lyrical leanings

when kylie was proclaiming her newfound love for matt good she forgot to mention that she will periodically (and often in enclosed spaces) suddenly roar
"K-I-C-K-A-S-S .... that's the way we spell success!"

the ubiquitous exposure to sharp lyrics is affecting me as well; i caught myself walking through emerg yesterday singing
"when you blow out like a dead star, it reminds me how uniform your beautiful is..."

i wanted to link to an mp3 for "this new leaf" by dale nikkel the lyrics to which kylie posted the other day. it is a beautiful song but dale hasnt put that particular one up on the web. after repurchasing "still learning tricks" and listening to it multiple times (a new theme on our blog) b/c it was the only cd we brought on the trip to go buy the 4runner, i was repeatedly ;-) struck by the thought that dale's themes and experiences overlap considerably with the lives and concerns of most of my peers.

a song from this album that dale has put on his website is postcards from home one of his more upbeat numbers precisely about shared experiences. how many have you shared? i count eight.

You guys don't need to post pictures. Your delightfull and colourful words are just enough! How does this book club work that katherine is organizing. I had a quick look on her blogsite and didn't see anything

Thanks Kylie. I left a comment on Katherine's blog. Sounds like a fun idea.

Hi Kylie, (and Michaelia and Joanna)
I just posted this idea on my comments but thought I'd double post. As a forum for our lazy-wives club, perhaps we could start a group blog that we each can post to. I figure its a medium we already know and love and perhaps we could put our ideas up there.

Discuss.

I'm intrigued. a little intimidated by the thought of posting to 2 blogs, what being with my busy schedule and all...but we should give it a try. katherine - do you need a lot of "special materials" for screen printing? do you have instructions somewhere or is it all pure intuition?? perhaps this could be an initial posting for the lazy wives ;)

I love it! If we are all posting we wouldn't have to feel too much pressure to post all the time and we could post recipes and good books to read. We would have to make a disclaimer saying that if you will be jealous you are not allowed to read our blog. :) I recently met a lady whose husband had just retired and I asked her if she had worked and she said with a wonderful British accent that she never worked she was just a lady of leisure. mmmm I think you should start one Katherine and then give us the password and off we go! Kylie
