slow getting started.
If you remember the old movie Harold and Maude, Bud Cort, the guy who played Harold, plays a guy named Neely in this movie and is the third person seen on screen. We had to go back and check the scene again when we saw his name in the cast. It was him, 35 years older. ;o)
I guess I am thinking of a young man who hit me up for money and a ride when I was leaving the hospital after volunteering the day, telling me he had no money and no one wuld help him to the bus station, and that yes, he had talked with the Pastoral Care director about money, even though I had spent the morning making rounds with him and could I please just give him a ride, when my truck was amongst a hundred other cars in a large parking lot and no one around to see it happen.
That, and he ended practically every phrase with some exclamation to God...not in itself a bad thing, but I was acutely conscious that there was no one else around.
I felt bad turning him down, but all I could think of was "what if he dragged me off somewhere."
Like I said, I'll probably get a good talking to by Christ for that one, but I had been attacked in that area before. I was lucky that day.

Hi!
A stolen item turning up at a pawnshop? Never happens!

As a single, pretty defenseless woman, I think your instincts are right on. Better to inconvenience someone than to get into serious trouble. Don't feel guilty about it.
Just checkin' in on my way to bed...
I got a 92%. Average error was only 9 miles tho. Couple of them flyover states are hard to place on a blank slate.
Evenin' Mornin' whatever the case may be...
Here with themovie in. But I'm really up 'cause I gotta find some paperwork for tomorrow. Gots a headache and would like to get to bed...so I'm freeping...I'm so confused.
Had Jr's "Winter Holiday Concert" tonite. They did it at a theater downtown. Theater rotates letting area schools use the facility. Although this was the last performance for a couple of years. Rennovations start right away.
The concert title was PC. But we were pleased to hear the male chorus sing "Lo How a Rose Ere Blooming." And the ladies did a spiritual. Lot's of "Merry Christmas-ing" as well.
All the groups were pretty good. I did think that the strings should have tuned up before they started playing...
...then they started and I realized it prolly wouldn't have mattered.
They can tune them things? Hmmmm... learn something new every day. ;~)
Been up restless, listening to music and playing games. Gonna go try to get some sleep meself. G'night.
I got 92%! I put S. Carolina further North than it should have been. Don't know what I was thinking cause I know it's right above GA! I did it 392 seconds. That's kind of tricky for the Midwestern states without any sort of visual clues like FL and CA have, and the gimmies like AK and HI!
good morning!
Good morning!
Good morning!
Good morning!
Good morning!
