• Not my cuppa tea. So I thought.

   

  “Sometimes we are too busy with the concerns of living to give much thought to life.” ~ Thom Lemmons

  I had a different post about a different book recently plotted and planned for this garden of ours — that all changed earlier today when I went shopping with my daughter at a local thrift store for her Homecoming Dress. 

  (For those of you in other places not stateside, Homecoming is an annual high school ritual marked by a football game [the other kind, not soccer] with the local rival school, and a formal dance the following evening — it’s a great excuse for the kids to get very dressed up and for the parental units to take pictures.  It’s usually the last time we see our kids looking this good until Prom, or the “Spring Formal”.)

  While my daughter perused the clothing aisles of the GoodWill Store, I perused the massive used book selection.  For reasons still marginally unknown to me, I snatched a small hardbound novel off a shelf and flipped thru the pages . . . READ THE REST AT GO! SMELL THE FLOWERS main site.

  -------------------------------

  At least once a week (if not more) I'll be over at GSTF with my usual wit, wisdom and personal brand of blahhhh-ging flavour.  I'll keep you updated here, so you can go over THERE.  It's my new home away from home and this time being committed is more than just a threat from the local psych ward.

  I'm going to announce my next picks for the highly coveted "Flower Smeller" award in the next couple of weeks too.  So, stay tuned. 
  And dudes, please leave a comment when you visit me . . .  It's okay to comment elsewhere.  You won't get flogged by the Xanga Gods!  I promise!
