Geckos, Feng Shui Bells, & Plum Wine - Good Day!
* Morning walk podcast: Diane Rehm show: Book - America & The World she has on both authors and they discussed current events specifically having to do with the situation in Iraq and policies / governments that have a stake in it.
* Today I had a dentist appointment (cleaning) - I listened to a really good Aspire podcast from 12/6/06on the way. After the appointment I picked up my friend Alexis, and we checked out the Unlimited Thought Bookstore - good stuff! I was on a budget, but got two strings of Feng Shui bells and my friend generously picked up the tab on a book and video for me. The bells are very nice. A string about 4 foot long maybe with tiny bells that ring in time to nature - hard to describe.
( Political Rant for the Day Behind Cut )
* I stopped by the grocery on the way home, and when I came back out to the truck - I had a passenger! I was so surprised - I wasn't sure what to do. I said "Hi There" - and he looked at me (I mean - he really looked at me), and just stood his ground. I pulled out the camera to get a quick picture before he took off - but he didn't take off. I took another pic as I reached to him - and he got on my hand just as calm as can be. I carried him to a bush and let him disembark onto a branch. Cool - made my day.
* I got it in my head that I'm ready to see if I can get a nice alcohol induced buzz on without smoking. I've steered clear of all alcohol since quitting smoking almost two years ago. I bought a bottle of Japanese Plum Wine (kind of like an upscale Boone's Farm) and poured myself a glass over ice. I sipped it relaxing on the swing in my back yard and allowed myself to get pleasantly buzzed while I watched the stars and listened to Rickie Lee Jones on my iPod - Pure Heaven!! - I will do this again.
