Octopus's Garden

So, this is Good Friday, huh?

A) isn’t that redundant?
B) wasn’t such a good Friday for Jesus, now was it?
C) When do I get my chocolate bunny?

dammit.


Had a dream that I was triking through the cobblestone streets of Prague which, just as I reached the Charles Bridge, metamorphosed into Cambridge and the Harvard Bridge over to Boston’s Back Bay. Why Prague? Why the Harvard Bridge? Beats me—I was just trying to get home.

Mebbe this has something to do with yesterday's art supply odyssey?

Possibly my nocturnal travel fancy MIGHT have something to do with that martini Jen magicked up for me last night. I don’t generally drink them anymore. Why not? Too many damn calories, Dahling! OK, that and they’re vicious little hot flash triggers.

So, my beloved, exceptionally dry, Sapphire gin martini currently makes only the rarest of appearances. All in all this is a good thing but...sigh.

3 Octopus Hearts - a poem

Octopus floated,
Under the sea,
Crying her eyes out,
Why would that be?

Her boyfriend had written,

A letter with ink,
 


A letter as cold,

As an ice hockey rink…

He said it was over,

He’d found someone new,

And so she was crying,

What else could she do?

It hurt really bad,

In all of her parts,

But the pain was the worst,

In all 3 of her hearts…

What is an octopus?

Octopuses are cephalopod mollusks that live in oceans all around the world.
Octopuses have 8 legs (tentacles) that are lined with suction cups.
An octopus body is soft- it has no skeleton, the only hard part being its beak-like mouth.
Octopuses have 3 hearts- one main heart and two smaller hearts by its gills.
All octopuses have venom, but only the blue-ringed octopus is potentially deadly to humans.
Octopuses have a number of ways to protect themselves. They are fast swimmers that can hide in small spaces. They can also eject ink from their bodies that help them hide and also make it harder for predators to smell them.
Octopuses are considered to be the most intelligent of all invertebrates.
