"Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself , I am large, I contain multitudes."  ~ Walt Whitman

  1. I am allergic to raisins.
  2. I am not allergic to grapes.
  3. Raisins are made from grapes, are they not?
  4. I hate boxing and think it's barbaric.
  5. If I leave a hockey game without seeing blood on the ice, I feel cheated.
  6. I don't believe in astrology.
  7. I feel a wee bit superior because I am a Scorpio, the sex symbol of the zodiac!
  8. I am proud to have been born in the Year of the Tiger.
  9. I feel sorry for all the Rats and Goats.
  10. I am convinced that one reason for my happy life is that I live with a Horse and a Dog, which are both compatible with Tigers.

  20. When I was a small child, I talked constantly about the friends I had when I was a bunny, before I was a child.
  21. A friend-of-a-friend who claims to be psychic showed me a mark on my palm that she says indicates I was a citizen of the lost city of Atlantis.

Loved this! So you are wrong. I read his out loud to Allie and we laughed out loud.

Words strung together in a way to move me to humor, or Homer; either way, it's all good. For what it is worth, I believe in the mark on your palm, matching your daughters and I believe that you were once a bunny, which rules out #24. I don't believe #19 because I think it's some vague reference to your comfy panties. And finally, I stomp and spit on number twenty six like a Russian Czar because I can and because my days are probably numbered less than twenty six. Love you.

I have no idea what that means, what I wrote up there in the last sentence. I'm not suicidal, only mildly homicidal. I hope it's not some freaky omen where I was somehow channeling with the universe and it was telling me my days are numbered. That is scary. Sorry to alarm you. I'm not planning to go anywhere.
