12. Classes start on Monday...
Got back to my own place this past Sunday. That was not an enjoyable day, haha, but things have picked up in the past few days, I'm back into the swing of everything.

Glad you survived your dreaded shopping trip, haha. :hi:

59. Why, thank you, sir.
I much prefer my glasses to my new contact lenses. When I got them, the optician emphasized, "You can only wear each pair for a month, and then you have to throw them away." She seemed really puzzled when I asked her, "How long can I wear them if I only wear them once a month?" :shrug:

My disposables were good for two weeks. 'Course, that was like 10 years ago.

And usually I couldn't stand 'em for more than about 10 days.

76. Yeah, and the thing is
I like to win, too; everybody does. And when we win, we naturally want to celebrate. But as much as I hate sore losers — all the blaming the refs and whatnot that went on tonight — I think I hate ungracious winners more. The in-your-face stuff really pisses me off. It's absolutely uncalled for.

Mind you, I'm not saying Texans have any corner on the market. It's just that tonight it happened to be Texans, or fans of UT, who had reason to celebrate, and I knew some of 'em were gonna get nasty about it.

32. Lemme tell ya a little story about my boots, gf.
When they first arrived, I suspected they were a little too big, but I tried them on some more, and enlisted the advice of my 11-year-old goddaughter and nearest fashion maven, Luisa.

Me: "Luisa, do you think these boots look too big for me?"
Luisa: "Whatta ya mean?"
Me: "Well, if you saw me walking down the street, would you say, 'Wow, that lady sure has big feet,'?"
Luisa: "Oh, no. I'd say, 'That lady sure has big boots.'"

So, every night when he comes to bed, he kisses Ginger and then gives me a recap of the evening, which I promptly forget. Then, in the morning, when he has coffee, we give one another a recap of all the previous recaps. We leverage our synergies that way. :rofl:

60. Got a few paragraphs down tonight
I've been in a spot that I wasn't sure how to articulate, and I made some progress on getting through it. That's the way it goes...Go hard for a little bit, then stop and think for a while.

67. You know what I like about you, as a writer?
I like that you actually write, just as I like that I actually paint. I have very few pet peeves, but one of them is the whole phenomenon of people who dream of writing or painting (or whatevering), yet they don't get much further than talking about it. Any of us who are actually doing it have made an critical first step. Big up to you, EP! :hug:

65. Hi and hug, farmer texanwitch!
The shopping trip taught me some valuable lessons: 1) I'm too old for this crap; 2) I shouldn't even try on hip-huggers; 3) Getting home is the best part of any shop-o-rama. :rofl:

Make the most of those four remaining days, darlin'! :hug: :loveya:

75. I will get back in a few weeks but that is just for a weekend.
I visit every other weekend, but this two weeks has been great.

My dog will be angry with me for making her leave, she will give me that look for a few days.

77. "That look . . ."
I know exactly what you mean, gf. When I got home from shopping yesterday and Ginger discovered that I hadn't bought deli roast beef, he sat with his back to me for half an hour. Nothin' like good pet-pout to make us feel guilty, huh? :cry:

82. I take the dog for a walk in the woods across the street, I am lucky to
have the woods to go to. My dog always looks for the resident wild rabbit but she will never catch it, that rabbit is fast. We have a lot of wild life over there, including hawks, and a possum or two. The little creek used to have fish and turtles but not anymore. I just love to go there, the dog is hard to get home.
