Okay, since Blogger ate my last post (and did not spit it back out when I returned), I am going to try again. But some parts of it are lost forever! Such a loss...
I am having a mighty good time in Detroit. Maria's new apartment is cozy, pretty, and comfy. We have talked and talked. We've eaten middle eastern food, and listened to music. We had an encounter with a crazed video store clerk. We went to a huge mall to visit the Sanrio outlet store. We watched the movie Finding Forrester, which I liked very much. Despite my misgivings based on the trailer, the movie didn't push my schmaltz buttons the way Dead Poets' Society always has. I thought this one was actually kind of elegant. However, the use of the Queer as Folk music was a very strange choice.
Last night I dragged Maria out to Value City, the largest Value City I had ever been to (two floors!). I hadn't been to a Value City since I was last at Katynka's in the late summer last year for the VC tent sale. If you can believe this, yesterday was Maria's first trip to Value City! Needless to say, we found some excellent bargains. It was such a success that Maria woke up this morning and told me we need to go to the other Value City today. I've created a monster! (A Value City shopping monster!) But surely an appreciation for VC is a gift that keeps on giving?
(We have done a lot in only a day an a half!)
Earlier this week, I took my counter/tracker off Raspberry World. I had been tracking my hits and referrers for quite awhile, but I found I was getting some strange search requests. Now people may still come to my page by searching for "Nude Celeste," but I won't know about it. Ignorance is bliss! I was also getting a little too hung up on who was coming, and when. Mostly I just thought I'd feel less pressure without it. And so far, that's been the case.
What this means is, if you are visiting Raspberry World, I don't know it (assuming I could ever tell it was you by my logs -- which is a big assumption). So you should write me and say hello. I would love to hear from you.
