On this cold rainy Sunday I pass on something I learned a long time ago: Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn’t! Your vote is in!
Okay. I have a question / observation after a couple months here. After sending a lot of messages here: Is there a glitch in the "human verification system," does it know I'm not human, does one plus one no longer equal two...or am I genuinely too dumb to add single digits? I get an error every time I send a new message. Hmm. Have a great day! Votes are in!
Facts: Every family on Earth is dysfunctional. And, everyone thinks their family is craziest. Here's my entry in family lunacy: The time is 9:00, New Years Eve. The hoard of children are bored of their zombie shooting game. What next? Naturally...the old childhood game of cops and robbers becomes survivors versus zombies. Makeup and all. After all, what new year can truly start unless you've been tasked with impersonating a zombie? And, as the artsy one...my task was, assemble cardboard stage, assign harmless weapons, do makeup I can easily clean later, lead my zombies, and recruit a cousin to lead the survivors. This was live action Left 4 Dead, and my job was to portray a special zombie who cries to let you know she's in the area. You tell me: were my tears and wailing an act, or insanity setting in, and the wails real? New Years' check list: impersonate a zombie to entertain a bunch of kids/teenagers...check. Haha! TGIF!

Recipe for a lousy night of attempted sleep: take one gigantic housefly, buzzing at the volume of a 747. Add three enthusiastic, but utterly inept feline bug hunters. Result: after eight hours of attempting to sleep through the fly's buzzing, the stampede of pursuing cats, and very, very loud, "ICK, ICK, ICK!!!" noises from Persephone in stalking mode with the occasional bang of a cat running into something...I finally got up. Today's mission: run my errands...and outsmart that damned fly! I know it's cold out...but my required amount of sleep is more important than giving the bug a home. By a unanimous vote of four to zero, this fly has been evicted from the household. Have an awesome Thursday! Votes are in!
Thursday is the Irish day to send wisdom to your friends so here it is just for you: Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny. Vote is in!
Wishing you the best on this Wednesday with this thought: You don’t have to fear defeat if you believe it may reveal powers that you didn’t know you possessed. Now go get it! Your vote is in!
