Clematis

I am still chuckling over the idea of moving into a teepee. It's something Homer Simpson would do. Sometimes a great boyfriend does not make a good husband and a great girlfriend is not a good wife. But we fall in love for the wrong reasons sometimes. I have a way of falling for women who are already taken so it leads to frustration and heartache. I have thought much about love and wrote a poem about it. The friends I know are dominated by their wives, though they won't admit it--so obvious their wives dictate what part of the house they use, or where they can go and with whom. I am glad I don't have that! I'm a free agent.

The weather is gloomy here a lot and it dampens my spirits. I read that one of the most common questions at the grand canyon is "who dug this?" LOL

Odd that you named your cat Lena since Lena Horne had such light skin--I thought she was white.

Is your photo recent? I am too private to put one up, not even on facebook.

I think that I will drop out of this forum.

The photo is from about two years ago, and it is the picture from our PetPartners ID card. Lena Horne was very light, but was considered to be black, even though she was partly of european descent and also partly native american. Anyway it was more difficult for her to get work, and an inconvenience, because since she was black she might not be able to eat at the same restaurant or stay at the same hotel as the others working on a movie or a music tour. 

Lena the cat, is actually not all black either. Her fur is a mousy grey with black on the ends, but she sure looks black!
