Well, having lived in Germany for 15 months, I have to say that I was
disappointed by the Lindt chocolate that I had there, though I probably
didn't have any Lindor balls.  But Belgian chocolate is *really*
scrummy!  And there was a Swiss chocolate that was *excellent* and only
cost DM2,- per 200g (groan - U.S. non-metric units follow), which is
about US$1.30 for about half a pound of mouth-watering,
surely-fattening-but-utterly-irrestible chocolate.  Yum.
[But in France I hope to get *fresh* Belgian chocolate, which has to be
 eaten within a week while it is fresh.  As if I needed an excuse .....]

Hey, I didn't say a "topless" bronze bust.  After all, it must be
difficult to make out all those little details in bronze :-) .  No, I
meant dressed in a Victorian top with cloth up to the neck.  Or even
garbed in the headdress of a Moslem woman.

	Anyway, do witches still wear up-to-the-neck costumes as
regulation now, or do they follow the fashion trend set by Elvira ...

walk by her desk and ask if they are from her boyfriend...  When she
says 'No', or 'I don't know', then ask if he is the type that would do

Our last 2 have been just the opposite; very independent. Tux (RIP) was
very loveable, but he didn't like sittin' where he didn't want to. Spock
is the same way. (Do I smell THAT bad?) Spock *will* crawl up at our
feet and go to sleep, but he hates when you set him there. He hates
bein' held, except for when I turn on the porch light and attract buggies.
Then he's content to for me to hold him while he bats at them.

Ok.  Let's see.  Never been very romantic with a stranger.  Let's say we have
a relationship.  Makes the setting easier.  You're hard at work at your desk.
Outside your window the afternoon sky is so blue it almost hurts your eyes.
You remember how sweet the air tasted as you walked back from a lonely lunch.
If there was only an excuse to check out early and enjoy it.  Your thoughts
drift back to simpler times when being together was all we had ...  A knock
at your office door brings you grudgingly back to reality.  With a sigh you
invite the intruder in.  The door opens and a huge bouquet of Fire & Ice
proceeds a tall, well built man into the room.  His jet black hair, frosted
now at the temples, is just as thick & wavy as it was in High School.  Long
lashes, full red lips, wide shoulders, strong arms, piercing brown eyes.   
You can feel the corners of your mouth go up in that special smile reserved
only for him ...

                         ---+=== Kimmy ===+---

... That smile.  Nothin' like it in the world.  Makes me feel like I do some-
times when I watch a baby sleeping or like the thrill I get at the stadium
on a perfect fall afternoon.  It's never the same twice but it's always
wonderful.  As she is.  That why I gave her the flowers.  She always smiles
for flowers ...

*******************************************************************************
Ok girl it's all yours.  I bet you wonder why I not at work and what the 
flowers are for and what I've got up my sleeve ...
