Tony, no chocci cuz Im not allowed, been naughty you see...
Actually, Doc says so, and it wont do my blood sugar and other bits any good. Anything that tastes good out of my reach... lovely don't you think. Who wants to be a saint? Not me, but for now I'll be good for health sake.

Bottled beer and cigs

Battle of the bulge or battle of the sonnets?
These are fun ... I hope you don't take Spenser's example too far, since he supposedly died for lack of bread!  Are we talking  Dedicatory Sonnets here or the Spenserian stanza?  Both feature the extra syllables (the alexandrine if anyone's interested) and yes I am reading it (ok, tell me to shut up).  I'll look in again.

Is that lollies I see!!! Come everyone, make an effort.
for your information, I am on a sugar-free, wheat-free diet, and I am as thin as a stick, plus I hate fatty food. If you all ate at my house, I promise you you would all lose weight because I am being sooo good at the moment. the only thing I miss is chocolate ummm. I am good but this is not by choice. So you try too, if I can do it, you can too. Wipe that chocolate off your face Tonysonit! come on, I saw you, don't lie... Just teasing.

Hi Sonnet 27
I thank you for reading my stuff. This is new to me but I am enjoying having the outlet. I liked the line at the end of your poem about staining one's teeth with your sins. I like cigs and coffee. I can't resist.

do you ever think sitting at a computer for ages writing must be so bad for
.......us? It may be good to exercise the brain, but I eat so much rubbish sitting here which I wouldn't normaly do. ie; jelly babies, liquorice allsorts and the like...how disgusting! Glad we take a lot of long walks. I am going  to get a nice drink of water right now....

Tony
Keep up the good work dont let anything drag you down

posted by Kat02 on October 1, 2006 at 12:43 PM | link to this | reply

it made me smile... the sight of willpower... that sags!
Keep this up
Don't let the Devil
grab your love handle
snuff his candle
in his face Evil
Uphill battle
soon will be won
Let will power
take you by the hand
like a friend
you understand
don't let the Evil one stand
in your narrow path
t'is wide enough
for you and your flabby friend
Come on Tony
You can do it!!!
This is my contribution for today!
