Talk to the Goat

Lovely. Just lovely.


I think some of your humidity is leaking on me down here. We call it "air you can wear"... and I am in multi-layers of it now!


The gift thing is hard isn't it---this year, for Valentine's Day, Dave and I went to an Italian Restaurant in our neighbourhood, and sat in the foyer where they have cocktail tables and a fireplace. He gave me a gauzy bag with a handwritten note attached, and when I opened it, I found a pendant with labradorite and a pearl twined together with a silvery braid. It was quite lovely and I held it up to my throat so he could see how it looked; he reached in the pocket of his jacket and brought out a silver collar that he'd bought mne years ago that I use for pendants and brought it over; then reached in his other pocket and brought out a hand mirror he'd brought from home so I could see how it looked. I was totally in love at that moment. It's in the giving.


I myself do not own an Ipod.

But that's mostly because I haven't bought one yet.


My other half likes to break out in the middle of a serious conversation or just in the middle of nothing with, "Honey? I just want you to know; I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier." Sometimes he calls in the middle of the day just to say that.


si vous voulez!
macher de la gumme!
vous allez au 'picerie!
puis en l'acheter!

another summer-time fun activity: repeater songs that we sang in school.

did you guys sing that one? spelling doesn't count; my grammar - english and french - is absolute crap.

aaaaaaaaaand, what's the favourite patio ya'll frequent? next trek down, perhaps a margarita time.


You can't be the elitist bitch with a superiority complex that I am because you are promoting the Killers.

I will love a band that isn't huge and wish they would have more success, but once I see a mall twerp with one of their CD's I just want to rip it out of thier hands. But some bands I guess you just want to do well, even if you have to share them. Yay to all the bands who brought back the new-wave sound.

Oh, and I guess I lose the elitist bitch contest, becuase of my recent sushi excursion


Okay you got a sore jaw from licking your new MP player.


This post is way too long for me to read right now. Can I come back and read it later?


I love The Port...brings back memories. How many people can say they can still see a movie for $4.25 in their town? Not too many, I should think!

Sounds like you had a great weekend! If I had an MP3 player, I would definitely download The Arcade Fire's album, Funeral, and Po' Girl's Vagabond Lullabies.


Sharkboy & Lavagirl?
Pfff... shoulda seen Mr & Mrs Smith. good times indeed. And Angelina = drool


Brad Pitt = Can Suck My Ass


Glad to hear you've enjoyed your weekend!


I think you should try to wear both pairs of goggles at the same time and see what happens.

It's true. It is impossible to walk in a straight line with Thriller in your ear!


Is it safe to wish you happy birthday now since it sounds like you won't let us know when the day quietly slips by?

I like the idea of prolonging celebrations by doing some before and after gifts. We've done variations of that for many years and usually celebrate 'birthday week' as well as the day.

I think you have done a disservice to your readers, however, by not including a photograph of you in your Lava Girl 3-D glasses!


OK, I realize it was 6 or 7 years ago, but Michael Jackson? Seriously?


Always MJ.


What a beautiful post Jay!
Spontaneous playtime with your bestfriend, lover, and playmate cannot be beat. Of course your description made it all the more lovely.
Congrats on your new gift/toy too!
PS. By your explanation, are we to assume you will not want blogland wishing you a Happy Birthday, when this speical occasion rolls around?
3T


I like best wishes all year round, and birthdays be damned.


Yeah, I'm a music-whore, too. I'm totally one of those types that walks down the street as if there's no one there swinging different parts of my body to the beat...cheers to the excellent present and v. cool outting, too!

*bitter about reading the third reference to licking today*


I'm jealous and I want to come live in your pocket. I'm sorry, that's just how I feel!!!


God bless Margaritas. No love for the iPod?!?? Screw the lightbulb, That iPod invention changed how I listen to music.


...Brad Pitt can suck my ass too...


Humidity totally blows. I have been trying to stay indoors other than my foray into the wilderness on Saturday for a wine festival. Nothing like spending a day drinking copious amounts of an alcoholic beverage that is at the bottom of your list, pour me another! Enjoy your new MP3 player!


I hate the humidity. And it is starting to thunderboom now..
They're calling for a break by Wednesday, thank you very much...


I admmire you for going out for walks in spite of humidity. Good for you! This is a beautiful story, thank you for writing so much, and thanks for visiting my site!


Happy early anniverysary and b-day. My anniversary is coming soon too lol. I want 3D glasses


Oh I'm glad to hear it wasn't terrible...my son wants to go, and i'm always a sucker for 3-D!!

And happy "upcomings"!!!


Love the title! Nice play on word.

You've got a good man there!


We're taking the kids to see Shark Boy & Lava Girl tonight. I think, somehow, that knowing the movie was coming out on the last day of school was the only thing that kept my son going that last week (he was SO bored ) Glad to hear it was fun anyway.
Gosh, I hope they're handing out cool Lava Girl glasses for us girls here too!!


You turn a weekend into a great read.


"I am tingling. My neck, my shoulders, the tops of my breasts, they tingle with heat."

My oh my...
