Oddities and Endsies
This is Rose. She is an amazing cat. Yes, she is.
Probably my last post before Delta flies me over the ocean to London next Wednesday. I’ll be in London and Paris with my traveling buddy Jeannie for a bit over two weeks, half in London, half in Paris, my ninth trip to my favorite city. But my first one to London, so very excited. I plan to keep my 100 Day Project intact; I imagine I will have no trouble finding photographical pleasures while I investigate the place.
If I remember in all the whirl of traveling, I’ll post the May screensaver on or about May 1. It’s all ready to go if I can only remember to send it to you.
PLEASE NOTE: I WILL BE TRAVELING AND UNABLE TO SHIP ORDERS FROM APRIL 24 TO MAY 15.
Meanwhile, here are some recent things that have tickled me.
Matchbox art of the 1920’s, Japanese style.
Herds say thank you after crossing the road.
The Peculiar Art of Overcomplicating Things. A British Rube Goldberg.
Here is the link for the Heath Robinson Museum. It will amuse you if you enjoy such lovely silliness.
God got cable.
And for a week
watched nothing but
Didn’t see the comet.
Didn’t see the hurricane.
Missed that baby
being born entirely.
Just watched cable.
Funny thing is,
He liked it.
He knew he wasn’t supposed to.
All those girls
crying about their
boyfriends.
All that soap and toothpaste.
He liked it.
Couldn’t help it.
Then Gabriel ame
over with a deck of cards
and next thing you know,
they’ve played poker
four weeks straight,
Gabriel’s beard nearly
as long as God’s
and corn chips all over the place.
And what God decided was that
He liked not cable,
not poker,
but a break.
Every now and then,
even God needs a break.
