M y friend has a bumper sticker - "Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?" That's a good bumper sticker - especially for us middle aged folks trying to keep lists straight in our heads. You know get up to get something and forget what it was - what a pain that is - especially when the "thing" was up the stairs - there you are up the stairs totally forgetting what you went up the stairs for. How many times have you stood in the grocery store, knowing all the items in the cart are not all the items you are suppose to buy. Lists - need to make lists - I keep lists everywhere, sometimes I make lists of the lists I need to make - Of course I often forget to take my lists when I go to the store or wherever else. I make lists of things I need to do for work - but that lists I forget a lot. Work is a fluid situation, less listing the better. I make lists of birthdays so I can send cards out on time - now I use my iPhone to set calendar reminders - I have a stack of birthday cards, anniversary cards, graduation cards, wedding cards, I bought my father the same birthday card last year and this year; know how I know? Because he never received either of them - they are in my unsent card stack. I have a card I bought for my niece when she graduated college - 20 years ago. I am not great about card sending, I believe I keep up Hallmark and American Greetings stocks, but the US Postal service - no, that's not true I even buy the stamps; somewhere between the card and stamp buying I lose the write a quick note and drop it in the box. That whole the best intentions - that is moi! I have the best intentions, just bad on my follow through - which is similar to my golf game, my follow through is short, leaves me a wicked slice. I mean well, which isn't worth a hill of beans I know this. Ever wonder why people have vanity license plates? What is really annoying is the vanity license plates I can't figure out - now that bothers me - I like the bumper sticker about being the change you wish to see - that's why I keep cutting my own hair - still waiting to see that change, maybe when I get to Malone and those good hair cutting scissors! Yeah, let me get my hands on those bad boys. Someone said, Einstein I think, "If you always tell the truth you never have to remember anything." Now that is a good plan. Plan being operative because always telling the truth is a near impossibility. When my hair was Smurf red and Lucille Ball out of control a lot of people had to say they liked it - When it comes to big stuff though, tell the truth - even when the truth might hurt - Better to have your armed severed quickly and completely and bleed slowly. What else do you wonder about? What are chicken nuggets? What part of any meat is a medallion? I thought a medallion was a medal? Why doesn't Subway put the mayonnaise on the bread? I prefer it better on the bread, the bread is dry - and when they put it on the meat the veggies slide all over the meat - it is messy. Why would they do a movie with a bunch of once were action movie dudes? They are really too old for that kind of movie - I mean really too old. They should have made it a comedy, with the action dudes in semi-retirement getting into a scuffle at the local grocery store over some produce - not given them guns and made them half naked and trying to beat up one studs - and why is the governor of CA in that movie? I hope whatever his royalties are go to the public employees forced to take furlough days, or maybe reopen a few parks; He better not take that money and spend it on a Hummer or whatever his plans are for November when he is no longer Governor.
Ever wonder why all people who have 2 million dollars don't just give $50,000 to a random stranger? How cool would that be? Where exactly does a luxury tax go? Ever wonder if I am just crazy? I do. Though I know I am not crazy. I am crystal clear sane - that is my problem. Really, too much clarity in the questioning and a lack of availability in finding the answers. Oh, I will keep looking. Somethings will come to me. In the meantime...Ever wonder how they get the filling in the Hostess Cupcakes?
