when i am a cute older lady

or maybe just when i'm middle-aged and my kids are in high school, i am going to have some funny stories to tell them.

i mean, the absurdity of my life in the last 2 months is one thing. but just in general, i have the most ridiculous things occur to me. and you know the saying, everything fits into either two categories: a good time or a good story. i've had quite a bit of both.

i think i might very well stop giving people reading advice. maybe i really do lack in guile, and some of the subject matter i chew on has no affect on my views because of it.

but i have two instances that i was just aware of when i pretty much called out something in someone by telling them a book they should read.

creepy.

or maybe i'll just not tell people to read Ayn Rand or Hermann Hesse, or Nietzche.

haha. instead i'll tell them to read Wilberforce or Lewis or something.

also. i just realized that I am reliving a segment of my life from exactly 7 years ago. well, let's just say that i relived it in 3 hrs yesterday. how funny that it just hit me now....as i'm sitting here in this little tea shop in chicago.

now we just have to see how it turns out. seriously. my life is a joke.
