Got Creative?

Let it flow.

Do you feel creative?

East. This Hurricane?

Are you and/or were temporarily East, in Irene's path? If you are, I'll worry about you! On that note, I need to make sure my brother's okay.

Should I be worried? Are you?

From a Chicagoan.

Essay Excerpt!

At the hotel conference room weekly meeting the manager flipped through notes, “Sheila, the Swedish Embassy is booked for Friday through Sunday. Just make sure they get,”


“Oh!” I interrupted, “I’ll stay the weekend, make sure each one is personally greeted and has a personal concierge!” I shouted from the edge of my seat.


The manager looked up at me, “You’re completely over the food poisoning?”

Spruce up Blog!

The long gone composer Franz Liszt is on my mind. He's simply wonderful. And aren't you simply bored by this? If I didn't love great classical, it'd likely bore me.

How do I spruce up this Blog? My varied past is going into a manuscript and my today's are pleasant while I work, read, write, do Yoga and live at home.

So?

Does your physical body shudder?

Do you shudder when you hear, for instance, the blare of a garbage truck in reverse? Or say, when you hear an electric construction drill?

This is the single disadvantage, for me, of life in the city of broad shoulders. Always optimistic I need to find good from this situation.

Good news: at least we're in America where change for the more civil, more gentle, is still an option.

Years ago, assigned an article about noise pollution, my research made me aware that noise pollution effects a human's overall health in a not so good way. Even if you don't think it does.

Does it bother you at certain times? What do you hear?

Gain Weight! A How To:

For this Pear shape at five feet, four and a half (the and a half is because I maintain good posture) inches tall, I've stayed a healthy 130 pounds basically for the first part of my life and I say that because I'm only 45 years old! Hunger is my cue to eat the exception being an a occasional sweet tooth.

I don't own a scale but I'm sure I've gained several pounds because in the last month; I eat more because I'm irritatingly hungrier. What's changed?

A good daily multivitamin plus minerals supplement!

So does this mean the vitamin is what I need or should I return what's more normal for me? What would you do?

Heads Up

Hold Your Head High

A Closet Tackle

Do I attack my closet, with clothes that beg me to just get it over with and wash them, or do I break out the clean items left (example, too sentimental, fancy, pricey gifts from sisters, significant other) or do I trifle through my my many garments to find something, anything, clean?

Decided! Something, anything, I'll go with.

Perhaps during the (not so) Fair and Water show today I can at least begin the tackle. Why not now? A word to be written a new book in the wings, and that's it.

Do you for whatever reason find your priorities skewed? Is it cause for serious concern? Or just concern? Or not?

The (not so) Fair and Water Show

Today - the skies above will loudly be invaded by the Air Show and my windows, closed. Hey, wasn't our military, as recently as the debt ceiling debate, concerned about if and how they were going to be paid? And what does it cost for the (not so) Fair Show to happen this weekend?

Crowds gather, no matter, so let's put that money to better use and find options for celebration like having the brilliant people that made these brilliant (albeit costly) machines, give speeches. Or we could celebrate literacy or the recently uncovered Chicago Camp Douglas, did you know that after Andersonville, it was this country's second largest Civil War Prison Camp? Or, let's celebrate personal achievement and that involves the majority of us!

Do you agree?

PTT, WHAT?

In attempts to comprehend my new (ahem,16 week old) phone capacities I've taken to reading the enclosed User's Manual which makes me so bored it's near as painful as a corneal abrasion.

For example, "During PTT, press Talk on initiating. To leave the PTT call do not answer incoming." Pardon me?

The Manual is 80 pages full of this jargon.

Do you consider it, jargon?
