Hello, fellow Gemini!! Your unfulfilled ambition made me laugh - you may have been serious . . .but it still made me laugh! We have a trip planned for fall of 2024 and we are supposed to go to Egypt. I hope it happens. I've always wanted to see the pyramids!!
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I've never heard of a loofa. What are they like?
ReplyDeleteI had a very similar answer to Y.
ReplyDeleteMy family sent to Williamsburg in 2010, I believe; it was very nice! I got my MLS at 39.
ReplyDeleteTo be abducted by a alien?
ReplyDeleteWhy?
I don't see a Captcha...
ReplyDeleteI think you should write that book - whether it be a novel or just non-fiction. I think you can do it, especially given your background.
ReplyDeleteBirthdays? I'm older than you, aren't I?
Bizarrely, I would love to meet an alien - see? I told you I am weird.
;o)
Cheers
