So, does anyone ever play something like the "
6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game with things in their own life? I'm constantly amazed at how things intersect and double back; such as my husband working on
trails in the area my family lives in West Virginia, or meeting my
high school English teacher at
ICFA. I had a fun mental game yesterday where I connected my interest in children's literature to my love of riding
motorcycles.
Brian and I love the show "
Sons of Anarchy" (think
Sopranos only with a biker gang, plus with some
Hamlet thrown in). Brian was reading an article in HOG (Harley Owners Group) magazine about the show. He was surprised (as was I) to find out one of the
lead actors is from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. I remembered that name because it's one of the places I visited on the Hollins Abroad trip because
Seven Stories, an amazing Children's Books museum, is there. This also ties into our
Ren Faire interest, as
mja700 and I were once looking up
Mediaeval Baebes performances and found that they were going to be singing at the castle she and I visited in Newcastle.
I'm just rambling. But I'm having fun. And procrastinating.
