one: i am currently watching in HDTV
the red sox game @ oakland
in the middle of the afternoon.

happy sigh

two: i got a notice from the library that a
book is overdue.
??????????????
shirley, you jest.
a quilting book.
seems reasonable, but i couldn't locate the book.
not in the house, the car, the driveway, or the fridge
so naturally, i must have returned it.

went to the library to give my tale of woe.
they said they'd look for it,
and asked for my library card.
um...my library card?
it should be here somewhere...
please stand by...
to which the librarian peered over her half glasses
and said,
"perhaps your library card is with
the quilting book since you can't seem
to find either one"

score two points for the librarian

duly chastised
i hung my head
and promised to try to find where the book went
(no promises on the library card)

anybody seen a quilting book
with a library barcode on it?
