When I make return visits to other blogs I don't know what to do... and after having had a good gawk , I am humbled, and quietly sneak away in shame.
I am sorry.
I may learn before I die. I may die before I learn.
It could go either way.
The Good God only knows.
Jane, Carolyn and Kate (and anyone else who visits my blog) : what can I say but the following (which I owe to my extensive, catholic and dedicated reading of trashy detective fiction) :
Truly, Madly, Deeply.....
(the never-ending apology - Failures for the use of)
I have failed you!
A thousand million pardons!
May the vultures peck out my eyes!
May the desert jackal devour my flesh
And the sun bleach my bones to dust!
May a desert lion maul me!
May a herd of camels graze in my underpants!
May ten scorpions crawl into all of my cavities
And repeatedly sting me!
May diseases wrack my body
May I break out in boils
And defy science with my illnesses
May I suffer elternal flatulence
That can only be measured on the Richter Scale!
