vacation time

I can't wait to get away to the beach. A whole week. If I didn't buy a pack of cigarettes today, I know I'm doing good because today I wanted one so bad. Still do actually. It was rough for a Friday but I don't want to talk about it.

Yesterday was officially the first day of summer. Time to forget our worries and cares.

Oh, the good old days.

How do I look?

I feel pretty.

I was glad to find these pictures in an article in the New York Times- "Muslims veils test limits of Britain's tolerance". Though reading the story, I got the impression all the comfort should be for the ones in the strange costumes and not for us dressed normal. Somehow reminds me of The Munsters where Marilyn is considered the weird one. The world is upside down. I see more and more coverings on women here at home but not as extreme as these. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/22/world/europe/22veil.html?pagewanted=1&en=824eb302053d4208&ei=5059&ex=1183176000&partner=AOL

Don't burn that flag!

"I don't want to talk about it"

On Saturday afternoon, while doing chores with the t.v. on, I happened to come across the movie Moonstruck. I had forgotten how much I loved this movie. It is from the late 80's and is filmed on location in New York City and there are some beautiful shots with the Twin Towers. We see these every now and then in past films and t.v. shows.

This is the movie where Cher gets her oscar, though she was better in Mask where she was first nominated and this particular oscar I thought should have gone to Glenn Close for Fatal Attraction.

"Snap out of it" and "I don't want to talk about it". It was all Cosmo's moon. There is a lot of drinking (and eating) but no smoking. Lots of amore and good dialogue. Definitely thumbs up on this one!

Yes, we have a Flag Day

I would not have known it was Flag Day had I not seen it on the internet. Don't remember hearing anything about the anniversary of D-Day, what June 6th was it? Oh well. I have nothing to write about.

Cheers.

Forty years ago?

40 years ago, say it isn't so.....

Sometimes, can't sleep, sometimes need a cigarette badly. Has nothing to do with the Beatles, I know. But there is lots of talk about the 40th anniversary of this album. I'd rather not talk about it right now.
