I think I sat next to that couple in a restaurant last night. I am always amazed at the folks who go to a nice restaurant and sit at he same table staring at their phones.

I've been to restaurants where everyone at one table was looking

I had a nightmare last night that I'd received a text,but didn't know it,
so I was unable to respond immediately to it.I woke up in a cold sweat,and

We have them in western Oklahoma as well. There are places out in the field where even my dog avoids because it is overgrown with goat heads. They are hard to eradicate, and the seeds can lay dormant for years and then sprout. I just try and keep my grass short to keep them from growing tall enough to sprout their nefarious seed pods.

I once had a nightmare that I was driving down a multi-lane highway and
there was a Pinto in front of me,an early Audi 5000 behind me,& a Suzuki Samuri
