Quote

I read this today in Louise Erdrich's The Plague of Doves, and it seems oddly applicable:

"What men call adventure usually consists of the stoical endurance of appalling daily misery."

There's no direct correlation, but still. . . .

So I clicked over to say, yep sounds just about right, and I notice your blog heading description says "a love of adventure and of each other." Does that mean you're asking for a little misery? Hmmmmm......

Seriously. Let's talk. Miss you!
