magic carpet

rides are 50 cents

My husband went to Istanbul, among other places, of late, and is having this rug shipped here for my office.  Obviously, Turkish rugs are the bomb, so I'm thrilled. 

I'm told the part that looks kind of dark grey-brown is actually blue, which'll go with the chair I've got in here. Next up, an ottoman or two with a lot of brass tacks and a little table for tea and books.

Dude, he went to Istanbul and DIDN'T take YOU??? Oh, it should be ON! Do you want me to bury him under a cherry tree for you? JK jk...
That is one cool rug.
I just read your interview. Very nice. I left a few questions for you.
See you Saturday!

Thanks! I'll check it out.

He left on very short notice. He said he really wants to take me. He'll be going again soon for sure.

Is that a sex scene rug?

Just wondering.

Sex scene on a magic carpet!

I'm going to go write that and maybe build a book around it.

Very pretty. I could use a magic carpet ride.

I like Mike's idea. I hope he posts the scene . .

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view...


Ahem. Sorry. I couldn't help myself.

Excellent, Mike! Can't wait to read it.

Hi Donna!

Again with the poetry, Christine? :). I like it.

It's lyrics from the theme song from Disney's "Aladdin."
