Would you prefer girating kumquats?
"Girating" reminds me of "gyre."Quote:

I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.
Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a kumquat? "
Is JoJo really only 13 years old?? She looks 18!
I think the reason for my insomnia has something to do with buddhist monks in india.
"Catcher in the Rye" I read it as a teen and I didn't really care for it. Would i appreciate it now or did I miss the boat?
And what is the proper way to write a book title and author?
I'm old fashioned but I still like to see the titles underlined, then a simple "by line."
The older I get, (and Chriiiiist I'm gettin' old) the more I think that Pigs are way too smart to be eaten. My neighbor keeps pigs. Chester Whites, I think - a misnomer in this neck of the woods since they're mostly red from the red clay around here. I like to go over and visit them from time to time. They wag their curly little tails when they see me. Their radar dish ears independently search back and forth for a signal. And I swear to god, they smile when I scratch behind their ears or rub their snouts.
Anyhow, I don't think that I can eat bacon anymore.
officially, according to the Modern Language Association, we are to cite the name of the book in italics (or underlined, if hand written) and if it is a short story, or work in a bigger work, such as a poem from an anthology, it should be in quotes. the author is first name last. for example,
"The Sonne Rising"
-Donne, John
but of course, that was the last time i looked; they change their rules at least once a week, so who knows what they want us to do now!
Blech. I don't think computers are my best friend. :(
I have a tummy ache. :(
There's a little bug walking along the edge of my computer monitor. I wonder if it feels a long way to it and where it thinks it's going. I'm very bored. Maybe its bored too. Are you bored little bug? Better to be a bored bug than be nothing at all. I will not kill you. You dont take up very much space and I can spare it. Just don't go getting inside anywhere you shouldn't get inside. Be a good bug and I will let you live. I wonder if anyone has read any good bugs lately? I think I better go to bed...before I write something daft.....
i was thinking of writing a poem about that very thing...little bugs on the computer (one was a miniature of the black-spotted yellow-green garden thing) also tiny red spiders on the wall. i realized i used to kill them out of fear, not because they'd done a damn thing to me. and i felt so much love and compassion for them, oh my god.
Usually when people think, they find solutions. When I think, I end up more confused.
There is an evil thing afoot, a yellow jacket nest has sprouted by the house and it must be terminated. They swarm all over me whenever I try to leave, and killing only attracts them more. Hornets, wasps, and yellow jackets are perhaps the only thing I fear.
