idle thoughts

[spiderdust]

~Work again tomorrow. I think I like the 3:30 shift better than the 1:00 shift... only dealing with customers for 5 hours instead of 7.

It's colder than before,
The seasons took all they had come for.
Now winter dances here.
It seems so fitting don't you think
To dress the ground in white and grey.

~ldyicefire made some egg-free chocolate chip cookies tonight. for some reason, the cookies turned out rather flat & more cripsy than usual. She measured all the ingredients correctly, so we're not sure what happened. I don't think it was because of the egg replacer; it almost seemed as if the dough didn't have enough flour in it. It's a mystery!

It's so quiet I can hear my thoughts touching every second that I spent waiting for you.
Circumstances afford me no second chance to tell you how much I've missed you.

~Fall is nearly here. YAY AUTUMN!!! Time for sweaters, apple cider, long sleeves, warm socks, chili, longer nights, fuzzy blankets, oven stew, smells of woodsmoke and cinnamon, warm jammies, fuzzy slippers, burrowing under the covers, sipping hot chocolate while browsing through the L.L. Bean catalog, darker mornings, baked apples and fruit crisps, roasted pumpkin seeds, flannel sheets, and apple butter.

My beloved do you know
When the warm wind comes again
Another year will start to pass?
Please don't ask me why I´m here.
Something deeper brought me than a need to remember.

~Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
"You may find that you are confronted with the strange and bizarre today, dear Libra, and that there is a strong force pulling you towards this side of the fence. Feel free to release some of your inhibitions and allow yourself to fly with the strange flock. You may find that you need to make a decisive stance on something today. Be confident about whatever way you choose, and try not to get too concerned about the outcome."

Good grief, what's going to happen at work?!? I'll be on the look out for "the strange and bizarre", whatever that may mean. Perhaps it simply means that I'll glance in the mirror.

We were once young and blessed with wings.
No heights could keep us from their reach
No sacred place we did not soar.
Still greater things burned within us.
I don't regret the choices that I made.
I know you feel the same.

~Why is it that when the Munchkin hears the opening song from the Disney version of "Robin Hood" (you know, the one that the rooster sings), she looks concerned and confused, but when she hears the Hampsterdance song (which is the SAME SONG, just sped up), she is all smiles and starts dancing her little heart out?

My beloved do you know
How many times I stared at clouds
Thinking that I saw you there?
These are feelings that do not pass so easily.
I can't forget what we claimed as ours.

~I've posted my lists from today's grocery expedition here in veggie_grocery, in case you'd care to take a peek.

Moments lost though time remains.
I am still proud of what we were.
No pain remains, no feeling.
Eternity awaits.
Grant me wings that I might fly.
My restless soul is longing.
No pain remains, no feeling.
Eternity awaits.

~I think I'm feeling a bit nostalgic and wistful.
