Silly trivia fascinates the heck out of me. Maybe that's why I save sentences that jump off the page right into my brain. Someday when I go to 'eat my pie in the sky,' those who will go through my endearments will find scraps of inspiration in drawers, books, under the bed, and probably even in my shoes. Or, if I stick around long enough I'll shred them, leaving no trail of where my brain has been.
On a happier note, I invite my readers around the globe to please join me in wishing my girlfriend in Arkansas a top-notch milestone birthday today. Her captivating personality warms and tickles the hearts of all who are gifted by her friendship. If I was in Arkansas today, we'd clink our glasses, sip a bottle or two of that little water stuff, and laugh till we'd pee in our pants!
