Cape Town 'n Quotes!
In view of the fact that there isn’t too much happening down here I am scraping the bottom of the blogging material barrel. You see, this is what happens when the typing goblin comes to visit, he leaves with my brain and my inspiration.
Cape Town
This situation will fortunately be remedied by about Tuesday next week. Yours truly intends to infiltrate the new Cayennetology Cult that is currently making an appearance down in the southern most tip of our country. Yes, faithful readers, I will be submitting a full report on the activities of the nefarious leader and his doings. Because the people must know and possibly be warned!
However, that is only next week. Until then, the pickings will be meagre.
Quotes
BigRic passed on some sage advice via a comment on The Katt Box while back. I paraphrase here: "Stick to the horror genre when it comes to reading material and then you won’t think so much." BigRic, I read a soft horror once (it’s like soft porn I suppose) and I couldn’t sleep for about a week. I just can’t do it because I love my sleep too much. So, sorry, I’m still on the "makes you think, doesn’t it" genre.
I offer up two quotes from books that got the ol’ brain cogs turning.
From The Shape of Snakes by Minette Walters:
"I think real loneliness is to be abandoned inside a relationship... to find yourself questioning your worth all the time."
Makes you think, doesn’t it? And how many of us have been there before or are there now?
From A Traitor to Memory by Elizabeth George:
"He felt a stirring for her, then, that mixture of lust and love that always left him at once both weak and resolute, determined to be her master and at the same time completely within her power."
*swoon* Does this ever occur to men in real life?
Just hang on, I am checking the bottom of the barrel quickly just to make sure...
Nope, it’s empty!

Nefarious? Nefarious?Bloody Hell! What happened to "Infamous"? Whay doesn't anyone read the sodding promotional literature?
I think the Walter's quote is brilliant. It took my breath away. I will hold off commenting on the second quote for now.
My favourite book quote at the moment is,
"One day, when he was naughty, Mr Bunnsy looked over the hedge into Farmer Fred's field and it was full of fresh green lettuces. Mr Bunnsy, however, was not full of lettuces. This did not seem fair."
No it did not make me think. I just like it because it is whimsical and cute. It is taken from, "The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents" by Terry Pratchet.
Kyk: Nefarious - morally objectionable. You can't mix sex and drugs with classical music!
Furzl: It definitely puts a smile on the dial.
Cookie Monster: Are there more of you? *sigh*
These word verifications have become like an exam, you fail if you get it wrong!
Shortypam: Ooops, missed you! Gammy mouse. Said it before and I will say it again, you are a lucky girl! And so am I actually. The man in my life trusts me enough to go and visit The Johnny Depp of the Cape without him for four whole days. Yes, I am bragging!
Not a bad entry considering your muse has wandered off, it's surprising what can be conjoured up when you sit at the keyboard with nothing particular to talk about, and if all else fails grab a camera and take some photo's.
Minette got it right there.
As for dear old Lizzie - she understands, I think, the innate confusion of humans.
