My Bedside Table, One Book And Stuff

Hello Relations,

I have Sherman Alexie's latest, "BLASPHEMY", New and Selected Stories on my bedside table.  The book is a must read for any fan of Mr. Alexie and is indeed a fine introduction to one of our National Book Award Winner's. I am enjoying this very much and have already decided this will be a re-read, once completed. So entertaining it is to have brand new stories along with some of my all-time favorites. Yes, I am truly enjoying this book very much. Thank yous to my Honorable Number One Daughter for the sweet gift. Between she and I, we have gathered what is the most complete collection of printed Sherman Alexie I have ever seen. Better than any book store - better than even any library I have ever visited. I mean.

There's three post cards that need only a postage stamp and they're ready for posting. I don't know why and yes, I have the postage - it's just one of those things I guess. Come Wednesday...

...also have my journal and a pad of paper attached to a clip board. One neon yellow high lighter and I couldn't find one pen here. Queer? Needless to say, I will have that situated nicely by night fall. There are photos of Brenda and I, done up photo booth style, a framed photo of my children when they were baby's. Stickers for my nieces and nephews too.

There's a faux wooden box on stilts that contains little things I enjoy pulling out just to look at sometimes. There's a couple of my marbles in there. Private stuff. Indian stuff.

I have a standing pose able Woody doll and an old Cowboy Smurf standing next to pictures of Jesus Christ. One small stereo that pounds out a sound, my lamp and compounds, powder, oils and ointments from lands far away from here. Oh yeah, an alarm clock that has an alarm I can't hear sometimes and my cellular device that I never hear while laying in my bed.

My bedside table, one book and stuff.
