Welcome! This blog is part of the annual "International Fake Journal Month" contest which runs during April each year. For April 2011 I took on the identity of a fictional character, Miss Lili Ann Percy, in my daily journaling and posted pages from her journal in this blog. Lili is a 36 year old Manhattanite and professional furniture designer who chucked it all to move to a small island off the coast of Florida. To enlarge pictures simply click on them. Please enjoy Lili's ponderings.......

JOURNAL ENTRY #17

TULIP--NOUN:  A BULBOUS SPRING-FLOWERING PLANT OF THE LILY FAMILY, WITH BOLDLY COLORED CUP-SHAPED FLOWERS.

----------

DAD BROUHT ME A BOUQUET OF TULIPS WHEN HE VISITED.  IT'S JUST LIKE HIM TO REMEMBER ME TELLING HIM HOW MUCH I MISSED THE FLOWERS OF NORTHERN SPRING.  WHO KNEW TULIPS WERE IN THE LILY FAMILY?  GOOD THING PENELOPE DIDN'T KNOW THAT OR SHE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE NAMED ME TULIP INSTEAD OF LILI!  :-)

WELL, I DECIDED TO PAINT THE LITTLE DINING ROOM RED, SO I THINK THE LIVING ROOM IS GOING TO BE DEEP BLUE AND THAT SHOULD MATCH MY NEW CHAIR NICELY.  THE WALLS ARE A SICK GREEN FROM THE LAST TENANT RIGHT NOW.  I JUST CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO REPAINT IT ANOTHER SHADE OF GREEN.


NOW IT'S OFF TO THE PARK WITH MY CAMERA...IF I CAN BRING MYSELF TO GET UP OFF THIS DECK CHAIR.  THIS VIEW IS VERY MESMERIZING.  AND, I'M LAZY!
