A Book Title for Each of You

Yesterday, I was so gobsmacked watching a grown man acting like a three year old having a tantrum that I was unable to process anything serious. When I went to the library and was browsing, I saw titles for everyone that would be appropriate.

Dragonflyby Be Careful What you Wish For
Dramus Tell the Machine Goodnight
great martin Eat Cake be Brave
Kristy Room On the Porch Swing
Elkhound Treating People Well
Joan Dobbs True and Constant Friends
Laura The Curse of the Boyfriend Sweater
Marg Crafts
Jeremy Believe Me
John M Gardening For everyone
Jondude Chez Maxim's
Tealstar Meet me at the Museum
Jeri The Girl Who Never Read Noam Chomsky
Martha The Land of Steady Habits
Deb G. The Fur person...to be shared with Jon Adams
Merchandiser Practical Problem Solver

Now, do you agree these titles suit our personalities insofar as we have grown to know each other? They just jumped out at me. We used to play these little games and I thought it might be refreshing to do it again and take a little break. I probably left out someone and if so I am heartily sorry. So many have left us.

Yes, I must be careful what I wish for! The things I want are unattainable or not good for me.

I didn't know you were a fan of trains.

I haven't read it, but it sounds like it would fit.

comment by jerms on Sept 28, 2018 8:16 PM ()

I think it would fit nicely.

I am very flattered, Jeri! I do indeed have a smattering of steady heart habits (kindness, caring, empathy) which have survived by lifelong love of serendipity, impulse, and surprise!

You are that kind of person.

I haven't been to a museum since about 1995 when I took my late friend, Penny (tears here) and her daughter Stephanie, to the Met. I took a photo of them standing under a huge metal horse, under the balls no less. It was a funny moment. It's time to go to a museum again. :(

Museums are great. By the way, I lost another life time friend, Celeste. It felt like a horrid punch to my gut. I know how you feel about Penny.

But Fredo, you've all but abandoned us. You have found other outlets. We miss your posts.

Awe I love this! What a fun idea. I havenâ€™t been able to watch any of this drama because my parents are here... Iâ€™m sure they are in full support of Kavanaugh which makes my stomach churn.

Kristy, I have never seen such a loss of dignity.

reply by elderjane on Sept 29, 2018 4:05 AM ()

Please don't...you got Perfection.

comment by elderjane on Sept 28, 2018 3:16 PM ()

Oh dear, I left out Kevin....Grandpa's Handyman Secrets and Tim...The Vein of Gold. Plus Eddie who makes it all possible...Perfection.

comment by elderjane on Sept 28, 2018 3:16 PM ()

I feel left out.

comment by eddie on Sept 28, 2018 3:07 PM ()

See above.
