Happy Birthdays!
Nilly, thanks so much for the card!
lisah, congratulations on the impending aunt-hood!
Kat, I can make no promises, but my now-11-year-old niece in Culver City, but I doubt she'll want her American Girl dolls forever and I can tell my sister I know someone who would want them. It's a pretty good collection, although most of the books she has are in Spanish.
Oh, yeah, there's a beginner obedience class that starts on Sep 20, so we'll be doing that. If she likes it, I may try her in some agility, which looks like great fun.
So of course I got all excited walking through Target yesterday seeing all the awesome cuteness to be bought.
Seriously!!! Also, my younger brother & his wife are expecting a boy at the end of December. It's Harbin Babypalooza!!!
Okay, *real* evocative title: Blood and Chocolate. (The album.)
I was just listening to this the other night! It's one of my favorites of all time.
My evocative title is The Fire Next Time
Have you guys seen the Football Mom Walmart ad? The way it looks, the music it uses? Totally from FNL!
The other hilarious thing walking through Target with my friend was trying to get her not to buy some TV character battery operated toy for the child of her friends who she described as Waldorf/hippie types. We settled on Lincoln Logs.
Nilly, got the card. Thanks. I don't know about the evocative title thing. "Rush Limbaugh is a Big, Fat Idiot?" It totally made me buy the book.
Evocative titles, from George Alec Effinger: What Entropy Means To Me and When Gravity Fails
(But! *Dick*! In a BOX!)
Very evocative. It makes me think of, well, you know, a dick in a box.
Okay, then I guess the last book I read with an evocative title was Richard Price's "Freedomland"(I pondered that one for a while, though the book also told me it was an abandoned amusement park.)
Funny - I used to sell health insurance for NASE. It's really good for self-employed people. Just be sure there are doctors and hospitals near you that accept MEGA. This was over ten years ago, so maybe there are more now that do.
HA! Small world! I haven't had to use them much but the doctor I went to after my fainting spell did take them. (Though I elected to go with an old school indemnity policy.)
Of course, now I'm starting all over with new insurance and, jeez, it's confusing.
