rafa or me?
karlo (quintaclasse) brought this point up already before in relation to the inordinate attention i seemed to be showering on the world #1 men's tennis player. my son brought home the point emphatically today. 

it ain't over til the fat lady moans
and boy am i moaning. and yes, fat!

the last place..
the culprit who had been trying to be helpful the night before in keeping the memory stick in its proper computer bag smiled, coming near me to take the stick from my trembling fingers. he walked to our laptop and pointed to the ports as if to say, "may i put it in, please?"
oh kimi. i knew you could only put it in its proper place.
end result? a very dust-free apartment with all its nooks and crannies vacuumed with a vengeance. not bad for this asthmatic, eh?

PO
six friggin' hours of work, saved in the tiniest USB stick that the younger son just happened to play with and is now just... friggin' missin'. to make matters worse, when you ask kimi, "please tell us where you put mama's red memory stick", he babbles and smiles back, thinking it's all a game.
gardemit!!!

blogging aperitifs
as far as meme rules go, you need to select a sample out of a pool of people you wish you could include, but that's probably the incentive to think up other memes and tags to have fun in cyberspace.
durgajane, i owe you a meme and i have it in my drafts. to celebrate your recent independence day, i resolve to finally publish that meme!
for now, this is a post shout-out to the following i tagged (yes, meming time!) in my svelte rogue blog:
give it a shot, guys that is, click on the only link in this post). how can you resist laminated cyber plastic?
for those of you who want to spread the love, comment in this space and i'll bend the rules to get you approved pronto! this is one credit line that won't give you the red tape run-around.
