Thanks Jen.

Have fun Victoria. I'm sure you've earned a needed break.

For sure, I work like crazy and get paid peanuts, LOL! No, that's not true, but I do need my breaks. I spent last summer teaching Italian. It's good money but I don't have time for myself. Sometimes, I feel that I don't want to do anything, just nothing, LOL! Funny thing, I'm already getting a new contract for another Italian summer, LOL! Well, what can I say, the money is good. See, I should just find a rich boyfriend.

Are you gonna be around next week? All my friends here are going some place.

I wasn't really being nosey. I was just curious! :)
Was hoping you would not have to go thru the hassle of getting another paper to press for a few days.

I have every confidence in you. You will do great!

I don't mind your questions, Amy! I don't consider them nosey. I probably give you way more detail than you care to know. (That's what DH says all the time...)

"I probably give you way more detail than you care to know."

Not really; I like people and I feel like everyone here is a friend. I felt bad the other evening when you were exhausted. Hope you don't have another one of those days for a very long time.

Wedowee is the heart of Randolph County. I have a customer in Roanoke which is just south and eat of Wedowee.

I live in Pinson which is NE of Birmingham. I plan to move south in a few years but I like it here.

In what part of GA do you live?

I like the pace. I am high energy and not being busy is depressing almost. I need to write but I can't focus right now. So many different issues right now clutter my head with noise. I need to sit down and make a list of subjects and take them on one at a time.

If you want to help, given me a title and 4 bullet points and I'll write a custom poem for you. It can be personal, political, silly, or any other mode that you chose. I do this frequently for the mental excercise.

Let me know.

Good bumper sticker but the meaning would be too deep for the sheeple.

Hi, Amy,

CG invited me. This is my first post to Amy's (mes amies). After posting it at WFTD, which was:

Bibulous

Bibulous has two meanings. Ted shows them both of course.
One means to have too much to drink, to drink without remorse.
The other is more subtle, it means to catch the flow,
Like those dandy man-sized diapers that he demonstrates below.


He now can go most anywhere, and stand up like a man,
In any p!ssing contest, no one holds forth like he can.
It gives a nice warm feeling, it almost makes him smile,
He knows he doesn’t have to leave the floor, except once in awhile.

He needs to get replenished, above and down below,
But he’ll be back, and standing tall, and one more thing we know,
His knowledge about liquids is surpassed by no one living,
And in the give and take of life, he’s taking and he’s giving.

A moose once bit my sister's paper dress
And found it much too tasty, you would guess
It gulped her outfit down, from top to hem
While all the boys were cheering -- shame on them!

Okay, I should have know better than to give you a lead in for a poem. This is how it goes according to the credits in Monty Python and The Holy Grail...

A Møøse once bit my sister ...

No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink".

We apologise for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible have been sacked.

Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti...

We apologise again for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked.

...and it goes on, this is just part of it. I won't learn though, I'll post that line again, and you'll write another poem. Hmmmm, that almost rhymes...

Der vos a Norsk dentist name Hans
Hooz touch var es saft es ein Schwan's
Unt madels got giggles
Venn hiz finger viggles
From der cuspids clear down to der Schvantz.
