I smoked a Dominican cigar a couple of weeks ago. Smoked the whole thing, right down to the end. It made me feel weird. Like I was nauseous and broke into a cold sweat. That and the fact you taste it for a day after affirms my commitment to smoke only two a year, if that.
I feel as though I am king of the double entendre. Like if there is a joke to be made about the second meaning of something, my brain automatically leaps there and I'll chuckle to myself.
I've been a bit on edge the last few days and I can really pinpoint why. Not angry or mean just touchy. I try to be fairly happy go lucky but this week....I think I have some deeper things to work through.
It smells like fire outside. Like a wood burning fire. I love it when something I experience helps me relive a memory. The other day a friend of mine pulled out a roll of Certs. You remember... the little mints with "retsin" to help freshen breath. Well my Uncle Jim used to bring us rolls of those every time he visited. I don't even know where you get them these days. Anyone else got a story like that? Something so small yet so powerfully entrenched in your memory?
I think I lost a gift from my Mom today. We had purchased the first three Harry Potter books in a 3-pack and got home and forgot about them. Well later in the day we found a six pack at another store. So we decided to take the other pack back the next day to get the money back. Come to find out we couldn't locate the books. Best as we can recollect they never actually made it inside the car. I believe in strapping my daughter in the car I forgot them on the roof and drove away. Thank God it wasn't the other way around. Emma would be pissed. Still it's just another example of my carelessness either getting me hurt or costing me money. If I could trade for someone else's life for just a few days it would be a real relief.
The nights are getting cooler here. I thoroughly enjoy fall and it can't get here quick enough for my tastes. Football, sweatshirts and cool breezes. Ahhhh.
Positives: getting 6 Harry books, smoked meats, two months til the cruise
Negatives: losing 3 Harry books, overly fatty meats, two months til the cruise
