“The gods have a great sense of humor, don't they? If you lack the #iron and the fizz to take control of your own life, if you insist on leaving your fate to the gods, then the gods will repay your weakness by having a grin or two at your expense. Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don't be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked.” #QuotsySept19

Redwritinghood I Love Robbins! (edited) 5y
Zoes_Human Jitterbug Perfume is my favorite Tom Robbins. 5y
TK-421 @Zoes_Human I‘ve been meaning to reread it for a couple years. I‘m thinking maybe it‘ll be my #LitsyAtoZ2019 choice for ‘J‘! 5y

“Ironing was a particularly galling waste of time. You'd spend twenty minutes pressing one shirt front and back, spraying starch and getting the creases sharp, but once the man of the house put it on, it would wrinkle as soon as he bent an elbow; plus, you couldn't even see whether the danged shirt was ironed or not under his suit coat.”

BookNAround Hehe. At the end of the school year last year, I only ironed the very front and collar of my kid‘s choir tuxedo shirt since I knew they wouldn‘t be allowed to remove their jackets at any point during the grad ceremony. 5y
