What I don't feel like writing about

I have a list of things to write about, and I just don't feel like writing about them. So I will just tell you what they are. I had the titles written down but nothing under them or only a word or two. Here the titles:

Things That Annoy Me -- I just don't want to go there anymore. Needless to say, there are many fish in the sea of annoyance. What's the point?

Rebelling Against Forms -- I refuse to write on lines specified. Like in Outlook, there are places all ready for you to put phone numbers and such in.  Hey, I like to put information where I like to put it, and where I like to put it is not on specified lines. I just put it all in the comment section, and that's how I like it.

My Willful Mind -- When I was in fourth grade, the teacher, Miss Smith, gave me a great honor. She chose me to go to the public library for her to pick up a certain book that she wanted to read to the class. I don't know how I had the nerve, but I didn't like the book she had booked out and I took out a book I liked better. That did not go over very well.

Later, when I was in college and worked for the foreign student program, the head of the department sent me to Johnson's Bookstore to pick up a certain American history book to give as an award to one of the students. Well, I went to the bookstore. You have to realize that the head of the program was a history professor. The book he had picked out was quite erudite. It was probably a thousand pages of little print and facts. Without calling or asking, I chose another history book that had bigger print and illustrations and was clearly more suitable.  In this case, the teacher saw what I meant and agreed, or he just put a good face on it, yet where did I get the nerve?

If you ever want me to pick up a book for you at either the library or Johnson's Book Store, you probably want to ask someone else.

Senora, you have sent me some of the best books I have ever read (Narnia series, Power V Force, The Little Prince, Heart of a Gopi...) and you play an integral role in the creation of Heavenletters. Who else would I chose to buy a book!!!

Me too. If I sent you to the bookstore for this and you came back with that, well, knowing you, I'd assume you followed spirit and brought me what I was intended to actually have.

Some of the best books I've read were gifted to me. Not books that I had on my list to read. In many cases, books I had never heard of. My dear Russ Michael just sent a wonderful book, 'Mutant Message Down Under'.

Beloved Pam, you are such a booster!

Probably in fourth grade, the teacher had a better choice for a book to read aloud to fourth graders. The book I chose was one I had just read and loved, yet it may well have not been a book that everyone would love.

By the way, I talk about the book you mention in an earlier blog:

Senor One,

You do know I have boxes and boxes of books saved for you to look through when you come here to see which ones we can take with us on the motor home. 99% of these books are books you might want for the spiritual center. Most are great finds and irreplaceable. There are only a few other books that we could say that I am personally attached to. I will ask you to be ruthless in making your decisions.

I think I will write a whole blog on some of these books.

I'll be darned! So you did ... and funny, too, as are the responses. There's always someone(thing) waiting with a pin to burst our balloons.
