Funnier than you think
Every year or so, I start to laugh and …. well, it gets out of hand. Some would call it hysteria. I like to think of it as uncontrollable mirth. That is not to say that I only laugh every year or so! I laugh quite a bit 😀
I often scare people in the card shop when I come across a particularly funny card and start to titter. Last year, I found a really good birthday card with a stork theme that cracked me up. You know who you are 😉
Anywho, I digress …

I had a subscription. Oh yes!
There is a new ad for the US Postal Service that makes me shiver. It prominently features a clown – a creepy clown. I don’t like clowns, creepy or otherwise.
A couple of years ago, I took my mum and my sister to Las Vegas for a bit of shopping, a show and a fabulous dinner at the Bellagio. All was going well until the fabulous dinner at the Bellagio. I picked the restaurant because there was a view of the fountains from the window and the food was French. What I failed to notice was the theme of the restaurant – the circus. There were clowns. I ate my dinner with eyes downcast. I couldn’t taste the food and I didn’t notice the fountains 😐
Anywho, I digress …

How much is too much?
I have always drunk a lot of tea – in a typical day, maybe 8 pints of black tea with fat-free milk. Yes, 8 pints. I really like tea.
Every year, at my annual physical, I get told to cut back. I have never paid any attention to such an outrageous request! I don’t like to drink water, never liked soda/fizzy drinks (Champagne excepted!) and will drink coffee when Typhoo is not available. Typhoo is expensive in the USA – if you can find it. My Mum sends me large tea parcels several times a year to keep me going. Thanks Mum! I have always firmly believed that caffeine has no effect on me. Oh, I get withdrawal headaches if I miss a cup here and there, but that’s about it … or so I thought.
I have been “at leisure” recently and, consequently, my tea consumption has dropped as I have no real routine. Routines are good, but there is something (well, quite a lot actually) to be said for waking up without an alarm clock and planning the day on the fly.
For as long as I can remember, it has taken me 2 hours to fall asleep at night. I never fall asleep in front of the TV. I am not a morning person. At times, I am not much of an afternoon person either.
Anywho, I digress …

Mmmm. Orange!
I still love my new Kindle – even more now that it has a stylish orange cover 🙂 I love orange. I love my Kindle. Life is good.
Anywho, I digress …
