Title: Country Girl

Sunday market in Pollensa in winters past.

Who'd a thunk it could come to this: I envy a pair of pockets!

Here Rob, let me cheer you up. As I was trying to create abstracts with my camera, I ended taking a photo of Marilyn Monroe. Can you see her  in the bottom right corner of the window with her now famous flying skirt. If that doesn't work for you, I'm not sure what will.

The Marilyn one with which I am familiar is shot from the front; I can understand that if one desires to produce a figurine, then it has to have three dimensions, another of those pesky natural laws akin to the one that prevents me from flying without aircraft support. Life is sometimes cruel, yet another natural law.

Think I'll just vent my frustrations via the pockets.

It's actually Alice in Wonderland after drinking from the "Drink Me" cup.

They are not all fat. Nor cello-like.

The androgyny of a 70s bummer bomber.

The cling's the thing: male bums probably don't sit like that, though as I have seldom studied them - via a camera or otherwise - I could be mistaken; maybe she remembers George Michael?

Funny you should say that, Rob, the first thought I had was it's George Michael!

Well, knowing his history...

I always thought: what a waste; he had so many girls he could have enjoyed instead.
