To look sassy definitely. Spare with me, I haven't had
any coffee yet....
How is Europe today?
About the same as yesterday I think.
Hangon!I'll look out the window.
Yep-same as yesterday.More or less.
Why are you up so early?
The dog wanted to go out. At least he let me sleep until
7:30 am, so I can't complain.
That's where cats come in handy, right?
Not always.That ginger tom I had used to start dive bombing me at four in the morning and any other time it felt like it.When it was a kitten I mean.These days it is as you say but the kitten time is still best.
Same with kids don't you think?
Yes. My child will wake up on weekends too early, and
come Monday she is sound asleep and has to be woken up.
It will change though once she's a teenager (by then I'll
be a nervous wreck).
You never wanted kids?
That's right.Can't see the point of the little monsters.
Do you like WC Fields?
Yes but you can't cheat an honest man.
Why do you like him?
His quotes are legendary. Other than that he was
eccentric, like all brilliant people.
Agree?
Yes, "You are telling me"!
Have you 1 million dollar legs ( the movie, I mean)?
He was real cool.In the movies I mean.His book was cool too but it didn't carry the conviction his screen parts did.
Wasn't Flaubert a bit that way?
Sure he was, brilliant!
Can I deduce you like Flaubert more than WC Fields?
No, I don't have the movie (nor seen).
Is it recommendable Francis?
No spendius, Flaubert was just daring, no comparison
to Fields.
Why are you so hung up on Flaubert?
I'd like to know too, Jane.
What gives, Spendi-?
I just love the whole osmosotic process oozing through my conk from his pages.(And others).
Does that make me "hung up"?
Not necessarily.
What other interests in the literary arena do you have?
Too long a list and if I pick a few out it might look like they were my favourites.It already has done.
May I have your permission to dine now?
Sure, go ahead. I just finished breakfast.
What's for dinner?
Don't know. I know you were asking Spendi-, but it's too early to tell here. I'm off to the beach in a while.
What are you doing today?
Oh.The usual,you know.Food.We have to keep chomping our way through the nutrition bed.It's a bit of a chore really.
Do you think some people might be hung up not reading some authors?
I don't know yet. It is still overcast here at the beach,
but my daughter and her visiting friend want to be entertained. Since they've been all week at surf camp
at the beach, I doubt that they want to do thatagain.
Probably some sort of amusement park (which I hate).
Before that, I need to go to the groceries in a short while.
You like being a mother?
