Oh Harvest Moon Part 2


Inspiring quotes about the moon:

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon,
my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
Mohandas Gandhi

If the Sun and Moon should ever doubt,
they'd immediately go out.
William Blake

You moon the wrong person at an office party
and suddenly you're not "professional" any more.
Jeff Foxworthy

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

Damn! That was the wuote I was going to use.
Oh well. I'll just listen to it instead …
Great harmonies from Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor, too.

Yeah, it is the one that comes to mind when looking at that big, big moon.

OK, onto Maryann.

Oh come on! All this talk about moon quotes, and neither of you laughed at the Foxworthy thing. Maybe Old Knudson is right--maybe I am a simple soul. I thought it was funny, anyway, in the context of the other quotes at least.

I did laugh, Robyn, but when I went to comment with a hee hee, I got distracted by Sassy having out-cooled me with Neil Young.
Drat!

Well, OK then. I was beginning to think my sense of humor was so off that no one else would even chuckle.

I laughed really hard, actually. It just didn't go with Neil. I also thought about Denny's. I hate Denny's. It's disgusting. This one time, however, I went there in college with a friend to study (it was open all night). We were a little punchy, and we couldn't stop laughing at this dish: Moons Over My Hammy.

Happy Birthday...

to me! Update: Since you have asked, I only got one actual packaged gift, a beautiful hand-made bracelet from a friend, but both girls were home for the weekend, and we had dinner at the lake and a relaxing weekend. Thanks to all of you for your lovely wishes!

My Sitemeter is All Bloated and Not Quite Itself

I'm tempted to let it sit on the couch with its feet curled up under a blanket, a hot cup of coffee in hand, a block of cherry almond bark Chocolove within reach, and An Affair to Remember spinning in the DVD player. I'm one of those obsessive bloggers, the kind who checks her sitemeter as often as possible throughout the day, the kind who gauges the quality of her writing by the number of readers who regularly stop by. I've become less interested in the overall number of hits and more interested in the number of repeat hits. The return visitors are the ones I long for. When my sitemeter reads forty at the end of the day, and the majority of those hits are webpals who have conversed, I'm happy. Forty may seem low to many of you, but I've only been at this since August. To me, forty is a jackpot. A few days ago, I sat down at my laptop and discovered a number somewhere in the eighties. Eighties! Yippee! Yeeha ! Hoo-rah ! I've been discovered by the webworld , o...

Ish People

Tell an Ish person to show up around 9 a.m., and you'll see them somewhere around 9 a.m. Tell them to show up at 9ish, and you'll see them anywhere from 9:05 to 9:20. You have given them license to dilly dally, and who wouldn't take advantage of that? The other night at the big shindig dinner party, one of the drummers said the rehearsal the next morning would begin at 9ish. "I am an ish person," he says. Immediately the clanker goes off in my head--oh, good, I thought. I can deliver my daughter a little late. No Ish person is early, so if you say 9ish, that does not mean give or take 5, 10, 15 minutes. It's exclusively a taking phrase. Take an extra 10 minutes to drink your cup of coffee. We won't mind. We're Ish people. Sunday's rehearsal started at 2:00. Because it was conducted by the same people who conducted the Saturday rehearsal, my understanding was 2-ISH. My daughter is worse than I am about taking liberties with Ish time frames, so she d...
