However, my memory...it slides! Today is the first Tuesday in November!!! Lol, and a lot of you are now probably wondering what that has to do with anything, right? :-) The first Tuesday in November is Melbourne Cup day! The Melbourne Cup is the biggest horse race in Australia. It's "the day a nation stands still"...or something like that!! It's annoying, is what it is! When I was penpalling it just meant an extra day without a mail delivery. When I was a bored housewife it meant the race was aired on TV instead of daytime soaps!!! It was a disruptive inconvenience!!! :-( Today it means the library and council buildings are closed and I can't get on a proper computer!! Blast! So...here I sit outside the town hall...on my phone...in semi shade...smiling at strangers passing by....exchanging nicities with people I know...listening to construction to the left and the sound of passing traffic to the right...hoping the dog passing by doesn't decide to stop and scare me into an anxiety attack ― yeah, I have an unreasonable fear, so what! ;-)...and I'm waiting for the Post Office to open. :-) What do you do when you're bored...and waiting? This is what I do! :-) I write! :-) Happy Melbourne Cup Day, Dearest Reader! :-)) Hugs ~ Jeanne.Jeanne Francis (aka - Toni)http://www.blogger.com/profile/05429904911629395681noreply@blogger.comBlogger3125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631111603916085913.post-80842549086641499852011-10-31T22:09:02.491-07:002011-10-31T22:09:02.491-07:00Agreed Navjot, and when I was done observing I wou...Agreed Navjot, and when I was done observing I would then WRITE about them!! ;-)Jeanne Francis (aka - Toni)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05429904911629395681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631111603916085913.post-25905028941528171362011-10-31T22:05:29.709-07:002011-10-31T22:05:29.709-07:00Jeanne you are so funny :P well i was in a situat...Jeanne you are so funny :P well i was in a situation where i had to wait for some place to open up, i would start observing the people around me.. and u can see all sorts of people in just a few minutes..
