Info Pimp

"Libraries are brothels for the mind. Which means that librarians are the madams, greeting punters, understanding their strange tastes and needs, and pimping their books." Guy Browning (The Guardian column, www.guardian.co.uk 18 October 2003)

nothing that interesting

Today I talked to my sister who's living on a M.O. with other artists in Goonengerry (near Mullum, folks). It's rained solid up there for 3 days - the second highest rainfall in the state yesterday - 1st highest was my old hometown.
And she was telling me about the flooding creek and the wet chooks *phew* and sitting in front of her fireplace.
Was great to hear.
Made me homesick too.

I flipped on the teev tonight and saw Grumpy Old Women - stayed watching and laughed so hard I cried. Am now worried because I could relate to a lot of it - AND I'M NOT EVEN 30!
God knows what my memory will be like when I grow older. And yes, I am already starting to look like my mother. At my mothers' wedding earlier this year, Mr M told her she looked foxy. Odd. But I love him. And I think that I shall continue to love him. Especially if he'll still fancy me at 50.

heehee! I watched Grumpy Old Women too with Miss B. - and I was wishing I was old enough to get away with the 'Sorry, my memory is so terrible these days - what was your name again?' line. Would come in handy twice a day at least ...
