Builders move materials around to make houses.
Artists shove pigments around to make art.
Writers move ideas from their heads onto paper or computers.
Philosophers move ideas around.
Farmers sow seeds and move their produce to markets.
People move food from their plates into their mouths. The stomach takes what the body needs, plus some it doesn’t need, and the rest is moved out.
Is that all that human endeavour amounts to – one big movement?

You forgot this one:
TG moves her foot and it makes contact with your shin.
You’re welcome. I do so love to help you edit and stuff… it’s so secretarial…
Secretaries are SO underestimated……….

I’ll have you know that spot is for everyone who comes and goes from the office, not just the secretary. And anyway… it was the temp what was blonde. I’ve been a redhead (of sorts… so to speak… sometimes it’s burgundy, sometimes auburn…) for about 20 years.
But thanks for pointing out how unfair the parking situation is at the office. I don’t see why DP gets his own spot and the rest of us have to share the one. I think I’m going to look into organizing a union at the office.
See… now you’d best come up with a really good poem to get him uncranky. Unions rarely stand for fracretaries who don’t get paid.
UNIONS!!!! there are unions involved!!!? ……. oh dear, oh dear …… this could get very tricky …..
Oh good, thanks Fraccy, a very useful memo …… *frantically searches for shin pads and a spare pair for GW if 70’s turns up – being blonde an’ all*
Is she posing on that beach again, or has she fallen into that black hole that caught you the other day?
I believe that a friend is visiting and I strongly suspect that alcohol might have been involved ……
OK, I won’t say a word……………..
What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day
Someone tell me how I feel
It’s silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight
Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Oh, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day
When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I’ll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin
Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it’s looking like a beautiful day
So throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year’d see me right!

It was raining earlier …… just sayin’

just sayin’
Quite accurate …… for once …..
If I was a secretary I would be offended ….
Tea girl? …..tee hee or should that be tea she ….
Did I miss something? Should I be offended? Okay.
Well then… harumph. I’m terribly upset. It’s going to take quite the gift to get me un-offended.
{{Thanks sis… I owe you one…}}
GW is in charge of gifts now ….. I’ve just promoted him. [brilliant!!! - perhaps now I'll get some well deserved peace]
And Larks move larkertratly, it’s TRUE! I read it on Wikipedia.
I’ve relied on Wikipedia for some time now to gain a true understanding of the female psyche …… it begins with a ‘p’ apparently ……
If I didn’t know you better i’d suspect you of taking the P out of 70s………….
I don’t think that there is a ‘p’ in 70’steen ….. I’ve done a spell check and everythink …..
Sorry, ‘course you’re right, I was thinkink of 7pees (does she have spellcheck on that new lappytop?)
I am not deaf you know I can hear you gossing ‘but moi….. yes it does have a spell checker but I choose not to use it ….what do they know?????
A wise decision young 70’s – ruins creativity and amusement ……..
& the ability of others to take the you know what out of me
I guess that comes under amusement in some books …..
Just let me have their names!!!!! *bristles and takes up a hanky as a weapon ….. a dirty hanky!*
[a KNOTTED dirty hanky - embroidered which takes away a bit of the threat ..... ho hum]
you know who you are …. mmm embroidered hankies.. you don’t see many of them these days??
When I say embroidered I mean I’ve written my name in the corner in case I lose it …..
After years of pushing paper and moving numbers I’m quite moved by your post – kinda demotivated actually …
My work is nearly done …… tee hee …… roll on the ’sofa’ years ……
tNb – he has the same effect on me.
Peabrain – You’ll be lucky.
You’re so right Lo,TG, he hasn’t named Kentucky, Fluff, Sixpence, Anywhose, Jiminycantplay, or Expextance yet, tsk!
…. and there’s Dozy, Sleepy, Yawny, Snoozy, Insideofeyelidsly, Drowsey, Nappy and Bumtingler as well ….. so much to do ….. moving ’stuff’ ….
you’re so deep daddyp
I am ……. for a puddle ……….
Ah! that’ll be you third on the right then, I can see why Lo,TG fell for you, http://www.puddleofmudd.com/
A few deaf-aids ago possibly – *twang*
GW – I didn’t fall FOR him, I fell OVER him. He always was a groveller.
True my love, true – sorry *whine*
Hope your knees have been kissed better Lo (and all the other bits)
There’s a puddle again? *Sigh* the cleaners are going to bill twice this month again now…
We could get a lap dog ……
I was just listening to the German Formula 1 coverage on 5Live, and the commentator said Mark Webber was using lighter fuel, have they changed the rules again???
Is he being sponsored by Zippo perchance?
maybe… remember what happens to molecules at absolute zero: all movememt ceases…
That’s very technical young Faisydae – I believe I’m at the beige stage of Brownian Motion …… my life is bleaching away – tee hee
Very moving
How are you today? Good night with Fi? …… do I need to ‘tsk’ or anything? ……..
a lovely day thank you …. ah I love weekends
… don’t tsk to loudly
Oh! is it Fee or Fi? And why would DP need to tsk? I’m interested now, both blondes?
Shush GW,the poor girl’s suffering ……. *BOOOOO* – tee hee
simmer down GW .. I don’t know you men!!!!!
HA!! I am ok now after a small hair of the dog (the dog is not impressed though)
It’ll end in tears …….
It will end in tears you are right as I am back in work tomorrow boo hoo
But how blonde?????
depends what is says on the box GW
Isn’t it ‘what it says on the tin’?
Sorry for being even more pedantic than usual, I think these red ant bites have affected what’s left of my brain……..
Skating on very thin ice there young GW …. 70’s powers are awesome …… *definitely hiding now*
i believe i shall go out into the backyard and endeavor to have my own movement
Make sure you tidy up afterwards Nooter ….. otherwise the Human might be complaining ……… again …..
haha ha hahaha haha hahaha haha
tidy up after myself! ha!
you do something like that just once and its expected of you for the rest of your life.
A point I suppose Nooter – like a digging a hole for yourself …….
I regularly move chemicals from one container to another. Move a little of this, a little of that… oops, move it out back and let the flames die down…
You scientists are great fun ….. [I think I'll just take cover behind the sofa for a little while]
I can’t read this anymore, I keep being reminded of blondes waggling, can’t you ban that minx 70s ???
the short answer is NO…. [btw woggling is better lol]
Why are you bringing scouts into this now? ….. all very confusing …….
there are always scouts involved somewhere!
Scouts? no, they’re boys. Gurl Guides? Canadian Gurl Guides? NOW your talking!!!
OK, I was making a poor joke.
……. and terrible English ….. standards GW, standards ………
Sorry, the bad English was intentional to tempt ‘Ugogurl’ to comment (been back 4 days looking for her comment but she seems to have disappeared or was commenting on another blog)
I suppose Canadians should be encouraged …… poor things …….
What a moooooving post! Dunno about humans…but I’m Bra…& I KNOW what I’M made for!
The exception that proves the rule ….. you stop ‘things’ from moving ……. an anti-jiggle device if you will ……
@Olga: You do a wonderful job, but a bit too good, i’m quite partial to a jiggle………….
