My writing sounds often kiddy
giddy, overly silly, with corn over cheese.
Corn over cheese! The best you can get...you know you're not funny when you have to explain the joke.
Well, hristos vaskres anyway.
Today was easter. Although I woke up to Sunday. I woke up to mumbling.
I woke up to the most intelligent words.
Where the vain ones don't even know what they are.
Although some comprehensible could be comprehended...
Potty.
I carried her to the bathroom.
Wakes me up in the middle of the night twice.
The second was morning but I didn't realize it.
Her smile just makes me want to
forget it's Sunday. Or Easter.
Or a day. A day of the week. A day of the month. A month.
What is that?
Love.

Favorite Quote:
If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. -Henry Thoreau<br /> <br /> To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch&hellip; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded! &ndash;Ralph Emerson
