Sorry for my absence these days. I've been sleeping a lot since my surgery and also writing much. I'm rewriting a play that I wrote five years ago--a play that I really like. Rewriting it is kind of addicting in fact. When completed I plan to enter it in the BBC's International Radio Play Competition. I've read many blogs over the past hour. I think that I'm pretty much caught up now. Wishing my friends a wonderful weekend. Hugs. M.A.

Mary Ann's words of wisdom for today: When trying to pull the wool over someone's eyes, make sure that the other person isn't smarter than you.

    These are all collages of words and phrases that I have cut out of magazines and newspapers, put into collages, scanned and then tampered with. This particular one posted at the same times as the rest. When the new myspace came in, this one only came up as an error, so I reposted it today along with the plant and light photos. See new Plant and Light album.
