Before the alloted internet use time is up...

I will note that a particular radio station in Chicago--I think it is 89.5--can't make up its mind whether its Southeast Asian hindi love songs or screaming white guy guitar music. This makes for an amusing situation when I am stopping at stoplights and trying to tune into the one I prefer (guess which one it is!)

BTW there is a cool woman whose name I can't remember...she runs a prison in Delhi, India and is feature in Adventure Divas videos and book...she reformed it by making everyone--prisoners, guards, everyone--practice meditation. They all R-E-S-P-E-C-T her. She has a great smile.

Road Trip Tommorrow!

Maybe I'll visit Little House on the Prairie on my way back from visiting my sister in College Station, Texas in a few days. Look, this is what happens when girls(??I guess, mostly??) who loved those books grow up and have their own kids. All little Lauras! Shouldn't the boys be called little Almanzos, or something?

all my ex's live in Texas
and Texas is where I want to be
but all my ex's live in Texas
that is why I reside in Tennessee


--George Strait

Don't own that song. Maybe I'll see if the library has a CD version for the trip...
