Mossie?

Oh I can't wait till the lilacs are in bloom here. They're my favorite flower (remind me of my grandparents--scent memories are so compelling), and I can only hope we get through their season without a frost to wilt them. I like to be able to get at least one or two cuttings of them before they fall apart.



Welcome. I've really enjoyed reading your higgeldy-piggeldy poems, and look forward to read your posts--both sacred and profane. Forgive me for not welcoming you sooner. I've been in editing and essay scoring hell for the past three weeks.

I see you love Langston Hughes. Me, too. I've posted this link before, but dunno if you're familiar with it:

Weary Blues

It's Langston reading and accompanied by some gorgeous jazz.

thanks for the welcome ange. understandably, everyone gets busy. no worries.
i absolutely adore the Langston Hughes link. my first time seeing it. thanks. the jazz is delicious. we've got jazz, cooking and poetry in common. i will definitely be seeing you around the boards:)
 
Oh, you beautiful, young puppy!

ok.....i'll take the beautiful young puppy anytime. but does that maean that i got it wrong? now you've made me more curious (and self conscious):eek:
who is the mystery lady?
 
Ok who knicked the crown jewels? Last person who tried that ended up in the tower!
It has been unbelievedly hot here today like high summer and I have been dragged round a local street market trouble is he kept losing me well he should know by now that book stalls need investigating thoroughly, and wait quietly on the sidelines instead of forging ahead and wondering where he left me this time. I've just had two inches cut off my hair so I am afraid the Lady Godiva impersonation is a no no right now due to lack of nipple coverage. My stepson is 44 today which makes me feel dreadfully old even though I am nearer in age to him than his father! Perhaps we could raise a glass or two in celebration

That would be me what took the jewels. But since BJ chose to knick Cleo's gaudy headdress, I put Queenie's bits back in the 'ole.

And to your young stepson (he's older than my wife!), up with a pint!! Up, up all!!! A Guinness to the lad!
 
Next year I'll start on my crown a bit earlier and perhaps get the Claudette Colbert headdress done. This year it was a simpler, if taller, affair... And there were a few crowns there that were completely fabulous. One woman had a sort of native headdress thing made of inflated, neon-colored condoms. And our Court Jester went home wearing one of my sarongs as a headscarf.

I'm sure loststar will stop in later and give a bit more of a report, once she recovers...

That pic was a bit deceptive since really, Claudette wasn't in color in that movie. She's a hero of mine; most people know her from the movie It Happened One Night with Clark Gable, but she did a lot of wonderful stuff. If you haven't seen her Cleopatra, you should; it's gorgeous.

Here's another stunning outfit from that film.

And as long as we're remodeling, I was thinking of this sort of feel.. goes with the amoral squalor theme.

Somewhere on one of the disposable cameras that were floating around last night is a shot of three kilts being lifted from the back.

It was an interesting party. Not too bad at all.

bienvenue. Anschul, I have some vitamins, some ginseng and a few oysters for you. You look... a tidge tired.

bienvenue, babies!

Oooh, that's me kneeling under the statue on the left.

I got the idea from early practice for this role.

(I wanna see the condom crown!)

Early Drama Queen leanings, I see. Good for you!

Yeah, I think that's just the atmosphere we want in here. Although I'm thinking of substituting the word "debauchery" for "squalor". Debauchery is squalor with better decor and much tastier food.

and I forgot to offer a cake to the Witchling's stepson! We had a fine one at the party last night, with boobs and everything.

I'm digging around to see if I can figure out where those cameras ended up. I wonder what's on them... They were not in my jurisdiction for most of the evening.

Thank you! I remember that day (eons ago though it was) quite well. I was *being* the Statue of Liberty. Too bad I couldn't find the pic where I'm in the classic arm-raised pose.

Happy B-day to the witchling's boyo, indeed. I made really awesome brown sugar cookies this afternoon. I'll send them cause erm heaven knows I don't need them calling my name!

So if you didn't have the cams that likely would mean there are some very good candids of you, wouldn't it? :D

(Your new av title makes me giggle.)

I do have a vague memory of joining Binky in a full lip-synch rendition of this when it played on the jukebox. There may be evidence. Of the incriminating sort.

... Binky.... *sigh* Picture a very large, extraordinarily boisterous, 30-ish hairy boy wearing a utili-kilt and enormous hiking boots. Soul of a five-year-old, body of Clydesdale.

He's always a fine addition to a party.

If you can spare a thought for me tomorrow night having a meal with my husband, his son, his daughter and her husband ... and his ex (yes his ex that I knicked him off when I became floosy of the month 10 years ago!) oops have I just tarnished my 'sweetness' forever?!
 
Sorry, didn't mean to make everyone even more uncomfortable bumping that thread.

But still, weird.
 
well bj, yes there is photographic evidence of this perticular karoke session
you just have to find it....so it might be lost forever and I think your discription of binky is perfect

Maybe if it had only lasted a month or something, that would be different. But after a solid ten years I believe "floosy of the month" gets redefined as "obviously the better choice."

Sorry, didn't mean to make everyone even more uncomfortable bumping that thread.

Meh. i hardly think you did any damage. I just think of it as a wacky little movie I can choose to watch or not.

glad to see you're all safe and happy today! I've been lost in the peace of the shop and hadn't gotten around to checking in.

Binky is indeed a jewel. He helped with a poetry challenge in here a while back. Lemme see if i can find the link; it was before you got here but you might want to join in. I'll bump it if I find it.

tonight I get to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. It's too beautiful to even contemplate.

You didn't make me uncomfortable. Quit that apologizing and go write a poem or goose Bijou. She loves that. She'll give you a latte. :p
