Deflated, but sparkle anyway

 


Fun neighborhood Christmas display.  Especially at night.

   Well, he did ask.  So I described my teaching career in more detail than probably needed for this on-line group.  He responded, “So we have an Adherent-of-Legominism.”  I burst into guffaws.  “I knew there was a reason I liked you!  You just gave meaning to my whole career as an art teacher!”  (To see the joke, you may need to consult Beelzebub’s Tales chapter XXX Art,  p. 455 & others.)

    I must admit I also took it as a compliment, one of three or four I’ve received recently.  I appreciate them.  They boost my spirits.  And they remind me of my taste, like sugar, for flattery.  Vanity, thy name is Sandy!
