Wishing Well
“Hello?”
Wind rattling dry leaves overhead
Shiver of dead grass
A single droplet falling into water
“Heloooooooo.”
“Humph. You think I’ll answer just because you say it again?”
Grin.

Suzie’s House 185 : Crowded
“Ahhhh. That felt goooood.” Miranda rolled over in bed and grinned at Vin. She felt like the cat that ate the cannery. “Happy?”
“Very.”
“I can only think of one thing that would make it better.”
“Hmmm?” He closed his eye, a wisp of a smile on his lips, clearly convinced nothing could be better.
“Ice-cream.”
FF55: Costume
Like magic, the cape and boots and big floppy hat with a feather longer than her arm transformed her. “Pirate!” her friends said. “Poet!” or “Some historical guy.” Only when she turned did they see the tail. “Puss in Boots” it was.

I am a wronged librarian, hear me roar.TTMT: Is It Working?
Lately I’ve been getting a LOT of s p a m in which people say my web site is broken. Normally I simply delete it off and go on with my life, but a little while back a friend had trouble commenting. Have you had trouble commenting? Are pages not loading, or loading slowly? Is my slip showing? Just wondered.
Fwd: Olympic Tower 2016
Olympic Tower 2016… for
Rio de Janeiro
This vertical structure will be placed in Cotonduba Island.
It will be both a observation Tower, and a welcome sign for the visitors arriving by air and by
sea at Rio de Janeiro, where the Olympic Games 2016 will take place.
The project is from Zurique, and utilizes solar energy during the day with its solo
power panels, to pump the sea water as seen in the model.
The movement of the water will be also utilized to turn the turbines
and produce the power to work the system

Suzie’s House 184 : Knocking Her Up
Ben could tell by the way Gene was trying not to smile that something was up even before Lisa said anything to Tracy.
“Hey. You ready to go home?”
“Not yet.” Tracy marched past, shouldering her way through the kitchen. “We’re going to rescue Miranda.”
FF55: Talk Fast
I tend to swallow my words.
There was a time I told long tales,
Enthralled my audience with my regales.
Ignored impatient tappings of feet
And delved into the mysteries
Of the human condition through the labyrinth
Of my own mind.
And still my mind travels those hallowed halls,
But the words…
Not so much.
