It's been an interesting week. So interesting that instead of indulging in WHOLE milk (it's the equivalent of slapping a container of butter on your thighs) today and a bowl of Cookie Crisp, I should have had a glass of tequila with salt and a lime. I'm just out of sorts and I can't get back to me. I feel like one of those peeps on Hoarders. You know, the ones where the cleaning crew has arrived with a mask and a hazmat suit and the Hoardee (is that a word?) says they haven't really noticed the odor of 3 years worth of trash and black mold growing in the house because they have a Renuzit air freshener in their condemned kitchen. Yeah. And they whip out a bottle of Febreeze to emphasize their dedication to fresh living. I'm a bit of a clean freak so this isn't the appropriate analogy. The washing machine belt broke earlier this week so the laundry piling up is making me feel a bit anxious. Not even hearing "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba this afternoon could lift my confused spirits.
It's nothing really but I believe that our mind holds answers to any questions we have. I did a great deal of research on this theory . The problem is that our minds are so cluttered with stuff (particularly mine with US Weekly, Dlisted.com, NYPost) that our thinking is frequently cloudy. Or maybe the term is clouded. Anyway, I have this special deck of cards I use to ask questions, but it takes a while to break the cards in to where they "work." My "official cards are missing and the new deck doesn't feel right. The real cards are red with a brown bear on them, so if you find them send them back to me please. I can't really put up a sign that says "MISSING-ALLEGED USEFUL DECK OF CARDS FOR LIFE QUESTIONS." People will think I am totally crazy!! So, I went back to my use of license plates in the interim. If you are reading this you think I am officially insane, but it helps me unclutter my mind. Try this. Concentrate on a yes or no question, and when next car passes to the left, check the letters of the plate. A y, e, or s means the answer is yes and a n or o means the answer is no. But you have to start with easy questions you know first to get the ball rolling. And if the plate has none of those letters, refocus, concentrate and ask again. This is highly scientific wouldn't you agree? Did Plato or Einstein subscribe to these theories? Nah, but I have to use what I've got.
Blah! Listen, I don't want to sound ungrateful or whiny because it's a silly thing. I get knocked down, but I get up again. You're never gonna keep me down. Right on. The kids were watching "Little House on The Prairie" tonight and Pa was transferring explosives with Louis "An Officer and a Gentleman" Gossett Jr. Pa did it to get $100 for 10 days worth of work. I wasn't paying attention to the rest of the show so I am sure something depressing happened like an explosion or Pa's boots fell apart causing him to have to walk barefoot 300 miles to get back to Walnut Grove to see Carolyn and the kiddos. Anyway, gotta keep on keeping on and put on a happy face. And spread sunshine all over the place.Triple salchow, triple toe loop, triple lutz.
