Laugh Out Red!



"It is better to be alone and bored
than to be with other people and bored.
When you're alone you can at least take a nap"

"It is also advisable for crashing bores to get more sleep.
If they are asleep, they can not inflict themselves on us"

- excerpts from the book.

For today's Ruby Tuesday, I am revisiting my dog Sweepy's favorite old book by Jessica Zafra. Its humor and satire still makes me guffaw and ache from laughing too hard. Now you know where Sweepy get his inspiration. For more RED hop on over to Mary's Ruby Tuesday.

Haha, you van tell.. but that's right.. I prefer to be alone at too many times, not because I' bored all the times, but sometimes my energy goes away among other people.. and then I prefer times for myself, just to do what I want.. I'm a bit selfish there I think.. :/ :)
