__I’m Nobody! Who Are You?__
I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you-Nobody-too?
Then there’s a pair of us!
Don’t tell! they’d advertise-youknow!
How dreary- to be- Somebody!
How public-like a Frog-
To tell one’s name-the live long June
To an admiring Bog!
Emily Dickinson

Nice… I threw all the old socks away…. socks are nice, especially when they are new. I love new socks. Ahhhhhh… what to do when my socks aren’t new anymore?

LOL! I love that one too. In fact, I googled “Emily Dickinson poetry” to find the one I posted to you; and got sucked into reading tons of my favorites all over again. Thanks for the muse motivation today! Okay, it didn’t help me get my fact sheets done; but it was a very nice mini-mental vacation.
RYC: Glad you liked my “deep thoughts” of the day. It might not be a deep, booming voice from heaven; but who knew God had email?
LOL!
Not being an author, Yet! (cue music- dun dun dunnnnnn). I really can’t give any professional advice. However, the best cure for writer’s block is to start with a blank page and fill it. I can either be a grocery list or free form stream of consiousness (sp?). Once you get going, you may be able to break open your writing. Most of my best papers/projects/essays, came 6 hours before the deadline. I would be resting my head on a chair turned backwards, so as not to wrinkle my suit jacket, holding conversations with the security guard and a fellow classmate, with the research material in my lap, putting someone elses words into my own. The brain was disengaged and the words came straight through the eyes directly to the finger-tips. Hope that helped a little.

Love the frogs
RYC- Chicago
Hi Ang,
I had a pretty good day. Thanks for asking. Love the frogs. Ive kissed a few myself.
RYC- Just down for the day for business. I used to live there for ten years, so most of that I have done. After living there I have found that the crowds are not for me. I love my eighty acres of land and not seeing my neighbor unless I want too. People here are much more friendly and not in such a hurry, great place to raise my kids.
Howdy

its not easy being green… thanks for your friendship.
