Apparently it didn't take much to "amaze'" folks back in 1931
Although you'd think the denizens of Frisco would be more than a bit jaded.

Creative control
So long as we're forced to lay around recovering
\I'd like a little more say as to location
and view.

As long as I'm recovering..
through in a chaise lounge (architecturally appropriate of course)
and a butler (suitably uniformed)
And I'd be a happy boy!

Laid up!
Alrighty, So I spent yesterday morning debating an extra jaunt to the gym, finally deciding to ignore the little voice that said "rest" and away I went to work out. All was well and fine until the the return trip home. my bike had a little disagreement with the road resulting in a damaged & stitched knee hand lacerations and a damaged bike helmet (thankfully, otherwise it would have been my head)
All this means I'm laid up for a week or so until the stitches on the knee joint heal properly. No bike riding, cardio, swimming or bending my knee allowed. Might as well tell me not to breathe or eat. while your at it
Of course, with no such company as above.I'm already at my wits end three hours into my first day. Feel free to send some beef around kind readers!

Send THE MAN OF YOUR LIFE in plain wrapper, if not delighted, I may return it in 10 days for refund.
Would that it were that easy!

WHAT?!? AGAIN?!?
BP Spills 2,100 to 4,200 Gallons of Oil in Arctic Tundra: "This Saturday, BP put another notch in its prodigious polluter belt: A toxic brew of methanol and crude oil spilling across Alaska’s North Slope tundra. Reuters reports: BP said on Monday that a pipeline at its 30,000 barrel per day Lisburne field, which is currently closed for maintenance, ruptured during testing and spilled a mixture [...]"
Why is BP still allowed to even touch oil???????

Go ahead take your pick!
PringleFurniture Co., Detroit, Michigan, circa 1912.. Showroom
A little on the warehouse side for a sales display, but still I'll take the compartment desk, umbrella stand, fluted pedestal and any one for the flip top tables.
Who couldn't use a little more encouragment?

Revisiting
I spent this weekend traveling to Portland, ME for a wedding. Any travel of any kind requires that I bring and read my copy of My Mortal Enemy, by Willa Cather, one of my particularly favorite authors, as I've mentioned before.
My Mortal enemy is one of her lesser known novellas, at 122 tight pages it reads more like a well crafted longer short story, immensely suited for short plane, bus or train trips. Agreeably readable and enigmatically fathomable it can be entertainingly read on both journeys to and from destinations. Not until recently did I discover the equally fascinating history to the story which makes for more than enough drama on it's own before Cather so deftly took her hand to it.
It's a book I have to hide on my shelves, should I come upon it while dusting I am compelled to open and read it .And is most probably the source of why I've never been fond of carved amethysts.
Find yourself a copy (I prefer the hardcover illustrated edition) and let me know what you think!

Gym to work wear
