Random Thoughts – on homemade gifts
I’m teaching myself to knit.
Because you’re never too old to give your mom a lumpy, lopsided, homemade scarf potholder for Christmas.
.
Do you give homemade gifts?
Do you like to receive them?

The Kiss
I think this song is so beautiful. I want to cry every time I hear it.
Love, risin’ from the mists
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touchin’ me
Like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touchin’ me
Like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss
Sun, siftin’ thru the grey
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swoopin’ down
Just to show me
How to give my heart away
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swoopin’ down
Just to show me
How to give my heart away
And once a crystal choir
Appeared while I was sleepin’ and called my name
And when they came down nearer
Sayin’, “Dyin’ is done”
Then a new song was sung
Until somewhere we breathed as one
Appeared while I was sleepin’ and called my name
And when they came down nearer
Sayin’, “Dyin’ is done”
Then a new song was sung
Until somewhere we breathed as one
Stars, burstin’ in the sky
Hear the sad nova’s dyin’ cry
Shimmerin’ memory
Come and hold me
While you show me how to fly
Hear the sad nova’s dyin’ cry
Shimmerin’ memory
Come and hold me
While you show me how to fly
Sun, siftin’ thru the grey
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swoopin’ down
Just to show me
How to give my heart away
Enter in, reach me with a ray
Silently swoopin’ down
Just to show me
How to give my heart away
And lately sparklin’ hosts
Come fill my dreams descendin’ on fiery beams
I’ve seen ’em come clear downWhere our poor bodies lay
Soothe us gently and say
“Gonna wipe all your tears away”
Come fill my dreams descendin’ on fiery beams
I’ve seen ’em come clear downWhere our poor bodies lay
Soothe us gently and say
“Gonna wipe all your tears away”
Love risin’ from the mists
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touchin’ me
Like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss
Promise me this and only this
Holy breath touchin’ me
Like a wind song
Sweet communion of a kiss
Judee Sill was talented and kind of tragic. You can learn more about her on The Lost Genius of Judee Sill on BBC Radio 4.

Random Thoughts – on cat shaming
Every now and then, my cat will suddenly swivel her head around and look at me with an expression like, “How dare you?”
And I’m like, “Wha’d I do?! What? WHAT?”
But all I get is the cat glare. Icy. And not a little condescending. “You. Should be. Ashamed.”
And then she slowly turns away. Because she’s thouroughly disgusted, and that’s all she’s going to say on the matter.

Have you ever been cat shamed?

Random Thoughts – on toilet paper
When you go into other people’s bathrooms,
and the toilet paper faces the “wrong” way,
do you ever change it?
.
Just so you know,
I wanted to,
but I didn’t.
~~~
So, over or under – how do you roll?
