Sometimes intelligible ramblings from a former teacher, publisher, aerospace worker, barmaid, and waitress

Hunka Hunka Love
I love elephants and populate my small space with a herd of them: elaborate wood carvings, cheesy plastic, gorgeous brass twins, a tiny herd of carved marble, a green plush one given to my granddaughter when she was an infant. Outside, waiting to take her place in my future front yard, a metal live-sized baby elephant.
In my life I've waited tables, raised sons, taught school, published books, and railed at politicians. I'm building a house, next to my son, where I can spend time with my granddaughter. I read, write, and dream about being immortal.

I DID NOT know you were into elephants, did I? I just passed up a metal watering can shaped like an elephant at the flea. You would have LOVED it!
Maybe I should start a website where people post their obsessions (well maybe not all of them).
