Fog Owns the Morning

From Tiffin for Tea, Lorry for Truck by Reetika Vazirani (from her second book, World Hotel). The line is Fog owns the morning and you can't travel. We've had foggy mornings & evenings the last few days. The computer & GG's editor are still befogged, as well.. GG, though, is in top feline form. Hope to see you later. Please check out the Darfur news, here. (Foggy Barn by Vermonter Paul Moody)

It's Me, I'm Not Home* - Week's End

*The title of a poem from Reetika Vazirani's last book (there might be one more). We used to recite it faster & faster in a race against the second-hand; she wrote it, she usually won. (Photo by wonderful Grant Hutchinson, more of his work here.)

Good weekend...

Happy Birthday, Reetika

RGV & GG's editor shared a fondness for small luxuries such as Chanel lipstick and hoped someday that their fashion tastes could be indulged a bit (OK, a lot!) more than reading Vogue. The notion of internet fashion (especially vintage fashion) videos was entertaining, as were style & fashion blogs. Neither of us had the tech upgrades to view any streaming video in 2003, though we did look at some style & fashion sites. We agreed: not enough time for work, friends, & personal maintenance, let alone much surfing. However, it was an entertaining idea & she encouraged GG's editor to start a blog. That has not happened but will soon. Preparation is ongoing for a petit début–most likely in early September. (Read a poem here.)
