| Posted by George Hoerner on 05/02/08 at 08:40 PM I love this! How many of escape every chance we get. The mind drifts and I'm gone to anywhere but here. We have so much difficulty dealing with here. Nice write! (I've spent so much time in B & N they began to think I worked there.) |

| Posted by Bruce W Niedt on 05/12/08 at 11:55 PM Sandy, you've outdone yourself! This a pleasant and amusing ramble that has the reader nodding in agreement all the way through. Who amongst us hasn't daydreamed about where we'd rather be than work on a Friday? You do it with a casual, confiding tone that draws the reader right in. Well done! d:-) |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 05/13/08 at 04:12 AM I can so relate to this piece. Here in Basel, I get lost in thought at each sidewalk cafe. Sitting in the sun, sipping on an espresso and eating a pastry. Anywhere but here comes to mind, but for now I am basking in the "here". Excellent write Sandy. |
