*Tired Peg*

[CaliforniaPeggy]

As of about five minutes ago... Don't know why I'm tired; it's been a quiet day for the most part...

But there you are...

[kentauros]

1. You don't look so tarr'd thar

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. My dear kentauros...

Well, if I hadn't smiled, then I'd have looked tarr'd!

I look just hideous if I don't smile even a little bit...

[kentauros]

19. I only look overly serious if I don't smile...

all that Conquistador-style facial hair :P

It's getting that time of night to be tarr'd all over, tho...

[puerco-bellies]

2. Hi C-P

Looking good, even though tired.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear puerco-bellies...

Aw, thank you, sweetie...

:hug:

5. I cannot help but be intrigued ...

... by what lies, barely hidden, behind that smile.

A new poem in-the-making inside your head; a photograph envisioned in your mind's eye, waiting to be taken, captured by surprise ... or something else perhaps; too enticingly bold to escape notice, but too silently heartfelt to be shared.

Hmmmm ..................

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. My dear Nance...

Actually, not much is stirring behind my smile...

I really am too tired and also not inspired to be writing much of anything right now...

I'm feeling a bit lonely perhaps...

Hence, this pic thread...

I always appreciate your presence, and your astute comments...

:hug:

12. If you really wanted to BE alone ...

... you wouldn't have come here - where your fans are legion, and your admirers gather nightly to sing your praises - or sing you to sleep, as is your desire, Dear Lady.

"But she sleeps, my friends, yet peacefully
In dreams sweet and sublime
Of that Gallant Knight whose soul touched hers
That Once Upon a Time."

Good night, my friend ...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Good night, my dear Nance...

Thank you for those lyrics; they are perfect...

Sweetest of dreams... :hug:

6. Dear Peggy I've never seen a picture of you before!

Such beauty such character such intelligence! I want to meet you next time I visit SoCal,would that be OK?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. My dear Tom Kitten!

You haven't?

Well, this is far from my best pic ever, but this is how I'm looking right now...

I normally have some lipstick on, but when I'm at home as I am now, I leave it off...

Thank you for your comments, sweetie...

I'd love to meet you too, the next time you're here!

:hi:

[Tom Kitten]

13. what area do you live?

My sister lives in Claremont but teaches in Fullerton, we lived there until I was 12 and I've visited several times since then. I always go to the LA County Museum of Art and the LaBrea Tar Pits every time I visit, might that be halfway in case you live north?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. Manhattan Beach, out by LAX!

My town is on the Santa Monica Bay...

We routinely visit the LaBrea Tar Pits and the George Page Museum next door....

The museum is great too...

[Tom Kitten]

21. Have you been to the museum lately?

In the Modern Art section there was this little room you went into and there was this incredible installation that looked like an old garage, with a car in the middle, but everything didn't really have an immediate function but seemed to be there just for you wonder "what does this mean" and there was a radio playing static...do you know where I'm talking about? Last time I went and it was closed...I just remember it was a great space and a great place to meet somebody...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. No, we haven't been recently...

There've been lots of changes down there.

7. You're probably tired because of your huge brain always working.

:hug: :loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. My dear elshiva...

Actually, today I haven't been doing anything very intellectual or difficult...

Just the normal round of cooking and laundry and posting...

:hug:

[elshiva]

14. "...and posting"

AH HA! You have been doing a lot good thinking, Ms. Modesty.

:hug:

[snailly]

11. Hi Peggy!

Haven't talked to you in some time. I hope you and your husband are doing well. I don't post at all much but I've been missing your daily posts. Where have you gone?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. My dear snailly!

I didn't know you've been missing me...

I'm posting in some of the political forums these days, so I'm not in the Lounge as much as I used to be...

We are very well, and I thank you!

I really am addicted to DU, but some days I try to do other things, you know?

Thanks for stopping by, sweetie... :hug:

[IndianaJones]

15. Are you anywhere close to those fires? nt.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. My dear IndianaJones!

Nope...

They're up the coast by Santa Barbara...

There's no danger here at all...

[Heidi]

23. Your photo is making me sleeeeeeeeeeepy, verrrrrry sleeeeeeeeeepy.

Nah, not really. It's 8:30 a.m. and I haven't had enough caffeine yet. :)

I think you look fine, Peggy. :hi:

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. I was going to say!

My dear Heidi...how lovely to have you among us again...

Morning in Switzerland...time for coffee!

Thanks, sweetie...

:hug:

[Heidi]

25. And it's the best coffee EVAH!

I splurged a couple of weeks ago and bought a Nespresso espresso machine. :bounce:
