Not really but I kind of liked the quote...
"Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night."
~Edgar Allan Poe
And he is a poet.
I guess that relates.
I'm not going to wish ANYONE a happy Earth Day.

Poet. Remember.
Agrivating as it maybe, I'm supposed to write every now and again because after all I am a writer. This is one of the things that I do. There are trees outside.
When I'm not slacking.

For me, they mark time.
Winter branches
Spring flowers
Summer fruit.
Autumn leaves.
Then they fall
And start again
With Winter.

Therapy...
All these dreams and my friend's dream analysis has got me thinking.
Dreaming of having sex with men with rattlesnake penises is pretty creative.
Heck, I'm a writer.
I've got a great imagination.
Just think of all the stuff I could make up.
LOL, If I had a therapist? They would not be bored.
Come to think of it neither would I.
Hmmm.
Not to be political but wonder if Obamacare would pay for it?

I had another dream...
No not about rattle snakes.
This time I dreamed I had sex.
I think I'm gonna tell my friend that I had sex with men who had rattlesnake penises.
Can't wait to hear what they have to say about it.

Dream lover...
A while back I dreamed about rattle snakes.
As soon as I woke up, I told someone about it.
Later they told me that it mean I had "...unresolved issues...".
I told them that it was spring and I had "...rattle snakes in heat..." issues.
(Where we live the rattlesnakes are emerging from their dens. They're sleepy, hungry, horney, and basically pizzed. You see rattlesnakes crossing the road all the time. I have yard work to do. Nothing unresolved about it.)
My friend insisted that I was wrong and that my subconscious was trying to tell me something.
I thought about it and started to tell them, "Why yes, you are correct. Everynight as I go to sleep watching Craig Ferguson and his rattlesnake mug my subconscious is in an epic battle of desire. Now shut up and lets go get coffee."
Then I thought about it some more and invited them to run barefoot through my back yard.
:D

I heart Izzy...
Izzy is a farty dog.
Izzy is a farty dog.
LOL I can't help it. It's funny.
She doesn't fart like a fog horn.
She poofs like the tiny little lady dog.
Then she looks up at me like she's saying,
"They that smelt it dealt it."
LOL

Dear Craig,
My dog Izzy is farty.
I wrote to Craig Ferguson for help and advice about this because his own dog is farty. Well and it would cost me 90 bucks to have the vet tell me, "Yes, your dog is farty."
Wonder if he'll write back?
Craig not his farty dog.

As you read in the last post, I'm in a real pickle.
On the one hand I want a Twitter account and on the other hand I don't want to tell folks my birthday.
Then it came to me.
If Conan O'Brien could get his squirrel a Twitter account, I could get one for my dog Izzy.
Hurray.
Problem solved and no longer bored.

I'm bored ...
... and conflicted.
You see I want to get a Twitter account but I don't want to tell my real birthday.
What do I do?
Do I make stuff up?
OR
Do I tell the truth and risk being hacked.
This is a really difficult decision.
On the one hand I don't want to lie to people
but on the other hand I really want a Twitter account.
Does it count as a lie if your first tweet is.
"Dear Twitter, That's not my real birthday. I made it up. Love, Conflicted"
I'm not trying to deceive anyone and I would be telling them the truth.
Besides they just want to know if I'm 12 or not.
Which I'm not.
Lemmie think.
Hmm
Good news. I'm not bored.

Used to be when I got bored that I'd write.
Not today.
Today I'm listening to Peter and the Wolf.

It's a wonderful world...
Funny but lately my personal life has been really, really good.
For a loooongg time my life was boring.
Really boring.
My love live didn't exist.
All I did was study, work, and basically try not to get eatten by the "TRexes" in my life. No one wanted to know who I was.
It was really sad.
Then one day a miracle happened. I got a blog and a whole lot of people paid attention. My love life improved drastically. Lots of people wanted to know me.
Unfortunately.
So if someone wants to know if it's better to be rich or be famous?
Go for the rich.
The famous is just too much work.

"I guess it is in the water..."
When you walk into the Montgomery Museum of Art, not too far up the road from Pink Lily, you will see magic set free. There is Mr. Lucas. Well not actually Mr. Lucas but his self and his stories made from the bits and pieces of everyday life. The car part. The end of a hoe. Something from a tractor. Long strips of steel bent and shaped into the pieces of a story.
This book is his story.
A beautiful and informative book. Comprehensive look at the work of Charlie Lucas, sculptor. Pink Lily, Alabama.
Tin Man

Holy cow NOW I get it
Last night's guests were both authors.
From The Day I Shot Cupid. Hello my name is Jennifer Love Hewitt And I'm a Love aholic"
page 18.
"...So be strong, have personal power - good God, roar if you have to! But a couple of nights a week try letting it be all about your undergarment and on top put a dress, perfume, some sparkle powder, and a little willingness to let him lead."
To Mr. Neville's book, "Ghosts of Belfast"
pg 1
"Maybe if he had one more drink they'd leave him alone. Gerry Fegan told himself that lie before every swallow...."
I'm thinking that the only thing missing was the skit where the Ghost Whisper character is at the bar with the fictional Mr. Fegan and she sees those 12 Ghosts of Belfast as well. "I see dead people too so stop yer drinkin' Mr. Fegan." she would say. She could have interceeded for Mr Fegan, done alittle Freudian psycho analysis, and sent those 12 ghosts packing without all that extra drama. Afterwards the real Ms. Hewitt and Mr. Neville could have gone out to a pub both in sparkly powder and really good shoes. As a matter of fact, if Mr. Neville didn't already have a girl friend? I'd think this would make a most interesting couple.
Sigh, I really love to watch this show. It's getting better and better in the irony department. Or maybe in the parody department. Which ever it is it's not boring.

Review for Annie's book
You know that feeling of dread that comes when a new author utters the words, "Would you read this?" There's a knot that you feel forming in your stomach when you hear the words "historical novel". You're pretty sure that it's either going to be "dry as dirt" or so "flowery" it should be in romance novels with fake Fabios on the cover.
That's not this book.
This book is actually interesting. There are no tedious moments to skim though nor are there "high drama" or "soap box" moments to endure. This book is a good fictional story based on real world events.
Enjoyed the book. Would recommend it to others.
I love Jennifer.
Well he doesn't actually think he's in love with her. He just collects her photos and puts them on his computer. To him she's just the brightest light in the sky.
I'm ranting this morning. I turned on Youtube so that I could watch tv's Craig Ferguson's interview with Stewart Neville and what happens. They have the interview with the Jennifer Love Whozits but not with the author of the Ghosts of Belfast, Stewart Neville.
There aren't words.
Well there are.
Here's Jennifer (squee) Love Whozits in her own words:
From her book " The Day I Shot Cupid. Hello My Name is Jennifer Love Hewitt and I Am a Love aholic"
page 18.
"...So be strong, have personal power - good God, roar if you have to! But a couple of nights a week try letting it be all about your undergarment and on top put a dress, perfume, some sparkle powder, and a little willingness to let him lead."
And here are the words from writer Stewart Neville:
Unfortunately, Stewart Neville's interview isn't here. He can't rock a pair of pink stilettos. Otherwise, I'm sure that his interview would up on Youtube already right here next to the extra ordinary writer, Jen.
Sporting sparkle powder and pink stilettos.
In the mean time here's a link to his blog.
