Time is on my side, yes it is. I just don’t have enough of it lately.
I need time to get used to my life as it is. Postings will be weak, like the tea your grandmother used to make for you, tea loaded with cream & sugar and not quite strong enough — even for a ten year old.
I need time to learn I can’t outdistance a thunderstorm, nor can you so don’t argue with me on this I tried it a couple of nights ago and it is not possible.
I need time to find a place to shop for underwear as Victoria’s Secret is now full of nasty push up bras in unsightly colors. I discovered as well they have delegated my cotton panties to the back under some flimsy black and gold see through tee shirt, not to mention the place has turned into a pink hell. Not the pale fuzzy pink of a baby’s butt, a garish Tammy Faye pink.
I need time to read books, run, and to tend my zucchinis.
I need time.
Time may even make Mitt Romney go away.
My find for the day ( well not actually my find I stole the find from a blog called dionysus stoned under a post titled The Bloggers Manifesto ) was a spectacular blog called A Beautiful Revolution . Artwork and words, words which are artwork. You must go there, but go quietly into the revolution so as not to disturb the piece within the turmoil.
The piece below the cut belongs to the artist there.
This will take you to the exact site of the picture. The link above will take you to the blog.
You will thank me.
You’ll come running back (said you would, baby)
You’ll come running back (I always said you would)
You’ll come running back, to me
Right?
Your choice of sensible/comfortable underwear somehow reasures me.
I have too much time, particularly in my head. You may take as much of it as you need.
Stand in the storm.
I don’t have time either. I think it’s an epidemic.
By the way, you forgot my anniversary. 500 posts and I can’t even get a kind word from one of my most favorite readers/writers? Sheesh. LOL
Never try to take on a thunderstorm.
Take time to smell the roses, or the zucchini. Does Zucchini smell?
You might want to consider giving golf a shot again.
I know what you mean about books, I have a lot of catching up to do too.
Great picture/words.
Hey, I liked A Beautiful Revolution. A real poet. Maybe even a goofy one.
Zucchini makes better bread and tastes better grilled than a blog. Just don’t go away entirely.
Your weak is most people’s strong.
I like that you don’t link to every crap blog out there and that you post links to things I’ve never read and probably would never have found on my own, and they are always good.
I feel bad that I agreed with the “hot artsy fartsy intellectual girl” thing oh so long ago, because you are much more.
Go plant some Zucchini.
You should go to a baseball game.
That is a cool blog btw. I may have to link to that one, and I’m not usually interested in poetry or art.
I hate Victoria’s Secret too. Really, I do
I never shop VS anymore. I used to like their cotton underwear but now the stores are simply gross, for the most part anyway.
I should take some down time for reading too.
Tres cool, A beautiful Revolution
Gulp! Not evin a ten year old? Im glad im elevin!
I am so glad you are not taken with all that silly pink which passes for vickie’s secret these days. All those gorgeous models on the runway but that’s the best they can do commercially?
Besides, you look so much better in commando.
Never stand outside in a t-storm. Just two days ago, some unfortunate kid across the way from TMI was barely done helping a neighbor whose front-yard tree had been hit by lightening when… gads… he was hit by lightening as he walked up his drive side-by-side with his father. His father survives. He did not.
He received his diploma and teaching certificate from Millersville U just a month ago.
coyote: I like to be reassuring.
I hate to take tings out of your head mikey.
Stand against the storm is more like it.
mojo: I am sorry, I will run right over and harass you.
500 — lord we are a sick bunch.
jacob: no it does not smell, at least not that I am aware of. Got me thinking though.
Doug: I thought it was a nice place. I may have to add it to my blog roll. Maybe I already did, I can’t remember anything these days.
Naw, you couldn’t stone me hard enough to get me to stop.
casey: You should feel bad.
I’m done planting and waiting for the harvest.
No baseball games for me, I don’t eat hot dogs.
Zydeco: I heard you got all your underwear there.
Kait: Tres cool is right. Yeah it’s back to the department stores for me.
Indie: You scared me for a minute.
sauerkraut: Don not pretend you have seen me commando but your right I am spectacular that way.
No I do fear storms and at the first sound of thunder I am out. I used to play soccer and I think I was the only girl out there who would leave the field at the sound of thunder. They usually waited until they saw the first bolt of lightening before making us get off the field.
Everyone needs time to enjoy what’s out there.
I’ve never been in a VS store. I just read the paper version.
I am “landlocked” here holding down two jobs, I know what you man about no time.
For you “no time” means posting only twice a week, for me it means monthly.
Nice link.
I hope you planted some peppers.
You could make some more time by not sleeping. 4 hours a night was all most really productive sorts — Edison, for example — needed.
Really? Victoria Secrets and their quest to put pushups on every woman.
Are they that uncomfortable? I thought it was the prices you pay. $50 min for a supporter.
Anyways, have a good weekend!
Your blog just keeps looking better and better, Cooper. I’ll try not to be jealous, but I’ll be lying. Victoria Secret? I left them in my spending dust when a girl with a butt bigger than mine told me they don’t sell size 8 undies about 7 years ago. Fine. Macy’s works. At least then you have a choice.
Thanks for the link to A Beautiful Revolution. The poetry is simple, the art very different. The whole site is very unusual and appealing to my closet text/font/graphics self. Nice.
You kid with the “light post” stuff.
Thanks for that link, always finding the more arcane.
“Time may even make Mitt Romney go away.”
If only.
I’m always reminded of the line from Star Trek Generations (yes i know but i’m a geek what else am I going to do!):
Time is the fire in which we burn…
oh and i do thank you for that link!
John: You’re not missing a thing, keep reading the book but remember those girls don’t look like that either.
G: Land locked is a nice way of putting it.
peppers, green beans tomato, and zucchini.
Jason: I used to rarely sleep, at least in college I napped in the late afternoon and early evening and then stayed up very late. That habit is hard to break but after a few rough mornings it gets much easier to break that habit.
Kelly: I thought the beautiful revolution was a great find. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
I was just stunned really as how they have pinked it up and how their stuff seems to be more cheaply made than a couple years ago. I couldn’t find the “what most people wear” section amongst all the pink and perfume.
Joe: I never kid.
Lee: Welcome for the link. I don’t watch STG but that is a fine line.
“Postings will be weak, like the tea your grandmother used to make for you.”
I wish I could write like that. Wow.
