stopping

I've been thinking about stopping smoking on Friday.
Just thinking about it.
I don't want to say it out loud, for fear that I may actually have to go through with it.

It's just getting damn inconvenient to smoke in this new domain now that it is getting cold.

we all look alike

I've been noticing the faces of the old people here.
I see so many that look like others that I have met throughout my life.
I've come to the conclusion, that when people get old, they all look alike.

settling in

Here I am all moved. That would be cyber(blog)wise and physically. The late summer brought with it another major move for the Mr. and me. I'm not so sure I am going to adjust to this place as the new neighbors are kinda creepy - like this tarantula that was on the house where the brick meets the front door.

Is it a tarantula? Hell, I don't know - but it was big enough to be one and when the Mr. sprayed it, it charged us. However, the next photo ...

well, this next photo is the last one that spider will ever pose for.

Then, about a week later, I spotted this black widow sunning itself in its haphazard web. Again, right outside the front door. And like the other 8-legged intruder, it was this spider's last photo shoot.

I hate spiders.

But this is where I now call home.

For how long?

Who knows.
