It’s National Piano Month. When I was with my grandmother, the musicians that fascinated me were Liberace and Lawrence Welk . (Yes, the accordion doesn’t quite count, but through childish eyes, it did). I didn’t make up my mind to learn to play then, but the music sounded wonderful.
Who are your favorite musicians?
Kit Atop the Tower by Tommia Wright
(Photographers, artists, poets: show us SURPRISE.)
My brain cells and muse cannot come up with a proper prose response to today’s Daily Prompt: Tell us a story — fiction or non-fiction — with a twist we can’t see coming.
However, Casz Brewster’s marvelous story, “Fried Bologna Sandwich” fits the bill quite nicely.
Here are a few other takes on the prompt:
“Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” ~ Thomas A. Edison
“Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don’t turn up at all.” ~ Sam Ewing
It’s amazing how the view of a city can change going up a few floors…
Smith Tower – from the Columbia Tower by Tommia Wright
The Smith Tower was the highest building west of the Mississippi in 1914. It has since dwarfed with the passage of time. The view outside of the Chinese Room on the 35th floor is breathtaking nevertheless.
Columbia Tower from the Smith Tower by Tommia Wright
Getting to the observation deck of the Columbia Tower required two separate elevator rides and the popping of ears before an eye-popping view of the surrounding area (despite the clouds).
What heights have you ascended to in your city/town recently?
Today is “Be Late for Something Day.”
Tri-Cycle Time by Tommia Wright
This Dr. Seuss quote explains my day/month/year. “How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?” ~ Dr. Seuss
Time on the Wall by Tommia Wright
“The clock never stops, never stops, never waits. We’re growing old. It’s getting late.” ~ Ben Folds
Time Encased by Tommia Wright
“It gets late early out there.” ~ Yogi Berra
Time Encased, Too by Tommia Wright
“Which form of proverb do you prefer Better late than never, or Better never than late?” ~Lewis Carroll

The amazing things we can learn from children!
One day, while my daughter was happily distracted in her own marker drawings, I decided to risk pulling out a new sketchbook I had special ordered. It had dark paper, and was perfect for adding highlights to. I had only drawn a little in it, and was anxious to try it again, but knowing our daughter’s love of art supplies, it meant that if I wasn’t sly enough, I might have to share. (Note: I’m all about kid’s crafts, but when it comes to my own art projects, I don’t like to share.) Since she was engrossed in her own project, I thought I might be able to pull it off.
