Water cooler conversations...

Dear Friends,

So, a little water cooler chatting this morning! There is not a loss of conversation is there?

State of the Union Speech
Christopher Dorner
The Pope
Lent
 
 
I spent last evening at one of our local restaurants, Timbers, to hear the State of the Union Speech with fellow Democrats. Believe it or not, there are a handful of us in Northern Indiana. We cheered, joked, drank beer and felt very American while sitting at the bar. (One of my fellow friends paid for everything, that is so American as well!)
 
Coming home late I chatted with Virginia on Christpher Dorner and who could forget the Pope?
 
I have decided not to give anything up for Lent. Well, I am not Catholic, and I just can't think of anything to give up. Chocolate? Wine? Beer? Facebook (OMG, I could not do that!) So I will just live my life and watch others drool over my double dutch chocolate cake when they come for tea.
 
My water cooler conversation at school is unique in itself as we discuss art, domes (from churches), writing, poetry, and other artsy topics as we drink black coffee and head off to class at the last moment.
 
Water cooler conversations. What was yours this morning?
