What's making you happy today? - Page 357

I've just seen the first House Martin of the year. A week later than last year but at least I've seen one. What will probably happen now is that there won't be anymore for weeks. I shall try to dismiss that pessimistic thought from my mind and look forward to the return of the Swallows and those real masters of the air, Swifts.

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

Oh that's just fucking bizarre. I was playing with Pilau bout fifteen minutes ago and when he found the toy I'd hidden, I shouted "Callooh! Callay!"

It's not somethng I would normally say...

No, they're not in the least bit unusual around here. In fact, I would go so far as to say that most of the local populace come from the outer reaches of the galaxy. Well, let's put it this way, few seem to be of 'this world'.

My people, then.

Ah, you see, those waves of genius must have hurtled down the M1 when I needed inspiration.

HLJ I am glad to hear you guys were able to fix the CO problem. Sorry you can't work from home, anymore, though. Husband lost his job, so he is constantly "working from home."

This is what is making me happy today. We have to find a cheaper place to live, now that our income is significantly less. This is what we have found:

Hey, that looks pretty cool. I'd LOVE to have a barn. And look at all that space for the kids to run around. When the leaves come in, it will look downright gorgeous.

You could certainly plant a garden.

classicman · 04-20-2010, 03:56 PM

Wonderful! Looks so peaceful there.

DanaC · 04-20-2010, 03:56 PM

Awesome barn! I like!

Was able to sing a 19 note range today during my voice lesson. Hit the upper notes w/o the teacher kicking me in the nuts this time.
