no just kidding - I don't need an iPod - my kids have one each - just kidding
no they do have one each - their father bought them one - no - their father apparently had two freebies given to him by a client bla bla bla - you know how it goes
he's a Mac person - I'm a PC person and the iPod thingies won't let them use them on Macs and PCs without realigning them - readjusting them back to factory settings
why am I telling you this??
just jealous
got any iPods spare Didi?
no just kidding
I have auditory dyslexia or some such so can't listen to music and write at the same time
You didn't want to ruin my career now did you Didi?!!
Congratulations Lorna - somebody had to go win - bloody great poems though eh? What a party we had.
hot dang! cool! made all the more honorous ( to dollar a word) by the fine poems this party brought into being (Barbara Jane's "Eve Speaks" was my personal favorite) thanks, all Thanks, Didi, for inviting me in the first place. After Eduardo left the blog I was starting to feel like someone's maiden aunt left-over at the party. Now I can hang-out at your house—and y'all are always welcome at mine. Happy belated birthday, Didi! Cleaning grout on the big day? Grrrl, what's with that! Just kidding—seems like a typical wonderful thing a Cancer wants to do on her birthday: clean her house. My Cancer, last year, wanted to go the dentist. Figure that. Although, he was installing the equivalent of a Lexus in his mouth. Birthdays are otherwise easy to plan for him—he always wants to stay home & I cook. (I love to cook. This half-starved poverty's child has grown up to be a Foodie.) Didi, I have been following your work for a while, long before I discovered blogging via Eduardo. Glad I can join this perpetual bridal shower for the marriage to the Muse. And, with such good poets.
And, an Ipod! Jeepers. You made me a hero to my son for the day. Having a poet for a mother is boring. Ah, but an iPod. . . 'Sides, I'm a Mac-fanatic. (I'm trying to get the screen-name MACaDEE). Since Oz & the US festival many years back that fortold the rise of the Creative Class due to the combination of affordable digital technology, education, equal opportunity & respect for what everyone brings to the table—and MUSE-IC to weave it all together into a hamaca for the world. I love all things mac, just got a souped-up coup from the U, and all I was missing was a pod.
cool things from Eve
btw, I actually got well into a "Culo de Betti" poem (I was hoping for a lyrical gang poem, the last line was to fall on "the cool/ low de Betti" but was still to have plenty of nalga) but then my father died & I never finished the poem—glad I could make this lifeline (I'm starting to think of these dates as "lifelines" as opposed to "deadlines" as it seems to help against my typical pathological procrastination)
cheers & cheeps from La Bird aka Lorna Dee ("Lorna Doone") (really) (or, "How to Get a Geeky Gang Girl")

For the ipod thingy, you can just address it to me directly & he promises not to throw it out (or keep it!). Years of cheers to all, in peace.
