Between

 A Rock & a Hard Place

I’m not sure what to do

I guess I could always live

In my empty house

And hope I have

At least a bare light bulb

Sept 7, 2010 Memory

 Fabulous weekend....minus the 20+ mile killer bike ride on Sunday with not enough water....had to fix that with being taken out to dinner...and Ben and Jerry's icecream for dessert!  :  )
