*gently pounces on addy*
DD!
I was so heartbroken not to have been able to see you while you were on the East Coast... things were just a little rough while you were here.
Sounds like you had an incredible trip! I remember the last time we were able to be together - at lunch - discussing your work and a book recommendation. Always love when I can see you.
Next time, there will be hugs. For real!
You were missed!
You know that book has been so influential! I remember that day well.
Next time for sure!

Hello DD!
Addy, C18 has very nice writing, the rest of us chicken scratches!
I laughed at the melt down thread! It was likely BWG making problems!
Morning peeps! That's all I got.

I'll see your 'morning' and raise you a 'good'.
It's humping day, how could it not be good?
SOMMSY, it's this damn weather. I just want to sleep. Too much to do though....of course work gets in the way too. Hopefully this weekend I will get most of the things I need to get done...done!
I am thoroughly done with this dark, rainy, very humid weather.
Right? I need to get the clapper for my aircondition. It's on..it's off...it's on...it's off. If it wasn't for my puppies I would keep it off, but the humidity is too much!

Thunderstorms going on here this morning.
I love thunderstorms when I am in bed or crawled up on the couch.
Ditto on the air conditioner on... off... on... off.
Hate the humidity. I want to wear my pretty Fall jackets. I can't wait for clear, crisp Autumn weather.
Today is my niece's 20th birthday!
I cannot believe she is 20! She was JUST BORN!
But, today I celebrate the beautiful, smart, fun, charming, talented, kind young woman she has become. I'm so proud of her!
Feeling wistfully nostalgic this morning...
(is 'wistfully nostalgic' even a real phrase? Well, it's how I feel!)
Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it's hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember?
The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you've seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life? (do you remember?)
Reach out for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The mem'ries are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?
Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I don't remember growing older
When did they?
When did she get to be a beauty?
When did he grow to be so tall?
Wasn't it yesterday
When they were small?
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears
THAT song is a gem.
And makes me cry...
Such beautiful lyrics.

"Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember, and if you remember,
Then follow."

Well I saw the thing coming out of the sky
It had one long horn and one big eye
I commenced to shakin' and I said oo-wee
It looks like a purple people eater to me
It was a one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater
Sure looks good to me
Well, he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
I said mr Purple People Eater don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn't eat you 'cos you're too tough
It was a one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater
It sure looks strange to me

Oh...this IS jukebox Wednesday, isn't it?
Q, another song I adore...
Moony... LOL.
Good to mix things up!
I remember about 18 threads ago we put together an Adult Smoking Thread music list... I actually started to put together the playlist in iTunes, but never finished. I'm sure the thread is lost to the ages (as so many of the early-ish Adult threads are), but I remember it was one helluva song list! Songs from 'our era' (the era that started this thread!) as well as others that came to mean something to us.
Moony - I adore that song!
Remember when you ran away and I got on my knees and begged you not to
leave because I'd go berserk?? Well...
You left me anyhow and then the days got worse and worse and now you see
I've gone completely out of my mind.. And..
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa
To the funny farm. Where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be
happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!!!
You thought it was a joke and so you laughed, you laughed when I had said
that loosing you would make me flip my lid.. RIGHT???
I know you laughed, I heard you laugh, you laughed you laughed and
laughed and then you left, but now you know I'm utterly mad... And..
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa,
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
To the happy home. With trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket
weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!
I cooked your food, I cleaned your house, and this is how you pay me back
for all my kind unselfish loving deeds.. Huh??
Well you just wait, they'll find you yet and when they do they'll put you
in the ASPCA, you mangy mutt!!! And...
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa.
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.

Lovin' you is easy cause you're beautiful
Makin' love with you is all i wanna do
Lovin' you is more than just a dream come true
And everything that i do is out of lovin' you
La la la la la la la... do do do do do
No one else can make me feel
The colors that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old
And we will live each day in springtime
Cause lovin' you has made my life so beautiful
And every day my life is filled with lovin' you
Lovin' you i see your soul come shinin' through
And every time that we oooooh
I'm more in love with you
La la la la la la la... do do do do do
Do they have divorce for cousins?
What? It's a beautiful love song.
