"Well, I garden. That's just utter joy to me...
And then there's the herb book…I have high hopes for it.
And the boys; they're not special, Lord knows,
but they're funny and nice, and I enjoy them…
And I study things: I've studied astronomy,
and ornithology;
I help with the Christmas Bird Count for Audubon,
and I volunteer with the Massachusetts Conservancy.
I belong to three different reading clubs;
I read constantly…
And I rent millions of videos,
and I watch the Arts and Entertainment Channel…
And I have friends, and I sew,
and I have three absolutely
worthless and eccentric cats.
And other things.
It really pisses me off when people assume my mind and soul
are impoverished just because my pocketbook is."
