Today is a two-fer as I kept to my committment of writing at night in my journal, but just didn't get around to posting....I'll take what I can get.

Barbara- loved the Picasso piece...you nailed that one as I'm sure ALOT of people wondered what the models were thinking. Great work!

Write About a Time You Changed Your Mind

Jyll was doubly cursed born a woman as well as a Gemini. She was fine with her lot in life as it allowed her to go where the wind took her, so perhaps the curse was really the reaction of those around her. Friends who shook their heads and muttered under their breaths that her indecisiveness could drive them to drink. "Why can't you just make a decision and stick with it?" Jyll never felt like something was wrong with her wiring, but she did notice everyone who saw her faults was so tightly wound and rigid in their thought process, they were ready to pop. To get to "C", one must pass through "A" and "B". How boring, Jyll thought. Who wants "C"? It's average, it's the answer you are supposed to pick on an exam because the Law of Averages says so. Let's bypass "A" and "B", touch "D" enough to massage it into life and then leaf over to "F" where the fun is. That's what Jyll wanted to do, but the frowns and sighs directed at her tamed a piece of her until she no longer recognized herself or the sound of her own logic as it screamed in defiance within her brain.

Write About Slumming

All the rich kids got to slum during their college summer breaks as Amy slaved away at the farm her parents owned. "What did you do during the summer?" Her friend Chelsea would ask with white teeth glowing against a suntan that had been crafted carefully and methodically at her parent's Country Club. Amy would shrug her shoulders, blush and make up something, hoping the nervous sweat coming out of her pores didn't smell like hay and pig farm. None of her college friends knew what her life was like outside of school and Amy intended to keep it that way.

Safe travels Barbara ----we will miss you Thursday night!
