Ma's Things

The witches fly
Across the sky,
The owls go, "Who? Who? Who?"
The black cats yowl
And green ghosts howl,
"Scary Halloween to you!"


(Nina Willis Walter)

I like BMW days, it's just nice to hear the sound of raindrops on your window while you are all cuddle up in bed. I like it too when I have to work, nice relaxing background sound, a bit of thunder and that would make it perfect

In the land of the fatty fried food, where twinkies and cookies are stuck with a stick, dipped in batter and fried, (you can even get some fried ice cream!) the latest crazy thing in the US is something called fried coke. Fried coke is made of nuggets of some kind which are dipped into Coca-Cola syrup, then dunked in hot grease, and topped with more Coke syrup. Yum yum.. Now I'm not sure I would like that but still Id want to give it a go

So what's next? Fried pepsi?

To have a feeling of achievement, set smaller tasks.. that's what it is all about right?

Wi Fi glasses, that's the new invention of a group of researchers at MIT's Media Lab in Boston.
The idea is to give long-distance lovers the chance to recreate the intimacy of sharing a drink. Thanks to coloured LEDs, when one picks up his glass, his partner's will glow.

I have to say, I'm a big fan of all these little things, my things.. glowing stars, doorbell, magic hot water bottle, etcher sketcher, twinkling lights - god I miss my lights..- etc. so yes I would probably be delighted to get one of these.
Obviously that might lead to some sort of over reaction from time to time if the long-distance partner doesn't drink back what is he doing its not blinking.. ITS NOT BLINKING!! he didnt drink today, is he using another cup?! Did he forget about our little code.. one blinking he misses me, two blinkings he really misses me!!
And beware long-distance partner, don't even try to fool me, because the cup knows it all. So don't just pick it up occasionally to make me happy because I was "drop drinking" you again, the glass can make the difference between picking up and drinking, the LED will glow brighter when the lips touch the glass.
Now that can make some fun games :D well at least for the first few days..

Ah well, I think I just love lights, that is why I have a fascination for people playing on fruit machines, and probably also why I love Christmas so much

That's the fear of the number 13, apparently the most searched phobia.
It may be Friday 13th today but still try to have a nice day

England seems to be loving Christmas as much as I do, it's only the beginning of October and advent calendars, Christmas cards, mince pies etc can already be found in Tesco..
