whether through chemical balance or planetary alignment this past weekend was both restful and successful. like death and taxes i am unable to get around certain menial chores but these were done with a modicum of grace and ease.
time did not seem to hold a first class compartment on the bullet train and i felt relaxed. the dirt and i spent a great deal of time stringing together a series of little activities that amounted to not much and it was glorious. of course the corner drug store becomes a veritable wonderland at this time of year and i can spend hours cruising the aisles of halloween decorations and paraphernalia. why this very moment i'm sporting my new 'dracula's drool' lipgloss!
the bewhiskered babies love having us lounge around as this is a natural state for them and to get up and race out the door is an affront to their sensibilities. so all in all i’ve an over-all feeling of satisfaction...yes, shy of being left with a bright blue handprint on my shower tile and an overwhelming, inexplicable thirst for an icee this past weekend was near perfect.

prevention is kinder than destruction. each year over six million healthy dogs, cats, puppies and kittens are killed as surplus. remember: neuter, spay and don't let them stray!
