I haven't even at least posted my Post Secret experiences for the past couple of weeks. I think the last time I composed a blog the new secrets hadn't come out. I have copied down my visitor number for them, but don't think I'll bother including them here. What I am including is this secret that made me laugh and not because I've never lost a shoe. LOL. No, it just reminded me of a former colleague who came to work one afternoon (no less) with two different shoes on. One was a boot and one was a shoe; one had a heel and the other one didn't; one was black and the other one was brown. I'm not joking, and while I'm not always the most observant person, I sure noticed this! Why didn't she? The only thing she noticed was that she was walking funny. Doh! I find it difficult to believe she didn't get any strange looks before she got to work, and, who knows, maybe some comments. Oh well, at least she showed up. Anyway most women have more than one pair of shoes, so I find the excuse of not finding the mate a pretty lame excuse. At the same time, there'll probably be lamer ones. Anyway, I was visitor 246,909,315 - the third odd number in a row.Luckily, my classes are finishing soon and, so far, I don't have anything lined up for July. This is not to say that I don't have any unexpected work, because I do. One of the neighbours, who's also the president of the building and never satisfied with anyone's work or efforts and who can't find an administrator who lives up to her standards, has her foot in a cast up to her knee and will have the cast on for the next 15-20 days. Between her next-door neighbour and myself, we're doing her shopping for her, which I don't mind. I know I've been in the situation of having to rely on others. She knows not to complain about what I buy either. I haven't been up to see her today. I should think her son and family would come round to see if she needs anything. If she needs anything from me, she has a telephone. On the funny side, she's suggested that we (she and I) go look for a simple mobile phone that she can use. If you don't know the story about the phone she blocked and almost threw across the room, let me say the name of the phone was 'Simply', which is meant for people who know nothing of the new technology. I suggested she discuss this with her son. I don't want to hear more fussing than is necessary.
On the subject of weather, we've had one beautiful week with being able to sleep at night except when there's something going on at the bullring. There was a concert there on Friday night with very, very few young fans I would imagine. I do know that the music wasn't as loud as it is when there's a rock group there. As a matter of fact, my dog wasn't bothered at all when we went out.
It's been a sad week. In a way, I feel bad for Farah Fawsett's family because Michael Jackson's death has so shocked and become the most talked about and written about recent event. Then again, perhaps this is what Farah's family would prefer. Hope that they both find peace at last.
Have a good week all.
