Itzhak

I cleared time to make a list of all the ways I procrastinate: planning, miming, revisiting old ideas, and making lists. I also fantasize castles are

Over.

Deep Sea Sigh

"Follow the bubble. Follow the bubble," they advised.

"Which one? Which one?"

"The right one!"

Whilst trying to decide which bubble was the right one, I slowly sank to the bottom. Not all the way to the bottom, but close enough to hear the clams laughing at my indecision and let me tell you clam laughter is the cruelest laughter of all.

So, what about "Bernie" who strongly prefers not to be in quotes? He's chugging along and, just maybe, is the bubble I should have chosen. Norma Timpkins is another good bubble and so is JOHN. Lots of bubbles all going up and my only job is to float with them

Bernie

Castles were built to keep out the people who couldn't dream.

Pretty simple, right?  I think so.  So, I'm dedicating my life to building my castle.

Before I was only throwing rocks, tonight I'm laying the first brick.You won't see it for a while.  Maybe a couple of weeks, but you will see it and you will note my start.

I've named my castle "Bernie."

Rationalizing Resolutions or Hoping the Mirror Won't Notice

Welcome to Second Friday blog post replete with second-string thoughts. If I'm not mistaken, this is my second post in the last six years about not having anything to post about.  Maybe you would like to go back to the beginning and find that particular post, becuase I'm sure it's better than this one.  Or maybe not.  You know, what would be a really good idea?  Saying I'm just going to go ahead and do this in the morning but tell myself I kept my resolution of blogging every Friday night, because I posted this closebutnotquite.

You what else is a problem?  Sitting in a New Mexican diner and noticing all the pictures of flowers aren't necessarily pictures of flowers.

Somewhere, a baby thought waits to be born -- just not tonight.

Here's the thought: I only like things  that make me smarter, richer, or thinner.

Happy New Post!

This year I resolved to enhance the appearance of my blog by posting on it.  Granted, it's only the second day of the year and I forgot to come up with a blog topic.

Just to catch you up, my life has improved since quitting my mortuary job upselling coffins to widows, but still isn't back to precrash status.  But that's all going to change soon.  Maybe maybe not, I don't know except I've resolved to post a new blog every Friday night.  So sit back and wait for next Friday when things will definitely be better.

Or so they say.
