I have my:<BR/><BR/>-bedtime reading<BR/>-research reading for work (educational research / professional development for teachers)<BR/>-young adult reading (to be able to talk about YA books with my students)<BR/>-other seemingly random interests (soccer, animals, California history, gardening)<BR/><BR/>I don't know how to read everything I want to read without being a promiscuous reader.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11655302616685481610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-85944157287485032012009-02-23T22:57:00.000-08:002009-02-23T22:57:00.000-08:00P, what impresses me most about this pix is how yo...P, what impresses me most about this pix is how you somehow got world famous photographer Sandel to take your picture!!<BR/><BR/>Yes, indeedy, you ought to be in pictures.Cafe Pasadenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12366911652838118347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-79068518628708510352009-02-23T21:59:00.000-08:002009-02-23T21:59:00.000-08:00"I'd look big if this photo were taken by a small ..."I'd look big if this photo were taken by a small person."

I look little because of the POV. John is tall. I'd look big if this photo were taken by a small person.<BR/><BR/>It seems odd to me that that's how he sees me all the time.<BR/><BR/>Literary, musical and historical references today (not to mention religious)!
