feeling the familiar deja vu of communication failure...

catching the details of my parent's latest cruise from mom; better post some pics of the monkeys and that cave tubing excursion!!!

can't take my bath without a book, and I just finished the one I was reading recently...

yearning for a meal, a massage and a nap...

Quote by pataphor

Added the definition for pataphor to Ivory-Tower: An extended metaphor that creates its own context. A pataphor attempts to create a figure of speech that exists as far from metaphor as metaphor exists from non-figurative language. Also, when an idea seems to take on a life of its own. An assumption based on an assumption. 2 degrees of separation from reality.
