ReplyDeleteYou really are a sharp cookie, and a funny one too!
ReplyDeleteThis afternoon I was watching my daughter's fast pitch softball game. I have a Kindle. Since I live far away from book stores, my e-reader has become a very enjoyable thing for me.
ReplyDeleteI like the phrase "sharp cookie." Smart, yet down to earth and savvy. Good for you, "sharp cookie!"
ReplyDeleteAmen to there being a lot of eye-roll worthy stuff out there. I alternate between rolling my eyes and shaking my fist. I've been out of the blogosphere for a while, so didn't know you'd had gall-bladder surgery. I do hope that you're feeling lots better by now. I'm happy to hear that you're teaching creative writing!
ReplyDeleteWhat Harriet said. lol
ReplyDeleteAnd Lord yes! There is much to cause eye rolling these days. I just usually don't go in public with my eyes showing much. I'm a stealth roller now.
I agree with the eye-rolling and do-nothing non-celebrities. I am sooo tired of hearing about the Kardashians.
