Twice recently I’ve been asked for my e-mail address and when I listed my g-mail address it was not accepted. Any suggestions?
Nan
It’s a bummer to complain,
especially in poetry’s domain,
where folks want to be lifted high,
helped to loving and to aspire
to transcendent nature and the rest
and bring out what in us is best.
But can one pretend that one is jolly
When all they can see is melancholy?
O turn your face to look at nature
and from its gifts select the pure.
Give up. for now, in finding love
and beauty in mankind’s trove,
for greed and sickly human pride
are rampant now and ride the tide.
I wonder what random means here. I just felt like writing today , “at random”–oh, I get it. It’s 12:51 p.m. and I’m still in my mis-matching pjs. And I’m sneezing like you wouldn’t believe. On Mucinex and nosespray. It’s too cold to go outside and get my mail.
I just sent an e-mail to U.F.’s Anthropology Dept to see if a notebook with “Seminole Town Compilations” is mine or UF’s, from 1962. I also called the office of the foot doctor who trims my toenails to see if I could pay my bill over the phone via VISA. They said I don’t owe anything. So far the day’s going well, tho I know I can’t come up with a poem for d’Verse’s Thursday night.
My computer helper is coming tonight and I’m going to ask her to help me print out “How to Use ‘Press This’ on Word Press” from “Hugh’s News and Views.” Since I’m without wheels she stopped at the grocers and got me chocolate milk and Vtamin B-12, which I’m out of. We didn’t get to Hugh’s Views due to another time-consuming job. Maybe I can tackle it myself. If not, you can read it there if it’s news to you, as it was to me. 11:20 p.m. I didn’t mention the television watching I did off and on. Yay for Nancy Pelosi for talking nonstop for 8 hours!
I’ve been infected by a history complete with crimes against the good of the public, like the buyout/death of alcohol-powered vehicles long ago, the man who holds the patent for a life-saving drug whose imposed cost has put it out of reach for the 99 percenters, and yes, even the recent theft of tips for underpaid waitservers. I won’t go into details, you can find it all out elsewhere on the internet. What I am fearful of is that the giant drink conglomerate that just bought out Snapple will do away with its diet brands (5 and 10-caloric Snapple). I had finally found a non-carbonated low-calorie drink (such as a lemonade-tea version) that I could drink for 10 calories a 12-ounce cup, and a 5-caloric equivalent of a peach-tea combo. My first thought was that Snapple was being bought to keep it from rivaling the larger diet drink companies. The only Snapple I could find at my grocery yesterday was the 120-calorie version. Surely a buyout can’t stop production so soon! It just put the fear in me and brought out my paranoia, in addition to everything else that’s happening nationwide.
Google:
Jan 29, 2018 – Keurig is buying Dr. Pepper Snapple Group Inc., creating a beverage giant with about $11 billion in annual sales.
I love it, Tony! And the art is inspired!

| 2. Instead of wedding gifts, Utah teacher requests items for homeless students |
| When Rickee Stewart walks down the aisle next month, she won’t have any wedding presents waiting for her when the day is over — and that’s exactly how she wants it. The West Jordan, Utah, high school teacher told KSL.com she had no idea there were more than 100 homeless students at Copper Hills High School until the school set up a food pantry for them, and in her wedding invitations, she let guests know that instead of sending gifts to her, they could help provide students with coats, shoes, and blankets. Donations are coming in from across the U.S., and Stewart said her “hope is that we get to not only have this amazing wedding and start our lives together, but that we are able to put some warmth on all of those kids.”Source: KSL |
I’m struggling with this question because I’m writing a novel about a male-to-female gendered individual and am confused how gender identity and sexuality go together. I know there are many combinations and preferences, even asexuality, but my two main characters are both female and both 22/23 year old virgins who are thrown together by circumstances. Jules has transitioned only above the waist while Lucy has never even questioned her identity. Any suggestions or experiences anyone can share? My mind just kind of flips when I consider a good resolution.
