I've had a dental implant installed.

Now that my mouth has stopped bleeding, I'd like to have a look at it, but I can't because my house isn't well lit enough (blast you cheap lightbulbs).

I'm going swimming, this afternoon. I love the water, as long as it's not too deep. :)

I love pop rocks.

I've always wanted to try and make some kind of hybrid between pop rocks and chewing gum.

I've finished reading my book of Grimms' Fairy Tales. It's an old book, so it contains many stories that have largely been forgotten to time, but are still worth reading. You might also be surprised at how politically incorrect some fairy tales are in their original form.

Now I am reading a book of native American folk tales.

I had a book years ago that was The Annotated Mother Goose. It was really interesting because a lot of the verses were really hidden political commentary. Hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle...is really about Queen Elizabeth I and her court, for instance.

My parent had a book of NW Native American tales called The Box of Daylight.

That's so cool! When was this Grimms Fairy Tales Book(s) published? Who published it/them. I collect antique fairy tales and folk stories. :) LOL Your right, some of them are politically incorrect. I have many from 19th Century. They're very fragile, some more than others.

Aimless, I had seen a documentary that was about old nursery rhymes and verses that explained where they came from and what they were really about. I need to search for a book like that Annotated Mother Goose book. The NW Native American tales, The Book Of Daylight sounds really interesting too..

I wish I had that book again. Maybe one of my siblings has it. One of my favorites was of the worm face people.
