Worldly Encounters
What would I share with a casually met alien? The same stuff I’d share with anyone. Stuff that makes me smile, tap my toes, sing along.
Life is complex and uncertain. Eat dessert first.
These are favorites. Take them seriously at your own risk!
Life is messy and we are messy creatures. No easy explanations, so let’s just try to make the best of it.
Have a little taste on me.
Jimmy Cagney had some skills! Great choices. Cabaret is the only one of these movies I can get my kids to watch. Classics.

I gave up on getting my kids or grandkid to watch anything older than “made in 1990s.” We just enjoy them together and with friends.

I believe I have mentioned that once upon a time I used to dance to work in the rain. Nobody seemed to notice.

We replay that scene at least 3 or 4 times every time we watch the “Yankee Doodle Dandy”.

I love the way you interpreted the daily prompt. The videos are appropriate, and funny. (I mean really, dancing down the stairs is fun). I’m glad I found your blog. Feel free to comment and check out mine as well! Keep writing!

I’m glad you found me too. That tap dance down the white house stairs is famous … iconic. And it’s a favorite with my husband and I. I’ll check you out when I get home later in the week.

I served my time in academia. I deserve something happier. Life has plenty of challenges and dark sides. I know they are there, but I choose to not dwell in them.
