:hnk: I love getting random little lovey notes from my boyfriend :hnk:

I like my world history class too... :roll:

btw... do you guys have an idea for what I can do a report and project on? It can be anything in history that affected the whole world or at least a great deal of it. So far I'm thinking about building a mini trebuchet... but I need some more ideas :?

The invention of the transistor... or the printing press if you want to go farther back... the longbow? the bubonic plague?
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner

How about the Phoenicians? You could construct a nifty little ship, better yet add water and make it float!

My husband actually agreed to take me out on a date this weekend! YAY! Dinner and a movie! :D
But now I have to make up my mind whether to see Matrix Revolutions or Master and Commander -- I want to see both of them!!!
Which to choose?????? :?:

I just spread about five pounds of birdseed and peanuts and sunflower seeds on the ground outside the window. The little birds and squirrels are having a riot eating them. The cats are sitting in the window having a riot watching the bird party. I am having a hoot watching the cats! :lol: :lol: :lol:

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Don't know if you ever found this out or not, but The Song is I Love by Tom T. Hall

I Love


I love little baby ducks,
Old pick-up trucks,
Slow-moving trains,
And rain.

I love, little country streams,
Sleep without dreams,
Sunday school in may,
and hay.

And I love you too.

I love, leaves in the wind
pictures of my friends
Birds of the world,
and squirrels

I love coffee in a cup,
little fuzzy pups,
old TV shows,
and snow.

And I love you too.

I love honest open smiles
kisses from a child,
tomatoes on a vine
and onions

I love winners when they cry
I love losers when they try,
music when it's good,
and life.

And I, love you too...
Yes I guess we can all just get along !

I baked a chocolate cake last night. I frosted it as soon as it cooled down enough...we ate it freshly frosted, still warm from the oven. It was very, very good. :) 8)

Friends who really, seriously, genuinely are actually bothered. Not many of those around, so those there are should be treasured :)
