TLK-isms

Posted on by

One of my arms (and corresponding hands) has felt oddly cold, off and on, since the spider tried to eat it off.

I went into TLK’s room on Saturday and put my hands on her arm.

Me: “Feel my hands. Does one feel colder than the other?”
Her: “Erm…. No. They feel the same. You might want to try someone else.”
Me: (laughing) “Who? The dogs?”

Even though Ginger gets quite verbose at times, I’m not quite sure she’d have anything to say that I’d understand. I’m not sure…she’s…coherent, really. :)

Hugh Laurie

Posted on by

I have an ear for accents (doesn’t everyone?).   I’m amazed each time that I watch House, MD that I can’t detect any sign whatsoever that Hugh Laurie is British.    His accent is perfectly American.    I keep waiting for a sign of any sort that he is not authentically American.

How does he DO that?

“If you’re going to repeat everything I say, this conversation is going to take twice as long,” he just said to a patient whose husband is feeding her crap in her oatmeal to cut down her sex drive.  (idiot)

Ok… I’m getting really hooked on this show.   You may even be able to watch full episodes at that link if you’ve not seen it.

Updated:

Hugh Laurie’s Conan O’Brien video (too funny).   Listen to Conan’s humorous attempt at a British accent, and the response to it (“There might be a street where they talk like that”) lol.

Love is Good

Posted on by

Good things are coming around the corner. I’m ready for change. I’m ready for trust and reliability and fun and just “getting it”, where life is concerned. Couple-ness. Working toward a goal where “WE” are the goal and being excited to grab for the brass ring.

There are times when he scoops me up in the safety of his arms, even from remote, and whatever is going on in the rest of the world falls away into incoherent drivel.

There are moments when I am silently struggling with the meaning of life, or something on a smaller scale, and a note arrives, unprompted, saying he feels lucky to have me in his life, and I know the sincerity drips from his words.

He believes in love, being there, sharing more than words can share, being concerned, insightful, attempting to keep me on the right path; the one which makes sense. Thank you for that. I love you.

Lisa’s tips to get through tomorrow:
1. Put your heart into what you’re doing, or find something you can put your heart into.
2. Think positively about tomorrow; put yesterday in a box and seal it up with duct tape.
3. Call your family
4. Hope for the best thing you can think of to happen. If it doesn’t. make it happen.
5. Love, love, love who is in your life and what you are accomplishing by knowing these people.
