Sadistic?

Or just desperate

to ask the likes of me

to play...

This captivates me and I interprete it in more than one way ...

Don't see the reason to flinch ... in playing there is fun and joy.

Love,
Margherita

Ah, Margherita, our serenity knows that she can see through the cards, and no one dares to play with such a seer.



I came to read, but a short poem; I do miss your ramblings....

I am going to go have to dig through the archives, huh?

LOL...

I was hoping the wry humor would translate.

A SEER?

Yeah, that's it.

I ain't nervous--I'm just hyper-aware.

Thanks for the giggles, Kari. Humor is much needed medicine. *twitch*

I understand what you mean about not being nervous, but HYPER-aware.  

My mini-problem is the opposite.  I, too, am not nervous.  However, I sometimes get a fright at the slightest thing and jump and sometimes scream when I am very engrossed in what I am doing - especially if I am working - and am totally UNaware of what is going on around me and somebody walks into the room and/or speaks.  When I was at teachers' training college, the guys used to pop paper packets behind me to see how high I would jump!  People ask me what I think is happening, but I don't have time to think!  It is an involuntary action.  I often try to be a little aware of my surroundings too!
