Deep Thoughts


Happy, Sad
Puzzled, Mad
Bored out of your Gourd
Agitated, Frustrated
Revolving, Evolving
Filled with Joy
Filled with Pain
Preaching, Teaching
Forward Reaching
Magic, Tragic
Receiving, Achieving
Fantastic, Spastic
Hot, Cold
Timid, Bold
Fearful, Cheerful
Shrieking, Freaking
Calm before the Storm
How do you do
Not a Clue
What does this Friday say to You?

Nursery Rhyme Redo: It's Raining, It's Pouring


It's raining, it's pouring
And the cat is snoring
Upon the pillow beside my head
And there he will be until morning



This seems quite appropriate considering the rainy day here.

The Chilly Side


Waves on the Gulf
Result of last night's cold front.
It's a bit cooler today.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Quote of the Week

Nothing revives the past so completely as a smell that was once associated with it. - Vladimir Nabokov



The smell of freshly baked bread transports you to your mom's kitchen.  The salty scent of the sea returns you to a special vacation.  The delicate fragrance of a rose reminds you of your first bouquet.  These are all examples of how scents can bring the past to back to life.  Our sense of smell is a unique link to memories, good or bad, pleasant or painful, happy or sad.
