Thoughts for a Friday Afternoon

Query: Is it bad to attempt a relationship with a woman when you already know her friend is infinitely more attractive? No, I'm not discussing the two POIs but another woman who contacted me this morning.

I am very tempted to apply for a job in Scotland. The idea to move very far away both scares me and intrigues me at the same time. So too a job in Anchorage, Alaska. My parents have encouraged me to do it and they are my voice of reason but I'm still not sure. What say you?

And can I just add that while acceptance speeches are boring and many of the performances at the Grammys were quite good, I can't say having only like three awards an hour really pleased me.

Go go take either job! Speaking as someone who doesn't know you, I'd advise to to take either one. How can you choose? Well, if you're nervous about too much change, take Alaska bc it's still in the US and you can continue to be an American and maybe the plane tickets are cheeper? If you want girls, go to Scotland bc I bet they'd like our accent and if they don't learn theirs and then come back here and you'll more babes than toyland.

Finally, don't go out with someone if you are at all are attracted to her friend. That's not cool and it's the plot of many a lightweight young adult book/movie/advice on back of squeezable yogurt.

This Is Where I Was And Will Be Again

These are pictures from my first trip down to Southwest Florida this past October. The 'rents and I are going back down tomorrow so I thought I'd give all one of you a clue to where I was. This is a local park called Ponce De Leone Park. I like this shot because it shows some differences between down there and up here. There's some pretty tacky homes down there. Some homes, maybe that one, are worth about a million dollars and don't look much more interesting than that. By the way, we hope to see a real manatee or two this time... This is Gilchrist Park. That water in the lower left corner is actually part of a big fountain. Again, this shot shows a big difference in climate from up here. Interestingly, this park has the more extravagant Ponce De Leone statue/monument. Weird... We will probably visit this park again at least once while we're down. The theme of differences continues here, al beit morbidly. I had to get a shot of this as it amused me. (Although the ...

Remind Me

Remind me to complain how boring and unexciting my life more often because as soon as I did, it got really exciting really fast. Last night, we had four visitors arrive from Korea. They like ziti and garlic bread. Go figure. They will be staying until Sunday night. I told my mother (AKA Hyacinth Bucket) she was making way too much salad but did she listen? No. Now we have this huge-ass bowl of salad in the fridge...What's really irritating is first the fork we use to serve catfood went missing now Susie's dish is missing as well... Tomorrow, I have a physical to prepare for my surgery then I go to my orthopedist's to fill out consent forms. Woo Hoo! I hope I can find time for a haircut as well because... Friday, I have a job interview at a library in Massachusetts! It's a reference job but I also will be conducting a book group. I've never done that but it sounds really fun. Sure, I'll be stuck reading many book that sucks but isn't that what book group i...

Thank You Al Stewart

Well, I'm back from taking care of all those cats. It was actually one cat who had the the run of most of the house and 9 others that stayed in one bedroom; two of which I never saw the whole time. The biggest challenge was changing the litter boxes twice a day. One of the littlest kittens escaped from the room about a half dozen times and was harder and harder to catch. I spent most of my time watching old TV series and movies. I watched episodes of: Magnum PI including the pilot, Hunter including an episode the DVD box hyped had Ed O'Niell in it but also included "Fran McDormand" who perhaps is more well known, Charlie's Angels including the episode that aired originally the day I was born which also happens to be Jaclyn Smith's birthday..., Quantum Leap , Remington Steele , Sledge Hammer , Father Dowling and The Avengers . All series Lady Vader probably doesn't remember since she was under six when they originally aired. (OK, The Avengers and...
