Kissing Sisters

Susan is right, I don’t have time to add to the blog. I sit in class most of the day and then I come home and try to write. Looking back on my last entry I’d say the writing course has hurt more than it has helped. Maybe it takes time for all this knowledge to move from my brain to my fingertips.

In the meantime, here is one photo from this year’s Vineyard trip. Our annual stay with Bob, Mary and Charlie (more about that later) could hardly have been better. We laughed so hard we didn’t noticed the almost total absence of that bright yellow object in the sky. One of many memorable comments – Matt telling Diane that she is a, “Delirious little woman.” .

You have neglected to mention, however, that team BCD (Bob, Charlie, Diane) beat team 3M (Mary, Matt, Mike). I will also add that in this morning’s round, I beat both of my parents.

I am looking forward to hearing more about the Vineyard from your perspective. Don’t pay attention to my Mom when she asks for veto power over what you write.

This is not a tie?

Perhaps I should have used furthermore or in addition to or much more importantly. I meant to emphasize the gravity of the game. Matt and Mary, born elsewhere, could have been tribal warlords fighting to the death.

Record Corrector, you read my mind.

Speaking of record-keeping, this history failed to record the individual winners, Bob in first, Diane in second. The warlords were lost in the pack.

Here in Minnesota, we’re taking bets about who “peanut gallery” might be. We’ve narrowed it to residents of Beford Road.

It’s hindsight to say, but just as I might advise Tenet, I wouldn’t call and raise, were I you.

Methinks your language (which I should have scrutinized earlier) gives you away. 111, 40, 60…are those numbers you might identify with?

If those numbers are descriptive of my life or surround, I’m less a participant in it than even I had thought……… Sorry.

Busted. A sidebar email clued me in to the significance of the three numbers, which DO pertain to my life — street addresses of my family, my parents and our kids, not necessarily in that order. Who but Mike could know another’s life better than they do their own…..?
