1. I want to write a poem where Global and Fragile rhyme. 2. A quasar, a pulsar or a blazar. Quantum physics can be so confusing when they make up words for things practically no one understands. 3. Reality is a quantum leap / The future is a spectrum/ where entropy meets possibility / the […]
It was a birthday celebration feast for two friends who share the same birthday. We ate and made merry and saved room for cake. The raspberry ganache bombe cake from Cocoa Mia was the bomb!

Joey Klein took his time to make me his valentine He drew a heart and said, “That’s a start Now we’ll never be apart”
We’ve been transported. Actually, Joe drove 9 hours straight to get us to our first stop in Florida, Ichetucknee Springs, just north of Gainsville where we camped for a couple of days, kayaked and swam in the natural turquoise spring pools. We were almost up the creek without a paddle. Joe noticed at the last […]
1. Taylor Swift is the musician’s version of Meryl Streep when it comes to getting awards and the young version of Joni Mitchell when it comes to boyfriends. 2.
