I know I’ve stated on numerous occasions that I refuse to use emoticons.
I got an email from a friend yesterday and it was prefaced with a little yellow smiley-guy blowing a kiss. I laughed. I keep looking at the thing. Is this how emoticons are supposed to work? I guess I finally get it. It is hard being an emoticonazi. I’m not saying I’ll start using them, but who knows? I can change.
Thankful for
the dental practice I frequent. I had a cleaning on Monday. I do love them all so much there. The new dentist, Dr. Wilson, who replaced the fabulous Dr. Brookes, gets a high thumbs-up from me. She’s got the same gentle touch that Klepacki has and that Brookes had. I am, however, trying to avoid x-rays to the head but I know one of these times they will insist and I will say yes. I have a friend who’s gone her whole life without even one cavity, who has never needed braces, whose children don’t need braces or glasses, and who, between her and her husband, still have 4 living parents. How does that work? And does this kind of information really belong in this post?
I love this bowl with its funny blue flowers
I love pink
I love spring today, even if it’s a bit cold out. It’s rainy and cool and the plants LOVE it.
I love the dream I had about a month ago in which Heath Ledger (alive) was standing just behind me, breathing and leaning in very close to my left ear. He lingered there, warm and dusky, saying something in his low Australian voice. He was slightly unshaven, scruffy; he had a hat on. I know he was gonna kiss me. But he didn’t.
I love when famous men visit my dreams. I am a lucky woman to have such a generous imagination.
Here it is people
Kiss my ass

Gotta say Twink, I’ve always hated emoticons too. Then a friend, knowing my aversion, kept tweeking me with them until I retaliated in kind. She did send me one the other day that gave hugs, I liked that.
Try this camera lady, instead of taking a picture of your reflection, try turning the cam around and viewing the view finder in the mirror. You only get arms length distance, but you don’t have to share the frame with the camera.
Glad that the Central PA weather that I’ve had to deal with all week has finally found a new home
emoticons are just part of the language of the technology, but I’m half technophobe. Maybe that’s part of it. Who knows. Who cares. No one. And remember: hate the emoticon, love the emoticon-user. Or something like that. I still see the good in the folks who send them my way is what I mean to say.
Viewing the viewfinder in the mirror YOU ARE BLOWING MY MIND! HOLY CRAP I will try it.
Yes, the weather here was so windy last week. Today was very cool and damp, but I don’t like too much heat. We really need the rain we’ve been getting. I take the cool weather with a reminder to myself of the many 100+ degree days last summer. What does 100 degrees plus a hot flash equal?
Ciao, alpha. thanks for stopping in! twinkly
I love how you embrace life and face each day with a renewed inspiration. Totally inspiring. I love Spring too except the “allergy” part of it. thanks…
I am anti-emoticon as well, but if they had a yak emoticon, I might use it.
LOVE that pic!
right. We must find some tech savvy person to make you a yak emoticon. Have you googled for one yet? Must look now…
