Today's quote is: ~Curiosity will conquer fear even more than bravery will.~ James Stephens
My thoughts:~ Ahh well, yes. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back. Who said that? I don't know, but I like it. I have to agree. Most people are not by nature, overly brave. It tends to be the what if I do this...or the what will happen....or even the what's this all abouts, that really motivate people. We are naturally driven by actions and the concequenses/benefits they might reap. We are inquisitive and curious by nature. Curiosity is the main motivation behind inventions, explorations, learning. It's why we want to get to know people. Curiosity about something tends to make it an interest or a passion. Bravery tends to make me think more of the men and women who sacrifice their lives for us, not a person creeping upon a murder scene or a notoriously haunted house. THAT is curiosity! Bravery does not cause people to get out of bed if they hear a bump in the night...it's curiosity. Wanting to know who or WHAT is in their house at this hour and why. Disagree if you want, but I know I'm right!
LOL
I didn't get to write yesterday because I was at my mom and dad's house visiting. She made a good roast, my favorite kind...a golden mushroom roast. Of course being Irish, we had to have the healthy serving of homemade mashed potatoes. She even made me my very own carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. *drool*
I ate until I couldn't move, glutton that I am.
LOL I also beat them at Rummy 500. I have a very Italian muse! There is no beating me at cards. I have his luck! Wait, that might not be such a good thing. Hmm...I have to think on that.
Jim went to court again this morning. I swear just saying that makes me feel like he is a criminal!
Traffic court...there, that is a little better. Law breaker!!!...ROFL.
Anyway, the magistrate told him to waver it or something like that and he did, so they dropped the speed enough that the BMV can't use that ticket against him to suspend his license. Ohio came up with a new revised code I don't remember the exact number, I think it was 126 or something that cites CDL lisences and the number of offenses with license suspension time. We fought hard but beat it!
Yeahhhhh! BOOO to the system and "the man."
The magistrate also said that Jim had a very good lawyer. That he never had one come in before and argue so passionately on his client's behalf. Hmmm...makes me wonder why he is so passionate about Jim!
What were they doooooin? LMAO. God I am a sick puppy. Really, I ain't right, but we all knew that already.
So, anyway. Now I am off in hopes that I can get some writing done after I load this dishwasher so I can be deafened by it's humming and run the sweeper. Crumbs...eeek...crumbs. Have a great Friday everyone and remember...even though we got snowed on so cruelly...in March, Spring is almost here!!!
