Aussie Bites. Giant cucumbers. Slumber parties. Zoos. Jungle cats. Clark Gable. Good Earth tea. Band practice. Church picnic.
Sorry, just brainstorming things to BLOG about. Ice cream. Hey, don’t scoff. I have real stories. Really….
Okay, you got me. My life is mainly of no interest to anyone, myself included. I guess I’ll make up a story and say it happened to me. (Shouldn’t tell you that—you didn’t see anything.)
Once upon a time, there was a plaid overnight case. One day it was found buried under an ancient stack of books filmed with dust by an unemployed college grad, just grubbing around for a copy of The Three Musketeers. An old guy had once told her, “Carpe diem—seize the day, make your life extraordinary.” Pondering these words, she straightaway grabbed the case, swiftly walked to her car, and drove off into the sunset. She had an odd feeling that she wouldn’t need anything else. Not even a toothbrush. (She was right).
Soon this now starry-eyed traveler (let us call her Nora Charles) came to a fork in the road. Without hesitation, she turned…up. And the road? Well, where she was going, she didn’t need roads. In minutes, Nora was among the stars, and the earth was in the rearview mirror. She thought, “This is space! Course, I'm just in the beginning of space--I haven't even got to outer space yet!” It was the most beautiful thing she’d ever seen. (Of course, the most beautiful thing in the world is a match well made. However, as Nora did not have first-hand experience of this phenomenon, Space remained in the number-one spot.)

You may wonder what I’m doing BLOGging on a Friday night. I don’t know either. So…see ya.
