grilling

stages of life

or as Shakespeare said:

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms;
Then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lin'd,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion;
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything."

I think I'll grill some veggies and some chicken. Doesn't grilled eggplant and peppers, summer squash and zucchini and corn sound good? I may just roast them, getting the drill out seems like too much work when it's hot.

Went for my mammogram today.

I need to take them the Rosie t shirt that says I got squished.

Watched the Movie Twilight. The book is always was better.

Stopped at the library to get some things to look at for s.s., King Lear, Midsummer night's dream, Huck Finn, The Republic by Plato, Merchant of Venice and The Sound and the fury by Faulkner.

What to choose...there is so much.
