The world, as we know it.

Hmm. Dow's down another 300 points. AIG seemed to have a bit of trouble with it's financials.

There MIGHT have been a missle from the US that hit Pakistan. Well... that's an oops.
( More babble back here )

Aren't you tired of it yet?
Doesn't it all sound familiar?

Now, having said all that... the immortal's view:

Cycles, cycles burning bright,
Moving the world around in my sight.
It's been before, it'll be again,
Prepare for the ride, and smile, my frien'!

Today is my day...

Living with my own brain amazes me. I certainly can understand why it's hard for some folks to be around. Sometimes it takes turns that make me go "HUH?"

For example, I've been redesigning a sterling engine just for fun, working on modifying a still design so that it can also be used as a fuel source for the sterling engine, and checking out geodesic dome designs and thinking really hard about them. You do know there's only ONE design, right? RIGHT? I just have to laugh at myself sometimes.

Thinking bout my friend Doc, and my friend Carolyn, and my baby brother James, and my father George and the connections they have with a tiny yorkie named Picasso. Thinking about the world at large and how they all seem to connect to each other.

Working on three, and possibly four, and possibly five different stories at the same time. I think I'm starting to rehydrate my creative process. Thank goodness for BP&G. They are so much fun.

Now, before I get all mushy and stuff, I'll go do something else. Don't give in, don't give up. I promise it will all be all right in the end.

And, before I go, this bit of Coulton in the morning made me think of that Palin woman. I wonder why I can't remember her first name. Don't tell me. It won't matter. I will STILL forget it. 'Course... it's also usable for a number of folks that I know and love.

Octopus Just do the clicky on the Play Song link at the top of the page.

Luv you, buh bye!

Whew!

Got out of the house with Susi and went to Philbrook, with a winding lost route path through some of the biggest old houses in Tulsa. And a quick stop at the Tulsa Teaching Garden, just East of the Rose Garden inside Woodward Park.

Relaxing, enjoyable, wonderful! We wandered around the Teaching Garden, smelling herbs and plants (um... yeah... plants are herbs. You know what I mean.). Found out that Linda, one of the Volunteers at the Teaching Garden, loves Ren Faires and appeared to be extremely interested in the one in Shawnee.

From there, the Object Project inside of Philbrook. Didn't make it to the Gardens, but will next time. There is just to darn much to see! We spent an hour alone on just this one exhibit. The Object Project was incredible. Images and forms and color and shade were excellently executed in exhibits eschewing emotion and excitement.

Highly recommended, and well worth the 7.50 to get in. Hurry, though. The 21st is the last day of the exhibit.

From there, we went to the StoneHorse Cafe in Utica Square. Had a Cesar Salad with roasted sweet pepper that oddly looked like broiled banana slug. It was done with sweet vinaigrette, and was darn tasty. Even the slug was good, once I closed my eyes on it.

Good trip, great art, marvelous garden, and wonderful company. Thanks, Sis! We'll do it again and next time, we bring flyers!
