OUR DREAMS ARE MADE OUT OF REAL THINGS....
packing --happy Monk -- though not as melancholy as Tony Shalhoub's character, i do possess a monk-ality of sorts. so packing is a challenge. time for toiletries countdown. Lliterally as I stand at vanity counting the q-tips -- einstein would be proud -- 2 people x 7 days = 14 but then 2 ears = 28 + 4 if xtra need arises. Phew...So there we go 32 q-tips. Some may question, why not take the whole pack? Because....as I've grown older I have become a minimalist AND with the movement of years I have become more frugal -- so I buy in bulk. Nate would flip his skin (bald) if I took an xtra suitcase just for q-tips. On later reflection of my Q-tip OCD-like experience, i realize a deeper meaning -- at this point some may think, wow, how nurturing why does she feel the need to make sure they both have q-tips? Just a nurturing nature? I think not. the q-tips for my sweetness is simple: so he can hear me (though I say little)... BUT the q-tips for me (here comes my selfish nature) so I can hear the ocean tide at daybreak & days end -- he is a man of fewer words than I. We both like Jack Johnson:-) And we both know "our dreams are made out of real things."
