The Daily Earwig: My Favorite Things
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 11:57 AM by CorpGovActivist
Again this morning, the Muses lobbed a soft one right over the plate. Easy to see coming, easy to connect with. I'm gonna rock at the batting cages this spring, and try a faster setting.

Last night, I went to bed chuckling at the fond memory of how http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=7445301&mesg_id=7445301">some buds and I pranked by senior English teacher the night before Graduation. I drifted off to sleep, thinking about the women who have been important and influential teachers in my life.

I was CaliforniaPeggy dreamin', on such a winter's eve. Now, that song's in my head.

But this morning, the wake-up earwig was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O73AVHy7os">My Favorite Things.

From one of my favorite movies. Passed on to my siblings and me by the most important teacher of all: our mom, or "http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=4477152&mesg_id=4477152">Hannah turned Harlot," if you ask our old pastor.

What are some of your favorite things? And who was the Maria von Trapp who arrested your attention, and opened your eyes to hopeful possibilities?

1. Was that just a metaphor?
Or do you really play softball?

Which, incidently, is one of my favorite things.

I basically need three things to be happy - writing, softball, sex. The order varies.

3. Oh, I do not kid about balls. Soft or otherwise.
I owe you a PM, too, don't I?

2. PNAC Tied up with Chain
Snowflakes that stay on my stash and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into spring

Boys in white dresses, with pink ruffled panties
