Kim Juggling (10 MB AVI file)

I searched Google for the first phone number I remember back in the 70s. Now it belongs to:

• a funeral home in Paris, IL
• a day care in Rossburgh, South Africa
• a apartment property in Pembroke Pines, FL

A couple years ago, I did a google search for "6870 Miles." That was the name of a recording project I was a part of at the time. Two songs resulted from that project.

Anyway... I decided to resurrect my Google findings from the past and see if I could find some more. Here you go...

I am such a risk taker. I mean... today... when I was walking Lily... I walked halfway down the street with a shoelace untied... and I *knew* it was untied!!

I sent an email to a nice lady I work with to set up a meeting on Monday. She replied:

"Great - I bet we could meet in that area next to my cubicle - it is open and has green chairs."

Thank goodness for green chairs.

I told Bruce at work that I wanted to write in my blog, but I couldn't think of anything to write about. So he asked me if I ever blogged about when he hit me in the eye with a juggle ball. So you are reading it here first... Bruce hit me in the eye with a juggle ball. Not on purpose. I was juggling, and he reached out to grab one of the balls out of the air. He hit different ball, and it flew into my eye. He felt bad. It didn't hurt, but I should have played it up. I was too shocked to think about taking advantage. heh!
