Called myself on the telephone
Just to see if I was home.
Made a date for half past eight,
Better hurry or I'll be late!

Took myself to the picture show
Sat myself in the very last row
Wrapped my arms around my waist
Got so fresh I slapped my face!

Bought some roses at the store.
Told myself I wanted more
Gee, I miss me all the time.
Wonder if I'm doing fine.
Maybe I'll stop by to see
If I have a chance with me.

It's almost time for Cinderella to come home from the fancy ball. I was just milling around and shooting the breeze with myself.
No Easter Egg Hunt in Italy and no dumb bunny. I just read all about it. We don't really have one, either.

This makes me think of 'cracker barrel' joints. Have you ever been to one of those. It's a cornbread and fried chicken kind of place. We don't have one for 100's of miles but this poem makes me think of the rocking chairs out on the front porch. I don't know if it's Pasqua but I can't shake it off. I wish I was at your house. I'd just lay down on the floor and roll around. Cold marble floors might straighten me back UP. Don't ask me why. I just want to howl like a dog. I would feel better if we could go for a walk at your park. Paw used to say, why so melancholy..with heads like melons and faces like collies.

Oh hey--what are you doing for Easter? Are you going to be cooking up a storm for your folkaronies?

I am PLANNING THE MENU. All this cooking makes me anxious. The squirrels and family have been here to eat for 3 days straight. Their apartment across the landing is being ripped up big time. The gophers are going at it and digging, digging. Making holes everywhere. I saved everything I could. My spare room is piled to the sky and there's stuff in my hallway. Sigh. and I'm having Easter dinner in the midst of it all.

My son decided he can't go to the States because of the work on their apartment, so I'm going alone in May. Mom's birthday is May 15th, so I'll be there for that and stay around 3 weeks. I'll be looking for tickets this week. There's no internet on the farm so I'll be AWOL while I'm there. No MFP. Give it all a rest.

Time for bed.

I can just see it all happening but it sounds like whopping boatloads of fun. Yes, company is coming and I'll be roasting the big chick with the uzhe tiddlywinks, decorations and ornaments. I think you'll have a good time with the folks. I see you cleaning UP a storm, whipping everything into shape. You'll leave it sparkling, I know you will. So you've got one room filled to the rafters, bulging at the seams, full to the gunwales. There goes the neighborhood.

All this family stuff brings a tear to my eye but I'm not crying for us. Nuh huh, I'm crying for the world. All is not well.

Now don't you worry. I'm not hopping on a plane and coming to visit you. Especially since everything is in such a big mess. We'll meet one day. Even if we have to cross the great divide to get it done. Until then, we'll linger long on our memories. Swill a limoncello for me.
