Get a life

Front-load energy
saving washer. Fun to watch
clothes spinning around.

Triage

When we run out of
batteries, we sacrifice
the TV remote.

Couch potatoes

Too tired to head to
our beds, my daughter and I
tag team sofa sleep.

Thanksgiving bird = bird giving thanks

Fourteen wild turkeys
on my back deck raid the grape
vines looking for fruit.

Day after election day

I saw the losing
candidate cross
the empty parking lot.

Covetous

I’m soooooo jealous of
the brilliance of this blog name:
Blather. Wince. Repeat.

Green home

Chuck tests our house for
energy efficiency.
We’re tight as a drum.

Artistic insight

Vision isn’t so
much a function of seeing
as it is feeling.

Creative class

with props to selfinterestandsympathy for this one 

I will often cite
Richard Florida’s ideas.
People stare blankly.

November

Thanksgiving creeps up
fast, like a turkey farmer
wielding a sharp axe.
