ragtags studio central: sarah's random this & that

random means "having no definite aim or purpose," (1655), taken from "at random" (1565), "at great speed" (thus, "carelessly, haphazardly"). In 1980s college student slang, it somehow, and sadly, acquired a distinct sense of "inferior, undesirable." (Online Etymology Dictionary, Douglas Harper) Well, okay, fine, Mr. Online Etymology Dictionary person, but THIS is the 21st Century. It's a whole new ball of wax.

look beside my bed

Check out the sidebar section "Look beside my bed - you'll find" - there's a whole new stack of books luring me to the bedroom early of late. Really, the job at which I would most excel (y'all do realize I am seeking gainful {read, mortgage paying} employment, qué no?) involves books - I could read to anyone, having excellent read aloud skills. I can compose a pithy review, and while I'm at it, write a book or two of my own...

Ya mean besides In This House and In This Garden? Yeah - I know a novel would be fun, or maybe a memoir!!!

wowsers - that's a lot of books! I used to have piles of books like that next to my bed... now it's just an overflowing small bookshelf.

Haven't checked in here for a while. Sorry to read about your shoulder injury. :( Hope you're feeling better.
