The Essential 'Shot

"These are the contents of my head"

There's the way things are...

Wednesday, July 21, 2010

...and there's the way we want things to be.



In theory, I think I'd rather be a teatotaler (teatotaller?). Of course, IN THEORY I'd rather not smoke cigarettes and I'd rather weigh about 3.5 stone less than I do...in theory.




In practice, I have the will-power of an unsupervised three year old in a room full of candy.


   

5 animadversions:

I, Like The View said...

ok, so this stone business - two of the children have told me that they are not allowed to have luggage weighing more than 12 kilos

erm, say what?!

(I only have scales for cooking, you see)

love the last image!

I kind of enjoy the mystery of what little tidbit of my virtual-scribblings will spark a thought in others.

Will it be the alcohol, will it be the candy, nope, it was the stones.

Join you in the candy store (as long as there's crisps - potato chips to you : )

I'd like not to be a teatotaller. Which is fine because I am. (coffee, wine, ginger and lemongrass, guiness, woud have to invent a whole new life to do without those)
In theory, I agree. Life might be cheaper and better without cigarettes. (in practice, it cost me a lot in wine and coffee and didn't seem to feel healthier but that's just being realistic - there are no magic pills for happiness)
Candy, stones. Yeah. I could really do without those.
'Shot, you'll find what makes you content and then you'll find out how to achieve it. And I bet it'll have something to do with music.
