The Muse is Dead.....

We're not sure what exactly happened, but I suspect heat stroke. It has been intolerably hot here, and everyone knows that Rachelle's Muse cannot work in these conditions.

Currently, I am in the market for a new one, so if anyone knows where I can buy a cheap muse, let me know! It must meet the following expectations:

Have a wicked sense of humor
Know the meaning of "Na-nu, Na-nu"
Be able to count to 1,000 backwards
Have the ability to leap small buidings in a single bound (erm..... just for the heck of it)
To be able to write about absolutely nothing, and still get a laugh from my readers
To be privy to provocative prose, and witty alliterations
Be able to translate incoherent babble into meaningful, tender poetry
And last but not least, it has to be good with children

Anyone...... anyone....... ???

*sigh* alas poor muse..... I knew thee well

Until I find myself a new muse, I hope you enjoy these cloud pictures I took a few days ago.
Do you see a bunny or a dragon? Is that Yoda????

Ps.... I am in the market for subject matter! If you can think of something you would like me to write about, just drop a note into the endless comment bucket!

I heard Erato was on sale, on eBay.
Not much of a buildings leaper though. She's more of a slow runner on long tracks.:)

It'll come to you, when it'll feel like it. If someone says "write about this please", you'll block out completely, pressure and all that , you know...
Inspiration is free, yet hard to get it.
Forever an optimist,
Greetings from Silfiriel

I knew I forgot something. (I am like a best candidate Alzheimer here, seriously i should start some exercises for memory improvement))
The pics look great but they are not clean, (it was probably dark or just after sunset from what i see.You should try soe graphic software for removing photo's noise.But the symbolism is impeccable ....clouded mind, can't write...the muse can't reach through all the mist and couds...perfect!

Forever an optimist,(if i don't forget it this will be my motto)
Pozdrav , Silfiriel

Powerful photos. Humongous three dimensional puffy carriers of water vapor.

Dear Silfiriel,
Oh yea, by the way, I tried to enhance my memory, did you read "I need a new memory chip"?
didn't work out so well for me.
Be careful my friend! You never know where you might end up when next your memory fails you! :))
I am right there with you.....


what were we talking about??......

I see what you mean about noise I think, is it the dark shadows on the clouds?

Dear Chewy,
Thanks! I couldn't take my eyes off of them, they were indeed powerful. But I think I got too carried away for my son.... he was ready to drive the car back up to the house himself and leave me on the road with my camera!!

Dear Bob,
I have to tell you, yesterday when I read this, I was pretty down.
Life you know, it kind of drags you down at times, no?
Then I read this, and I laughed, and laughed, and laughed!

Thank you my friend, I will consider seriously writing about pants. :))
