Things On My Kitchen Counter That Shouldn't Be There (in which we discover that Jennifer is a bit of a slob and has nothing more interesting today)
1. A beer glass with the Big Sky "Moose Drool" logo (empty)
2. Two teabag wrappers for green tea with lemongrass
3. The Fall/Winter issue of the National Poetry Review
4. A small piece of tinfoil
5. A flyer for Lavender Fields Day Spa on San Juan island, printed on shimmery lavender paper (I think this came out of a book).
6. A 20 oz. package of mixed beans for soup (Hurst's HamBeens brand)
7. Three scraps of paper with early drafts of poems on one side, and on the other sides (respectively): A note reminding me that Scott's truck has both the left and center rear brake lights burnt out; words for a poem in progress -- plucking out, quill, wingspan, sparkle, topple; a shopping list for chicken broth, green peppers and carrots.
8. A silver hair-claw with tiny aurora borealis crystals
9. My camera
10. A blue plastic breadbag clasp I absent-mindedly broke into five pieces.
11. The Sibley Field Guide to Birds of Western North America

Um...led here by your comment on...Dick's...at salon.com; the party jokes, esp. black light.
To refresh your memory:'I discovered another odd application of black light by accident. Having been invited to view a teen-ager's newly-redecorated room, I happened to glance in the mirror, and was horrified to see all the (prematurely) white hair usually concealed by Clairol revealed in all its (?) glory. The moral of the story: If you dye your hair and lie about your age, stay out of venues featuring black light.

And all I was going to do...was say...
'but when you're really bald, you don't have to worry about the white hair; who cares?'...
http://blogs.salon.com/0004352/ at radioland...I'm also http://www.livejournal.com/users/oregonnerd/ and you're also a fellow poet, and invited to apply at http://www.livejournal.com/community/evidence0flife/ ...which is a community of poets.
...Which may be imposing. I read this and the entry above and this is a tickler/teaser/attempt at becoming acquainted or something of the sort. Etiquette on the Internet in some cases and venues is a trifle unclear, particularly for touchy intellectual sorts (of which I am most assuredly of course...not one).
