ugh!! I knew it would happen, the odds were against me. At some point I knew I would get a clinker of a boss. My current boss is the epitome of corporateness. She wants to have meetings for everything. This morning we didn't need to talk about how to complete my current assignment (an hour and a half conversation), she needed to give me the hour and a half to complete the assignment!!!
something i've forgotten.
WhenI was on the plane yesterday the movie was Be cool- anyway I "discoovered" aerosmith their ghood when I said this my sister was strucken dumb and sort of looked at me and said "where have you been they are ancient"
but that wasnt my real random thought that was there is this song it was in the film I really liked it yesterday but cant think what the woordss are today andI dont know who sang it!!
.........punctuation..........ahhh.......I miss it so........
When younger siblings do this, Nightshade, it drives me crazy! I love a lot of bands like Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Bob Dylan (who I actually listen to presently), Jimi Hendrix, and others from generations before me; the same seems to go with older movies. Depressingly, when with my younger brother, it seems when I insist on watching a movie filmed before about 1990, he calls it "old and boring." Of course, many older films will never have as much color or special effects than modern movies, but, I think, they tend to compensate with a better plot in most cases (such as one of my favorite movies, Ikiru, a Japanese film made in 1952).Quote:

What do you think is behind ths picture? The title is "Early Snow" It nags us.
A theory we have is that the snow came early and thus the crop failed. There is not enough food and she is playing with the dagger, thinking of killing herself because there is no hope left.
But it doesn't fit with all the details. Her clothes are elegant and costly, she looks like a noble and these don't usually starve. We think that the title is methaphorical too, but cannot grasp, what it is.
Wow, some of the things that happen in my neighborhood!
A few weeks ago, I think in this thread, I mentioned a car collision I witnessed, since my bedroom window overlooks a very busy intersection. Early this morning (about 5:30 am), I heard a very similar screech and crash, looked out my window, and saw a large van that hit a sign on the side of the already busy road, but someone ran from the van. This time I felt lazy, and did not want to call 911 like last time, especially since I already saw a nearby pedestrian dialing something quickly on his cell phone, and speaking loudly to, who I could think, a dispatcher. Well, I went back to sleep to the sound of sirens and a tow-truck, carrying away the van.
Later this morning, I had to take out the garbage, and found myself approached by two police officers and their very large, very intimidating German Shephard search dog. The police asked me a few questions if I had seen anyone, witnessed the crash, etc. I told them no, that I only saw the crash. Apparently, the driver ran from the crash, into my apartment complex, leaving his two companions - why, I have no idea.
My neighborhood gets stranger and stranger everyday, especially considering the relatively low crime rate in Portland (as compared to other U.S. cities). :rolleyes:

But the field is in fallow, no indication of crops having been planted in the last five years or so. Any crop fields (none in evidence) would have been long harvested by this point in time.She doesn't look worried, but determined. The well structured cottage has a fire going, evidenced by the smoke issuing from the chimney ........(its daylight....cooking fire??......the hearth that supplies heat after the sun goes down already banked for the day???)
Also, she has left the house in only her undergarments/light open necked blouse/bedroom dress and a heavy robe or throw. She rushed outside in a hurry......
I have returned! And since school is starting, I shant be going anywhere!
Just thought I'd let you know. :nod:
Missed you sweetie pie!!!Quote:
