If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music. ~Gustav Mahler
My Blogs
The Cast
Chorus: Yours Truly, the author of this blog.
WH: WonderHubby, the man of my dreams, my best friend and co-conspirator. A professional choral conductor. He got me hooked on golf.
Baby Bird: Our totally nifty baby girl.
Mama Cat: A jet-black, three year-old Bombay Siamese beastie who takes up almost all of my side of the bed, and demonstrates intense neediness frequently. Likes to have her ears scratched.
Baby Cat: Her daughter, a more traditional Siamese-coloured cat, now almost two years old. Purrs like a locomotive, sheds all over everything, takes up the rest of my side of the bed.
Maternal Unit: My mum, an Anglican priest here in Prairie City. Smart, funny and brave.
Eldest Brother: My biggest brother, an archaeologist, and an all-around nifty fellow. Taught me all about sports.
Middle Brother: Also my elder, but by not quite as much as EB. He works for our provincial government, doing neat things with disaster preparedness planning. He beat up the boys who were mean to me in elementary school.
Paternal Unit: My dad, who is a professional storyteller in another province far away.
And of course, there are others...

What a beautiful sculpture -- where did you find it?
On occasion, when I'm looking for pictures to go with posts, I just go to Google and type in a word, and then click on Images, and see what pictures come up that are associated with that word. Yesterday, I was thinking about a post about being very tired, and so I looked for images of "Weary," and this is what I found. And once I'd posted it, that seemed to be enough of a blog.
Sheesh. Who knew that I sat in that position long enough for someone to sculpt me? *grin*
